Sometimes you write a blog post and forget to post it. Oops.
April was a pretty great month. See, in February, I got summoned for grand jury duty in DC. Grand jury in DC is a five-week, five-day per week commitment. In short, it's a full-time job. Except, I already have a full-time job, one that keeps me very, very busy. I dreaded my jury summons and what my life would look like being at jury duty Monday through Friday from 9-5 in a windowless room without access to a cell phone or a computer (yes, seriously) and then working every evening.
On my first day of jury duty, I reported to the courthouse and, after several hours of processing, learned that they had selected one too many jurors. With Katniss Everdeen speed, I volunteered as tribute and was released from grand jury summons to petit jury service, which I finished that day. For the next five weeks, I woke up every single morning grateful that I didn't have to go to jury duty. Sometimes, it's the little things.
With my life back, I dove right into a pretty relaxing month. Here's a look at how it went in numbers:

With my life back, I dove right into a pretty relaxing month. Here's a look at how it went in numbers:
Miles Run:
Minutes of Yoga: 90...if you count an hour-long barre class I went to as yoga. Ouch.
Books Read: 2 (I'm pretty behind on my Goodreads challenge)
Trips Taken: 1 13 hour trip to Detroit (to be recapped soon!)
New Recipes Made: Ouch...I was really lazy in the kitchen in April and The Pilot did most of the cooking for me.
Blog Posts Written: 3
30 Before 30 Items Completed: 0 but I'm one ballpark closer to seeing them all!
Highlights:
- Not being on jury duty and crossing another ballpark off my list with Holly!
- Running The GW Parkway Classic
Lowlights:
- Feeling burnt out from running and training. I took a lot of time off last month and, while I think it's what I needed, I felt pretty lazy.
Since it's already the middle of May, I'll skip "the month ahead" and let you read all about May in a few weeks.
What's new with you? How have your last few weeks shaped up?
