So while I learned a lot from you, and don’t regret getting to know you, we’ll never make it as a couple. We just want different things.
Happy 14th Anniversary Main Street Yoga!
This Thursday, March 1st, is the studio’s 14th anniversary. I remember buying the mats and the blankets. Ordering and putting together office furniture, designing a logo and ordering a sign, setting up a bank account as a DBA (Doing Business As). It was this new, exciting venture, full of risk, full of hope. We were … Continue reading Happy 14th Anniversary Main Street Yoga!
Giving Up Procrastination For Lent
I was going to do something for Lent, but never got around to deciding what. I don’t want to “give up” anything; I want to add something. I want a new challenge, a new activity, a new project. I did the digital declutter in January and started a book club in February, now I really … Continue reading Giving Up Procrastination For Lent
My Rules for a Book Group
Last night was the first meeting of the book group. At this first meeting, I felt I needed to leverage my power as Group Instigator and Generous Benefactor Of Meeting Space, to impose a vision, my vision, of how this should roll. Without being too overbearing, but, I hope, making it clear that my continuing … Continue reading My Rules for a Book Group
Defending The Beauty Of My Kitchen
I can’t tell you how much I’m still thrilled with the new kitchen. I’m noticing how the light is changing in there as the season changes day by day. I fall in love with this new space every day. Ever since the renovation I have been especially sensitive to clutter and mess. I no … Continue reading Defending The Beauty Of My Kitchen
Digital De-Clutter Re-Cap
It was a hard, but insightful month. I hope I can stay aligned.
Digital De-clutter Week 3: The Big Takeaway
Yesterday I broke down and bought a paper paper. (Real newspapers are allowed on this Digital Declutter.) I got The Sunday New York Times. It was an irritating and filthy experience. And I’m not even referring to the content. I forgot how newspapers make your hands black, and how you can’t adjust the font or … Continue reading Digital De-clutter Week 3: The Big Takeaway
Digital Declutter Week 2: News Creep
I’m succumbing to a little bit more “news feed creep” than is probably “legal.” It’s hard to escape. Even when I think I’ve barred all the entrances, I’ll find myself innocently opening a Google Search, and bam, right there below the search bar, sits a tantalizing bit of “Trending News.” And what do I do? … Continue reading Digital Declutter Week 2: News Creep
Digital De-Clutter Update: Week 1
The good news: Instead of trolling Facebook, I'm reading Homer. The bad news: I'm still sneaking into news feeds.
Digital De-Clutter Day 1
I'm sitting here suffocating in calendars and planners. It's not a bad way to die, actually. Today is New Years Day and I'm a little hung over from too much champagne last night, but before I went to bed I remembered to delete from my phone: Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. I also deleted The New … Continue reading Digital De-Clutter Day 1
