Can you get rid of 5 things today?
I’ve been working on decluttering and heading towards a more minimalist lifestyle. No, my apartment is not stark white and empty (yet) but I am looking forward to the day were my piles of items/paper are a thing of the past. *models like Vanna White the empty glass desk in front me* Just kidding, I don’t have a glass desk. I would probably run into it. For now, I’ve made it a mission to get rid of 1 to 5 things on a weekly basis, with the goal of turning it into a daily habit.

Thanksgiving Friday
Yesterday many families across the U.S. celebrate Thanksgiving. It was a great time to reflect on everything to be thankful for.

Pretty short, but sometimes you just don’t know how to say it. A special shout-out to the Ferguson’s for hosting us this Thanksgiving. Love you dearly.
How I found my phone at 10PM on the street
We went to a birthday party. I lost my phone. Sound familiar? There was no booze in this story. *WHAT?* I want to share with you a great benefit to having an android and a google account.

Some I bought because I didn’t have one right before a meeting, or because it was cute, or professional, European, it was part of a system… You get it. And as useful that they were at the time, I didn’t have a plan. *Reader asks* Why you need a plan for a notebook? Good question. The notes that I take… are not meant to collect dust after the fact. I want to get more out of what I write if I’m going to take the time to record it. *Begin to speak to…
Update on 30-day Social Media Challenge
I started the 30-day Social Media challenge on November 5th. The objective was, and still is, to post some type of content on any of the three locations: HQ – tracyaltheide.com aka my blog aka my home base aka where all the posts happen first… (unless their edited and then drafted and then just sit collecting dust…) Instagram @TracyAltheide – the home of pics that you work really hard to make artsy and sometimes just hope the first filter makes it look epic. Snapchat @Tracy.Altheide – the place where all funny faces are welcomed. Seriously: weird ones, fun ones, pretty ones, bored ones. It’s all good. So how is it…
