D.I.Y. Rock Star Rewind: Dreams about dogs… 🦴 (July 2021)
The truth is… I have been having dreams about dogs lately. I hate to be the one to break it to you, but I am NOT a fan of dogs. I actually prefer cats. But since I am SEVERELY allergic to them, we remain pet-less. ….But these were NOT dreams about pet ownership. Gab & Jam Ep 175 Is there really such a thing as a great song? (video: http://bit.ly/Ep175greatsongvid and podcast: http://bit.ly/Ep175greatsongpod ) What’s the problem? I have analyzed what I THINK they’re about a
D.I.Y. Rock Star Rewind: Thrown in Facebook Jail… Again 🙄 (May 2021)
Yep, in trouble… —I originally had a completely different message for you all this month. I wanted to talk about the need to plan and about how excited we are that we seem to be coming out of the pandemic (and what that will mean for the D.I.Y. Rock Star). But then I found myself in Facebook jail… which caused me to pivot and talk about the importance of diversifying your methods of distribution. Again.

Is there a “sexy” was to say it? 🥓 (April 2021)
So, yeah, there’s no sexy way to say it. What I am looking for is a way to use the idea of “efficiency” as my word of the year. You know… that idea of working smart and not hard. When tasked with choosing a word for the year—an idea that appealed to me from the Happier podcast, Episode 254—that’s the idea that has been drawing me back.

He caught me cheating…😳 (March 2021)
"Fun" theme... —I am not going to deny that we’ve been having some fun with this theme, but this is EXACTLY what Bruce said to me right after he “caught” me going down that digital planner rabbit hole….. 🐇 And right after shooting the Plum Paper Planner unboxing video (https://bit.ly/plumplannerunbox3). I couldn’t help but recognize the truth of the matter and that’s what gave rise to our slogan for this month. ….. It also has given us some sobering realization…... Plum Pape
D.I.Y. Rock Star Rewind: Not Twisting into a Pretzel Anymore (January 2021)
Here’s the backstory… —Okay, so our family watched a movie called Spree this last week and it highlighted one of the issues that has been on our minds during this last patch of time and that is trying to please people without any real consideration of your own needs and values. No spoilers here…. ⚠️ I don’t want to spoil it for you, but I assure you that we are in no danger of going on a mad killing spree (as is portrayed in this movie). However, we KNOW that perhaps some of
D.I.Y. Rock Star Rewind: Big Change was Necessary… (December 2020)
Big Change was Necessary.... Every now and then, I get restless. When I get like that, I HAVE to make what feels like a big change in order to feel motivated; to care, to create, to keep going. I find myself at a doorway that I WANT to go through, but that I need to see from a different perspective. That’s what big change does for me. Planning? The other thing that a big change does for me is it helps me get into the spirit of planning exciting new things. And that’s exactly
