The other day, feeling slightly overwhelmed by my schedule and all the things I'd like to be doing (difficult to acheive in the face of catching up on "This is Us" and/or falling asleep at 8:30 p.m. due to some of the children in this house and their refusal to sleep in past 6 in the morning) I decided I'd write out a few to-do items, including a revamp of this website, which is thankfully very easy because Squarespace basically does it for you.

As you can see, I've changed the look of the site. I'm still working on the details but so far like the simplicity, a kind of hilarious point to make considering there is no way I could create anything complicated.

I also fixed the closet situation, hanging and folding my clothes so that every morning doesn't begin with an existential crisis and, more practically, a depressing inability to find my jeans.

These are the things that rank as less-than-important on my radar, but often provide an inspiring burst of energy in other aspects of my life. I'm hoping I can tackle a few more of these projects in the coming days while inevitably housebound due to the snowstorm threatening the entire east coast, committing myself to small bursts of productivity in between bouts of reading good books, and explaining to people that if they run down the stairs one more time, something will happen and I don't know what it is yet, but they are not going to like it at all.
