Thirty-eight

This is almost two weeks overdue, but I wanted to keep these entries going. If last year was a year packed with new things, this year was one marked by paring down and slowing down:

When I think of the past year I think of decluttering my schedule. I stopped watching hockey regularly (that freed up lots of time in the Fall/Winter/Spring). I’ve stopped watching a lot of TV. I slowly pick through shows on Netflix/Amazon, at a rate of about an episode per week.

Instead, I’ve spent more time writing. Since the start of the year I’ve kept a pretty consistent journal, and I think it’s helped me with the official writing that I’m doing with A List Apart. I think one of the big challenges for me will be writing more consistently in between ALA columns.
