Haha, you are anticipating winter as I am dreading warmer weather. We'll have maybe another month of decent weather then it will be TOO HOT until November ;)

Re: people not asking how you're doing, I think if you speak freely about it, people will ask. I have one friend who went through treatment and realllly wanted to talk about something else so I ask briefly if she's doing well and let her lead that conversation.

I love the idea of a monthly round up, adding to my list of possible posts :D

Give yourself grace. That's what I teach each client of mine. We tend to beat ourselves up about silly small stuff, for not getting to some things, etc. Stop it! You're human, not perfect.

I am proud of you, for giving yourself grace.

February does feel like it went by in a blink. And there was very little goal tracking on my side. Looking forward to a reset in March and possibly posting either on substack or my blog.

I had to remind myself that it is a shorter month by at least two days 😜

Thank you for the book reviews. Trying to read more non-fiction this year. Definitely checking out Organizing for the Rest of Us.

It’s fantastic! I tried her first book and it didn’t land at all (but possibly because I was listening to an audiobook) but this one was fantastic!

It's been great so far. I'm already 85% through.

Most of the strategies aren't new to me - I'm more organized than I give myself credit for. But there's been a few gems I'm looking forward to implement.

Overall I can already see the benefit of decluttering and 5-minute daily pick ups.

Thanks again for the recommendation!
