One From the List

There is something extraordinarily satisfying about completing projects that have been looming overhead for many months. A big task I wanted to take on this summer was working on reorganizing my office room to get it to be more functional.

There are still a few minor things to do (putting a few more things away, moving some books around, decorating some of the bare walls a little more), but all in all it's good. It took less time than I thought, really. It was just one day of work (plus a night or two a while ago).

I had quite a few things that I finally am throwing away -- mostly in the form of old notes and such from college that I thought I'd refer back to but haven't even thought about -- which has reduced the clutter a lot and makes it more organized. [I feel like my old roommate Brenda would be proud of me being a bit less of a pack rat and embracing minimalism a bit more. :)]

Cross one more major thing off the Summer To Do list, and move on to some others.

...like really getting in the zone for school prep during this last month of break. *gulp*

         .....and blogging more often. 

(among other adventures, of course.)
