Needs to be done eventually but is clearly not getting done so need a break from it being a numbered item:

I should delete the FB app from my phone as well! xo, Biana-BlovedBoston
ReplyDeleteYessss to deleting Facebook app! I only go to it via the mobile site now and love it!! We use plastic, BUT you might try a cleaned out/aired out pickle jar for the water. I'd be afraid it would spill if it topples but it's water so that's not as scary as sugary drinks or ones that could stain. We use them for tea and cold brew all the time. have a great weekend!!
ReplyDeleteI like when we're in a cycle of getting ready to move because I stop stocking up at the store. I only buy what we'll need immediately.
ReplyDeleteI deleted FB from my phone long ago and it's very freeing. I check it only at home, on my laptop, usually at night. Most people just post memes and videos anyway...it's not like I'm missing "news".
I hope you enjoy egg roll in a bowl! I love it. Could you look in to some sort of beer growler for the water? I think they sell them in what is essentially gallon sized. We started a new campaign with materials that say Voting is your super power.
ReplyDeleteThe boardwalk bike ride sounds pretty perfect. We just bought bikes earlier this year.. hoping to get out and bike around the neighborhood a bit.. the youngest just started with the training wheels..
ReplyDeletedinner tonight is a version of an egg roll in a bowl!

I like this list!!! I deleted the Facebook app two years ago, FREEDOM!
ReplyDeleteI’m so guilty of stocking up on things that I don’t need, especially makeup products! The Sephora sale is usually my main driver, and I need to be better about it!
ReplyDeleteAmen to decluttering! That's on the top of my list for summer things to do while I'm off work. I've simply had enough. And Amen to selling stuff you're not using! That's a win-win! I love the sound of a bicycle ride on the boardwalk.. so idyllic and peaceful.
ReplyDeleteI'm working on reducing clutter, too. Hello, spring cleaning...
ReplyDeleteI need to delete Facebook all together, but definitely at least the app from my phone. It's hands down my least favorite social channel. And YES to voting even in the primaries <3
ReplyDeleteGood to jot everything down so you can cross things off the list and not forget your initial plans and intentions. Are you deleting the FB app just to reduce distraction or for another reason? Emily @ Martinis & Bikinis
ReplyDeleteAh - I deleted FB from my phone during the hard time last year and it was bliss. I did eventually add it back but it's on a swipe screen away from my usual apps so I don't see that blue/white 'f' right off the bat. I meant to do early voting this year and never made it to the voting place. Looks like tomorrow's the day and there *better* be a line -- it's the one place I don't mind standing in line with a long wait, because it means my community cares.
ReplyDeleteEgg roll in a bowl looks DELICIOUS. Also, I 100% need to have less clutter. I'm planning a garage sale soon and I'm SO determined to get all the excess cleaned out and cleaned up in time for that!
ReplyDeleteI need to delete the facebook app too. I love egg roll in a bowl, a great filling and cheap recipe!
