Just bought tickets to see the Kronos Quartet perform tomorrow night with the WSO! Yay! My goal is to get to a symphony or chamber music concert 12 times this year.

How I did it: Giving up animal products for me has been about listening to my body's reluctance to eat them!When I was in college, I became wary of red meat and ate much less of it, until I was rarely eating it, then stopped eating it all together. Then I ate less and less chicken until I was eating it so rarely that it made me sick when I did. So that was it for meat!At first I was a pasta and potato chips vegetarian, but I wised up and started eatin… Read how I did it…
First hike of the year! An afternoon spent along the Capilano River while visiting Vancouver. A grey, cold day but lots of green and brown to enjoy.
I’m planning to move at least twice in the coming year, and when I go, I’d love to be down to 100 items to fit into a backpack, a suitcase and a box. No furniture will be coming with me!
I’ve been decluttering papers and clothes for the last few months – plan is to scan personal papers to have them on a DVD or 2 (and backed up online) rather than in several boxes!
I travelled with just a backpack for 6 weeks a few months ago and found it incredibly freeing. Moving somewhere warmer will help too!
