Quality over Quantity

Gold2

I didn’t mean to take a little hiatus from the blog.  I really didn’t.  I missed you!

But every time I sat down to write a post, writer’s block firmly planted itself between my fingers and the keyboard.  I could have slogged through and published something – but I didn’t.  If a post wasn’t going to be high quality, I wasn’t going to publish it.

The whole “quality over quantity” theme has been dominating my life in the past few weeks.

I’ve become allergic to the overstuffed drawers and piles of clothing dominating my bedroom – a space I need to be a sanctuary, but resembles a haywire dressing room.  The stack of unread magazines on an accent table sends a shiver down my spine.

And please don’t look inside my fridge – the number of take-out containers is frightening.

I’m just over it.  Over too much crap, over feeling overwhelmed, over it all.

My extremist personality has me yearning to overhaul everything right away.  My wiser self knows that a major overhaul will blow up in my tired little face.

I’m starting small with each of these changes.  I just filled two Fashion Project bags and a Cuyana box with clothing ready for donation.  I prepped smoothie and juice ingredients in individual bags immediately after my grocery run.  And while I can’t promise a full week’s of posts, I can assure you that whatever I publish this week (and from now on) is content I’m proud of.

Could this be growing up?  If so, I don’t hate it.

Fill me in – how’s everything going with you?  How are you spending the last few weeks of summer?  Don’t leave out a single detail – I want to know everything!
