"I try to break the day up into units of time like Hugh Grant in About a Boy.

Hydrating face mask, one unit. New York Times, one unit, live pilates class with Julie Pujols Benoit 2 units, cooking a new pasta recipe, 1.5 units: a very long classic saga film you'd watch otherwise: 3 units!

When my siblings and I were little my mother used to remind us that

"only boring people get bored"

I thought it was such an annoying thing to say. But now I find myself repeating it to myself as a daily motivation to make the best of things right now!"
