Happy Little Bits of #Whitespace Christmas

December 17, 2014 by Aprille Leave a Comment

Having a whitespace (less stressed) Christmas sounded really good on a blog post, didn’t it? Ha-ha-ha.  In reality, I’ve been very very busy. However, not too stressed, so, there’s that.

August 20, 2014 by Aprille 16 Comments

On #whitespace, staying home, and tomato suckers

July 12, 2014 by Aprille 3 Comments

To know that saying no to the good and yes to the better; cutting out the busy and embracing the less-involved; to shunning the pin-worthy and grabbing hold of the easy; avoiding the surrounded and being okay with the lonely– It is better. It is best.

Waving the white flag: giving up and gaining #whitespace

May 29, 2014 by Aprille 10 Comments

Well ladies, I’ve dropped out of the rat race and I’m waving the white flag of surrender. Do you always have to give up something to gain something? I say yes. But the gain is always worth it.
