Changes

I have finished a few projects and abandoned others since I last wrote here. For now, I'm trying to keep my domestic life clean and frugal, which means facing the fact that some projects are not meant to be, and that others will require a lot more effort than I have been putting into them. One big part of the latter half is my writing. I used to flex those muscles frequently and fervently, but now they have atrophied to the point where even my academic writing has suffered. I wanted to change that last semester, but some part of my adult psychology shifted, and I ended up failing at much of what I was trying to accomplish. I did not even begin many of those changes in earnest.

Today, I'm trying to get a lot done. I've already cleaned the kitchen and vacuumed. I also want to finish a few crafty projects, order my textbooks, and other such beginning of the semester activities - last minute revels in freedom from anything but a diurnal lifestyle and limited budget, organizing and mind clearing to start this new year and semester as clean and smooth as possible.

I've always been a words person, but I will do my best to sit back and take a few pictures as well. I live with far more potential project models than I used to, so that is no longer an excuse, especially since several of these projects are for those folks.

2013, let's dance.
