Well, I dropped the ball on my Wednesday #nerdlution check-in post, and I admit it's getting more difficult to keep up with my daily commitments.  I'm finding that my conversion rate is about 50%, meaning I either complete half the tasks or I complete them all, but have to cut the time or give less effort.  Surprisingly, this still makes me feel good.  Maybe it's because I've recently embraced the idea that goals can be reached in many ways.  Sometimes in one fell swoop, sometimes with one small step and then another.  Sometimes with fierce and focused dedication, sometimes with spontaneous choices and flexibility.  Because even while the goal holds constant, our lives go on.  And adjustments need to be made in the moment.  Hmm?  Maybe I'm learning more than I thought from this nerdlution movement.  Love that.

I'm extremely grateful to home-ology, the eco-minded home interiors boutique, for partnering with me on a Welcoming 2014 Art Sale.  And they've just done a write-up on the event in their newsletter. Thanks home-ology, and thank you for including the kind words about wildflowers, my YA ecotopian mystery.  Here's the newsletter link for any Writes Reader who'd like more information:
