Is it still summer? Hmm, I’m going to go by the official season status and assume that it’s still summer.

The long weekend was fantastic. Incredible weather. The kind of weather we prayed for all summer.

Helped Ryan & Danielle move into their new place. Followed by beer and pizza, and a wonderful impromptu gathering which turned into a fun evening. Spent another day sitting and reading in the sun drinking coronas, being happy. Monday was about doing a few chores, enjoying mojitos and visiting with some friends.

This week is very busy in a good way.

This weekend is a Yacht Rock themed party (yay!).

Life is being good to me.

I recently got rid of a sleeping bag that I got when I was about 13 years old.

Ouch!

Can’t believe I kept that thing for so long. How humiliating to actually admitt this to strangers.

I cut out some of the fabric from the inside and have saved it to use in my quilt (another goal that is taking a quite a while to accomplish).

My place got a little out of control this summer, but I’ve got it back under control. Things are organized and I am happily downsizing.

Less is more.

I have this awful tendency about starting things, but then losing interest and not following through.

I the early stages, my enthusiasm is almost blinding and I am all geared to accomplish whatever it is I have set my mind too. But then I tend to get bored quickly. Hence I have many unfinished projects in my life (and to do lists) that mock me.

This website is proving useful, because I’m somewhat more accountable for the things I say I’ll do (even if just to strangers).

I’m wonderful how I’ll ever be able to mark this as complete.
I don’t think it’s fair to just tick it off my list the moment I follow through with something. I’ll need to keep the momentum up for a while before I can actually brag about changing my habits.

I’m really trying though.
