200+ books are up for the taking, ten crates of papers have been reduced to two, two-draw filing cabinets, dust collectors have been given away, and now onto the clothes. Yes, the clothes. Ten plus years worth of sad, uncoordinated pieces that would be better suited for a textile artist, crafter, or upcycler, with the [...]
My original relocation goal was to be a Reverse Weekender: I’d live within a 2-hour drive to Brooklyn, spending my weekdays creating my art + wellness + farming + self-sufficient homestead and my weekends immersing myself in Brooklyn culture. But the plan wasn’t to do it alone. And now that I am by myself in [...]
I’m sitting here, stuck, again, overwhelmed by this next round of purging. I haven’t bought anything new in a while, and while I also haven’t brought in much stuff over the past couple of months, I still feel like there’s still so much left to get rid of. But so far, I’ve: [...]
A couple of weeks of overindulging on refined flour and lack of proper sleep have me nursing a mild sinus infection and giving me an excuse to stay in bed and watch old serials on Netflix. I’ve just finished season 3 of Torchwood and decided to see what the fuss of Doctor Who is about. [...]
I’m back from a weekend in Syracuse, NY where I attended the NYS Ag Society meeting. It was a long weekend of tours and debates and discussions about agriculture. I had a lot of fun, and as usual, met some really interesting people and came home with a ton of ideas for my other business. [...]
A major part of this purging I’ve undergone this past month and a half was really not about getting rid of all this STUFF. Yes, this STUFF needed to GO. But this process really was about getting down to the accountability of how I got here (overwhelmed, stuck, unhappy) in the first place. I wasn’t [...]
Yesterday marked a MAJOR accomplishment for me: In just two weeks, I cleared out stacks and stacks of papers, magazines, and books that have been weighing me down for years. This is a milestone, considering that I gave myself six weeks to get all of this paper out (I hope to be done with the [...]
To me, anyway. If you let my mother tell it, she’d say it stopped working for me when I had to start giving gifts. She’s never wrong and knows me better than I know myself, so I never tell her that the reason why I liberated myself from her idea of Christmas is because it [...]
I am a hoarder. Of the information variety. But not like those people on those reality TV series where you can barely get into the apartment, have infestations, rotting food, and dead animals buried under piles of STUFF and are caving in floors and whatever else is clearly a mental illness that refuse to I [...]
