Scenes from December | Silent Vlog

~ Elaine Howlin

Hello friends, please enjoy some relaxing scenes from my December. It was a nice month except for when my brother and his girlfriend tested positive for Covid and we all had to go into isolation. Thankfully, no one else contracted the virus.

Read a book with a green cover 📗 The first task from The Irish Readathon and most accessible since the book doesn't necessarily have to be Irish. These are all the green cover books on my shelf. Amazingly, there are hardly any! I discovered I have a lot of blue and black books but green is in short supply.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ➡️SWIPE➡️ March TBR for The Irish Readathon ☘️🇮🇪 Reading Tracker Calendar for March. Loads more templates in my highlights 🧡 The first part in a mini-series is up on the blog and channel today. I might be a little late with it, but I created a TBR of 32 books I'd like to read this year. I'm pretty bad with TBR's but an annual list of 32 books feels pretty achievable.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ These bookmarks are available as part of the Jane Austen Reading Journal Bundle in my Etsy store but I have some freebie printable bookmarks available on my blog today!! Hit the link in the bio to visit my blog, elainehowlin.com to get them. There are 4 bookmarks with vintage designs.⁠ I might be a little late but I finally have the flip-through of my completed 2020 reading journal up on my blog and YouTube now!! It was really a labor of love working on this journal throughout the year. I use a junk journal style for my reading journal so there are lots of vintage ephemera, tuck spots, and other junk to play with in the journal. It was a lot of fun to work on this throughout the year and it gave me so many ideas for my 2021 journal as well.⁠ “When you are five, you know your age down to the month. Even in your twenties, you know how old you are. I'm twenty-three you say, or maybe twenty-seven. But then in your thirties, something strange starts to happen. It is a mere hiccup at first, an instant of hesitation. How old are you? Oh, I'm--you start confidently, but then you stop. You were going to say thirty-three, but you are not. You're thirty-five. And then you're bothered, because you wonder if this is the beginning of the end. It is, of course, but it's decades before you admit it.”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Getting so close to The Irish Readathon now!! I just uploaded my TBR (to be read) to my YouTube channel 🎉 You can check it out on the blog as well where there are a few Instagram templates and a bit more info about the books.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ “Sometimes you need to scorch everything to the ground, and start over. After the burning the soil is richer, and new things can grow. People are like that, too. They start over. They find a way.”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
