I know, it’s still a long way until spring, but seriously, I feel like I’m trapped in George RR Martin’s Game of Thrones world. Between the depression and the SAD and the god-awful snow (seriously, there’s been like 60 inches of snow in the past month!), I feel like I’m smothered in cotton. So what …

Posted on January 11, 2015
I am thinking a lot about multitasking. I am always thinking about multitasking, because there is always so much to do. I really, really miss being a child at this point, because I could spend an entire afternoon sitting on the floor, reading. Or watching the clouds. Or sewing. And there was NOTHING else that …
(personal/writing) Thinking about time management
Posted on January 10, 2015
