I started working on the winnowing inbox summer task. It’s hard for various reasons. Some of the newer messages just feel overwhelming.
I tried re-ordering to look at old messages first, and those make me sad, because they are full of missed opportunities. I did clear about a hundred of them a few days ago, but of course, about a hundred have come in since then, so I haven’t made much progress overall.
Goal: Inbox 0 by August 20th (end of summer break)
Previous: 1018 messages

Going to post a few garden pics, then try to do some more, then I’m meeting Lori for brunch at Cafe Culichi, then more e-mail and/or yard work, then a check in with orthopedic doc re: ankle (mostly better, not all better yet, sadly), then more e-mail and/or yard work, then this evening, a school board meeting.
Pictured, lilacs. They’re not super heavily-scented, not the way I remember lilacs from my youth, but when you stand at the kitchen counter, working beside them, the scent is lovely.
