Y’all, I just get so overwhelmed sometimes by all the information. My email is constantly overflowing with news, memoir training videos and articles about writing. Today I woke up from my mid-day nap and declared today a day to clean house. Decluttering my office corner, I scanned, I shredded, I deleted. I feel so much better!

Until it creeps up again, of course. I’ve been working to systematically unsubscribe from a lot of the emails I get regularly and fail to read, but it still builds up. I have to be honest with myself, these emails I think I’m going to read? They are causing way more stress than joy. So I’m Mario Kondo-ing that crap. Monday is my weekly “garbage day” because the truck comes on Tuesday mornings to pick up our trash, so this action was fitting. And it sets me up for the rest of the week. Now I think I can relax… maybe? It’s always a struggle for me. Oh, the irony that I always have to try so hard to relax. IYKYK. I’m going back to work. Just wanted to pop in here and say hello with that random update. Have a wonderful day, folks.
