The two books I am currently reading are:

Good book so far, I just started reading it.

This is an awesome read it has helped me learn new skills, which I am using and they work great. Yay! I was doing okay before this has just helped make it more seamless. Great Read

I am also listening to on audio Robert Jordan’s Series “The Wheel of Time” book #1 The Eye of the World. Long way to go on this one as I am on disk 5 and the book has 22 plus disks.

Lately , my pen has been slow and I have been mousing around watching the news in the morning instead of writing my letters. Thus my to reply stack was growing steadily. So I have turned off the television and started writing more without that distraction. My day starts off so much better when I take the time to collect my thoughts and put them down on paper.

Here are a few photos of what I have been up to lately.

I am also going to start using my bill payer organizer to file my letters to reply in, because I am not using it for bills anyways.

Sometimes One Just Has To Let Go

Easter eggs // Ostereier (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Today after did our Easter Egg Hunt and baked with the kids I got to relaxing a bit. I took out my box where I store my pen friend letters and started looking through it. I was amazed at how many letters have not been replied to me in over a years time. I honestly don’t know why I saved them for this long. I guess I thought well maybe, just maybe the person would write back the optimist in me. (ha ha)

Well I took the time today to sort through them and dispose in the round file all those letters that were taking up precious room in my letter box. Now as I see it I have ample room for the pen friends I have that write regularly and want to continue a pen friend relationship.

Now I have to make sure I prune my letter box with more frequency as a way to go with the minimalist state of mind our family is in for this season of our life.
