April dashed past so fast, I barely noticed it leave! I’m glad it’s finally warming up a bit and things are blooming.
I wrapped up April in this fashion:

Successes:

Disappointments:
April just kind of moved along. I’m not really disappointed by anything, just trying to get everything done. I was frustrated by a client, and won’t work with that particular client again, but things happen.
While I was in it, April felt somewhat frustrating, but now that I look back, it was better than I expected.
