I’ve jumped into the Minimalist Experiment over the weekend.
Even after spending far too much time reading I wasn’t quite sure where to start. I wandered around the apartment, trying to decide. It occurred to me that I would do best with a neatened starting point. I have a tendency to leave a trail of clutter [...]
After writing out a big, long list of links that I thought might be helpful, it occurred to me that a series about minimalism probably doesn’t need every link that I could possibly find. So I went back through and deleted the links that I felt were the least helpful.
You don’t have to follow all [...]
Do you ever think that your life is too complicated? That you have too much stuff? That you don’t have enough time for the truly important things in your life? I do.
Over the next month, I’m going to remedy this as I try the Minimalist Experiment.
Minimalism seems to be a theme that I have been [...]
I am an avid reader (who has been frustratingly without time for pleasure reading here recently.) With a wide range of interests, I have far too many options when it comes time to choose the next books to read. Even with this many options, I frequently find myself reading similar types of material. In order [...]
Nope, it’s not horse-back riding… I’m back on my bicycle, and it feels good! (so long as the hill is not too steep or long, of course.)

For you new readers, a photo scavenger hunt is exactly what it sounds like; a scavenger hunt where, instead of bringing [...]
Just like a sunset, sunrises provide an opportunity to see one of nature’s most frequent wonders. Watching the sun rise can give you a sense of fresh beginnings and is a wonderful way to start the day. It requires a bit of planning, however.
You need to know:
what time the sun comes up
a good place to [...]
How often do you take the time to really appreciate a beautiful sunset? Do you do more than look for a few seconds and comment/think how beautiful it is before you continue whatever you were doing? This is something that I often have a hard time with and am trying to work on.
I have heard [...]
Do you remember these things? I had one when I was younger and finally, out of frustration, put it back together by peeling off the stickers and putting them where they needed to be.
Recently, I decided that I wanted to finally “beat” this toy and requested one for Christmas. “It will be a good [...]
What do you do when you are driving aroudn town on your tractor, can’t find your friends, and are bored? If you are a particular young Finnish man*, you call the local radio station and try to talk your way into a free prize. There are no contests going on, no give-aways currently taking place, [...]
