Something I thought about:
- I’ve been trying to decrease activation energy wherever possible. Last week I rearranged my office to get my craft materials within reach. Then I wrote out where I was getting stuck with various writing projects, and it’s really about having too many setup steps — projects in too many different places, notebooks, files. So I’ve been consolidating everything. Now my craft projects are organized and portable, and I’ve managed to organize the two writing projects I want to tackle first. Just in time to start chauffering the child to after school activities again!
Something I did:
- Started back to school prep with the child
- Weeded clothes and shoes from both of our closets to donate
- A lot of meetings, proposal writing, and various other PMing
- Planted some seeds and repotted some plants
Something I read:
- War and Peace slow read chapters
- Titanium Noir by Nick Harkaway
- The Garden Against Time: In Search of a Common Paradise by Olivia Laing
