The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up.
Reading this (skimming more like) because two separate friends have talked about it with me. And when 2+ people talk about a book... well, I gotta read it.
It's about cleaning and keeping things neat and getting rid of tons of crap that you don't need and only keeping things that "spark joy" in your life.
Some of it is applicable (in that I rearranged my sock drawer already), and I do want to declutter a lot of my things. But this slightly horrifies me:
"If you missed your chance to read a particular book, even if it was recommended to you
or is one you have been intending to read for ages, this is your chance to let it go. You may
have wanted to read it when you bought it, but if you haven’t read it by now, the book’s
purpose was to teach you that you didn’t need it. There’s no need to finish reading books
that you only got halfway through. Their purpose was to be read halfway. So get rid of all
those unread books."
!!! gahhh!!! nooooo :(

In other thoughts.... I kinda dislike blogger right now (interface and also their lack of support for an app). Mildly considering moving to wordpress.... -__-"

I also have yet to do a 2016 reflections, sigh. So not ready to resume real life.
