My March 2020 Reading Summary

I'm taking a break from my normal threads and instead will focus on my Monthly Reading Summary. Tomorrow I'll get back to my reading updates, new books and the Science Fiction novel threads, as applicable.

Not much happened today, no trips outside other than dog walks and doing a bit of spring yard work. I've got until 30 April until the sprinkler guys show up to turn on the system so I can work an hour a day and maybe be close to ready.. It was a very nice day today but I'm now stiff and sore and my hands are all chapped.. *sigh*

So with that minor complaint out of the way, on to my March summary.
