A nice week

It’s been almost three weeks since the end of Digital Detox Week and I’ve yet to write about my experiences during my break from social media and TV. The week was incredibly refreshing and it gave me a glimpse of a life free from the distractions of my consumer habits. On the first day, I sat down and began a list of “best practices” that […]

After reading and contemplating a blog post by Tony Steward, I’ve decided to follow the example of Michael Hyatt and […]

A new friend, an old friend, and two new blogs

There is little point in this blog post except to tell you about a couple of friends, one old and one new, who have started blogging recently. One, Joanna Hoyt, is a fairly politically liberal quaker with whom I grew up. Just today she started her blog, Living as if the Truth was true. The other is a fellow UMA Computer Information Systems student who […]
