I’m a numbers girl. Maybe it’s the list-maker in me, or the analytical side. But I do tend to focus on numbers. This year I have multiple numbers-based lists going on – maybe it’s a bit too much! 20 for 2020 to RELEASE (9 done or started) 101 New Things Tracking (22 to date) 52 … Continue reading Living my Life by the Numbers
One of the to-do things on my list when I retired was to Organize our Photos. Over the years, before digital, our vacation photos ended up in boxes. A few vacations, I did manage to put together a photo-album with a narrative. But there were hundreds of loose pictures including many old family photos, packed … Continue reading Photo Memories

I am a perfectionist and trying hard to … Continue reading Living the &

I had big plans before the New Year. I created a "20 in 2020" list, put together a brief Winter Snowbird Action Plan, started my new tracking lists (new things, books read, daily gratitude), and printed out my Release Workbook. I was ready to tackle our second snowbird season and really work on my Release … Continue reading Is it Procrastination?
With the first step of our multi-step move plan underway, it's been a hectic couple of weeks. So this post is just a sampling of things I've been musing on this month.
