| Hello! |
March already? Weren't we just welcoming in the new year?
The speed with which time flies is precisely what makes it important to make sure our time is well spent. My aim is to help you do just that ~ ultimately living a more authentic, purposeful and happy life, for self, others and the environment...
This month's e-newsletter is chock full of ideas, inspiration and information. Thanks (in advance) for reading it and for your continued support!
Currently, I'm in the midst of my business plan and financial projections. Nevertheless, feel free to email a reply, comment on the blog, text or call with questions, suggestions, feedback ~ or just to say hello.
Taking a moment to touch base would be the perfect "reason" for me to take a break from the important planning and number-crunching processes ~ activities that don't exactly get me energized the way sharing with people does!
Carpe Diem!
Nancy
p.s. Want to find out how you can still help us reach the 50 suit goal we set for the February DeClutter For Good business attire drive?

| Picture This @ Time Well Spent |
A picture is worth a thousand words... I've gathered some great pics on my new photoblog that give a sneak peak at the types of things you might find at Time Well Spent. Heck, you might even find yourself making them!
Click on the underlined links to see how forgotten sweaters, suits and ties too far gone to wear, old game pieces, doll clutter, doorknobs and more, can be transformed into beautiful products to make or purchase at Time Well Spent, for yourself or as a one-of-a-kind gift...
Kiddie Bling ~ Cool fashion jewelry from Barbie clutter, you have to see it to believe it!
For those who have caught the creative repurposing bug,

To Click or Not to Click ~ You Decide! |

Following are some monthly highlights ~ a few posts I've chosen to share for one reason or another, including news of some local events that I thought I'd share. Read more by clicking on the bold title of anything that catches your attention ...
An impressive line-up of independent films with subject matter spanning the globe is happening NOW in the City of Salem, Massachusetts, a true year-round treasure, celebrating the arts as well as history in a downtown hub filled with shops and restaurants for locals and tourists alike.
Inspired by the year-long celebration of Ipswich's 375th Anniversary, this annual event raises money for local artists and the school's arts program (IMADA).
You mean you haven't heard of this yet? Check out my vision of what could be...
