Shedding is cathartic

The 20-year-old chain link fence is going to fence heaven. Yesterday morning.

Filled the 20-yard dumpster.

The crew of four did in half a day what would have taken me a week (or longer) to do as a do-it-yourselfer.

Shedding is cathartic.

i believe stress is insidiously induced by clutter and “what-if-i-need-this-someday”.

Why?

Because shedding makes me come alive.

The margin (breathing room) shedding creates is inspiring.

Pack light so you can carry more

Sanibel Island Beach in winter
We packed light. No chairs, no towels, no blankets. But time to burn…so i laid flat on my back by the edge of the sea while Cheryl combed the water’s edge for sea shells.

It’s quite liberating to not worry about “creating a mess”.

 

Super Bowl 52 score
“I’m going to Disney World”. Last night was a first for the city of Philadelphia.

 

Pack light so you can carry more.

Much was accomplished yesterday, Super Bowl (52) Sunday.

Days like yesterday remind me that doing nothing and taking life as it comes isn’t just something for younger adults still living at home.

Paper and notes everywhere stresses me

Progress often always requires a time and money investment. Time to learn, choose, and implement.

 

MacBook Pro migration
Change and improvement require a time and energy investment upfront – benefits aren’t realized until later.

 

Home office
Yesterday, we finished setting up his MacBook Pro – the newest Mac.

 

MacBook Pro finger id
Finerprint security id now available on a laptop.

 

Paper and notes everywhere stresses me.

Beginning of the year (January) often brings new focus on improvements and new ambitions.

This is on top of last year’s habits to improve our focus and ambitions.

And so it goes.
