Good day!
Happy Memorial Day Weekend.
I hope you have a fantastic time with the people you love.
Here’s 10 simple things that you can do right now to immediately improve the quality of your life…
1. Get a teapot.
2. Have a bit of a tidy-up. Then have a nice cup of tea, made in your new teapot.
3. Put the phone back on its stand thing. It looks untidy lying down like that.
4. Get a mac. If you’re going to be sat in front of a computer you might as well make it a nice looking one. Like my beautiful silver iMac. Even if it crashes, you don’t get mad ’cause it’s just so pretty…
5. Tidy your computer desktop. You’ll never achieve Productivity Zen Mastery with all that crap in the way. So put those icons away somewhere. Do this: http://kinkless.com/article/kinkless_desktop
5. Buy loads of toothpaste, shampoo, soap, toilet rolls etc. Having to buy that stuff all the time is annoying.
6. Always have scissors, wrapping paper and tape in an easily accessible place. Wrapping up presents is painful enough at the best of times. Why make it harder on yourself?
7. Drink good wine. It’s nicer than the cheap stuff, you know. You deserve it.
8. Go outside. Go for a walk. Get some air. Sit under a tree. Hug it if you like. Just get outdoors. It’s good for you.
And from Mrs. Jalopy…
9. Paint your nails. It makes life funner.
10. Carry tissues at all times.
Ta-ra! See you tomorrow!
JJ Jalopy.

Lovely list!
May I suggest for #6 to use gift bags and tissue paper? It’s way easier and you can put away the scissors and tape (more time for tea!).
In our circle of friends, we keep reusing the gift bags and paper, too.

Wonderful list. Have a bit of a tidy-up is definitely what I need today and then I’m not sure if I’ll go with the tea option or #7 – (With the state of affairs at our house, I’m definitely leaning toward #7!

I will not get a Mac. Other than that I love the list.
Getting a teapot is on the top of my list and has been for years. My ex got my old one in the divorce.

11. Understand contentment
12. Buy chickens
13. Buy a Mac (I’ve had mine a year now and I’ve never had to use the Mac equivalent of ctrl alt del! I don’t even know what it is)
You should write a book JJ.

Cool list. I particularly agree with points 8 and 9 (sorry, I don’t drink tea).
All the best,

Thank you for the Memorial Day well wishes from across The Pond. what and when is the UK British equivalent? I was just wondering that this afternoon.
I am 100% with you on paint your toe nails (it gives you something good to look at and costs less than buying a Mac! lol!), the tea pot and drinking of good wine.
Tidying up a corner of your environment too!
Lovely advise and coaching, indeed!

I’m with you on most of them. In fact I just got a beautiful hand made Japanese tea pot. It is so beautiful I’m afraid to use it!

JJ,
Happy Memorial Day to you as well. Also, thank you for the list of quality of life improvement tips. I particularly like the advice to “get a mac” and to buy a bunch of toiletries. I’ve found that those two items give me a nice sense of inner satisfaction.
