Downsizing in 2009

Since the new year started so many things have happened it is hard to keep up. I finally got my desktop working again and proceeded to downsizing my projects and workload. I have waayyy too many things going on to focus the way I should. I started by eliminating email accounts I don't use often and a few other accounts and things to do that I really must stop doing in order to be productive and not be scattered all over the place. The downsizing is going well, slow - but well. When I finish, I should have a more managable workload, hopefully.

When I wrote and published my book in March of 2008, research said I needed a website. I did that. Next, I found I needed a blog for and about my book. Did that too. One thing lead to another and, before I knew it I had blogs, websites, and email accounts coming out my ears.

Well, enough already! I'm getting rid of some of it so I can concentrate on and make the few that I keep worth the time and effort. Whoever is going to buy the book will buy it anyway and, those who are not - won't - no matter how many or what kind of blogs and sites I drive myself crazy building.

Last week I had to put everything computer-related on hold because of a death in the family. I returned home late Friday evening, and now I'm playing catch-up again. With that said, there's nothing exciting to report, just wanted to say "hi" to you all.

I will add this though, when I visit around to your pretty and interesting spaces I wish I had time to fiddle and figure things out to make my space nicer. Since I don't have the time, I'll make myself content with looking at yours and reading your updates.

#1 on my list of things to do will be staying in touch with you, my friends. Thank you for your support and for always encouraging me.
