I love bookcrossing.com and its principle of committing random acts of literacy!
I worked on the first 4 chapters of the book in January. Really helpful. Largely common sense but framed in a way that helped me see why I was so unhappy with the work I’d been doing. Also, pivotal in my decision to switch to freelancing. Hopefully, the principles that I am putting into practice will help me make a success of this new venture.
I didn’t do very well with this one in January. I bought new running gear (shoes, shirt, bra) and started a sweater, which is almost finished. Oh, and I bought a jacket at Value Village. In my defense, what I did buy was very practical!
