Spring Cleaning

Spring has arrived and despite the fickle weather, I am inspired! The cherry blossoms have come and gone and April showers are bringing out beautiful flowers. My life could also use a bit o' spring..... spring cleaning that is! It is really amazing how things can pile up in a matter of 7 months in a studio apartment. Do I really need to save that bus ticket from my trip to Hokkaido? Will I really wear that shirt I HAD TO HAVE 3 years ago that still has the price tag on it? Let's face it: probably not.

Similarly, my computer is chuck full of music and pictures and movies that are taking up precious space and speed. My computer is more of a mess than my closets! Ironically, it is supposed to make my life easier! So it is time to organize those iTunes, delete those unwanted photos that no one should ever see and use my external drive the way it was meant to be used!

Lastly, spring has inspired me to get my life on track as well. (This is not only because bikini season is around the corner) I want to stay on top of my business, exercise, diet, and social life! I need to find a balance among all of the things that are important to me and make me happy......This is really beginning to sound like those New Year's resolutions I made several months ago..... oops...... Well, as I said before, there is always tomorrow!

So pour yourself a glass (for me it would be red wine) raise it up, and make a toast to spring! May it inspire us all to begin anew, plant some flowers, pay taxes, get rid of piles, lose weight, dust under the bed, and smile! -M
