It’s Saturday, I’m listening to a “clip show” retrospective version of “Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me,” and I’m trying to exercise my atrophied blogging muscles. I used to be a prolific long-form blogger, until Twitter, real Twitter, remodeled my brain to think in 240-character snippets. I have a desktop computer, and a wheezer of a laptop, that made this easy. And then I got more into wanting to say Something Important via my iPhone or my mini iPad, with their teeny on-screen keyboards.

As it’s NOT a boring book, I can read it faster than listening to it, without getting so relaxed I doze off. Wings of Fire, by Charles Todd, an Ian Rutledge mystery.

My sewing room serves multiple functions – guest room, computer room, exercise room, extra TV room… and it needs decluttering and reorganizing to make those functions work. #DeclutterChallenge2024 youtu.be/Y_XxkKGDe0o And my multipurpose room was full of Xmess stuff, badly arranged furniture, and clutter. Day 1 was Garbage Day. Days 2-3 were for clearing out magazines & books, but don’t have many, and they’re in my home office. So I rearranged the furniture to open up space for my training bike – goal is to get it set up this weekend. Then today, Day 4, was to get rid of…
