Normally, when you see my name and the words Carrot Ranch, you link them to the 99Word flash fiction stories I write.

This week, however, I have had the pleasure of joining this literary community as a guest columnist.

Is it Time to Start Spring Cleaning?

Recently, something happened quite by accident, sort of, at least it started out that way . . .

It was a busy week. Appointments, a pop-up book signing event, office duties, travel, accounting (ugh), and a wonderful overnight stay at our favourite B & B.

Each morning, something that is part of my daily schedule is to peruse my emails. I know, what’s so unusual about that, we all do it, right? But, what I found myself doing was scanning for notifications from people I knew and glossing over, without opening, newsletters and other bits of information I have signed up to receive. I didn’t even delete them or file them for later. I just left them there accumulating to almost a point of no return, almost!

A decision had to be made. Leave well enough alone and let all of this mail arrive without opening it and ultimately hitting the read later (which I don’t seem to get around to doing), or just delete (which seems to be the norm). The other option is to do some serious house cleaning by unsubscribing to a bunch this mail. The latter is the most realistic because let’s face it, if I keep getting them and not bother opening them, they are considered of no use to me, so why bother wasting the time of having them arrive?

Perhaps, at one time, the writer of these daily, weekly and monthly notices was of interest to me because of projects I was working on or general data they provided. What seems normal in all of this, is if I have moved on, so should they.

Today must be the day to start spring cleaning. The sun is shining, it’s too cold to be wandering around outside and since I can now see about 60% of my desk after purging and filing stuff away, it must be the day to clear out the emails.

How do you keep on top of the emails, subscriptions or otherwise, in your inbox?

Here are a few more inbox thoughts.

Wow! It has been hectic, hectic, hectic for the website nymphs over the past few weeks. They are happy with the result, and so am I. What a great way to start my birthday week!

Don't worry, everything you were used to seeing is still there. Now it has it's own special place to call home. The links can be found in footer area of of the website.

Stop by for a visit. We would love to know what you think.

Will there be more changes? Nothing as radical as what we've done on this go-round; but, yes, there will always be tweaks and updates.
