Blank Pages

There is something about the blank pages of a calendar that I just love. I am not sure if it is that I am a planner and I just love writing stuff down or that the pages are open for so many good things to happen. Maybe it is a little of both. Anyways, the last couple of days I have been busy organizing my life. Somehow the stuff in my life started piling up around me and I was feeling overwhelmed. I also come from the philosophy that less is more, or at least when it comes to owning stuff. The stuff begins to own you! When you have to move it from one place to another, maintain it, or clean it then that might be a sign that you have too much stuff in your life. It steals your time away from which you can't get back. Windex has been my friend for the last couple of days and I have made good progress. Except for a few drawers everything is back in its place, junk has been thrown away or recycled, and all is good with the world. I have also turned off the TV the last couple of weeks and gotten back to what I love reading. I can't wait to tell you about some of the books I have been reading. So here is to a new year with blank pages of wonderful things to be written on them. Cheers!
