Deleted.
I receive over 100 emails a day across my two main email accounts on a slow day. Of those emails I typically delete about 25% outright, read 25% before deleting or filing them, respond to another 25% and retain the remaining 25% emails in files to read or respond to later. On a day when I am [...]

Am I style-savvy or therapy-worthy?
Michael has been putting additional shelves in my closet this weekend. The goal is to provide additional storage in areas of unused space. This makes me very happy as my closet capacity was heretofore maxed out. I dream of having a big luxurious walk-in closet the size of a room, but until Cheyenne goes off [...]
