tiny newsletter edition #2: what, it's a new year or something?!
hi friends — happy new year!!
i’m starting it off in my childhood bedroom, as i’ve caught a (thankfully, very mild!) case of covid. but no complaints! to be honest, i can’t imagine a more cozy and loving place to be right now.
to pass the days this week, i've been…
📺 watching emily in paris season 2 on netflix. i know there’s plenty of internet slander about this show, but i truly could not care less. to me, this absolute cotton candy crazy universe is exactly the type of content i need right now. 5 stars.
🧘🏻♀️ doing yoga with adriene youtube videos. her 30 day annual new years’ video series is officially live! friend of the newsletter, miss madeline warshaw, convinced me to stick to it last year and it was one of the best things i’d ever done for my creaky joints and busy mind. i’m glad to be able to do it again.
🗓️ filling in all the jewish holidays on a new planner. last year, i didn’t really see the point in planners, and all my days melded together into one big confusing stew. no more! in college, i used this elephant of an option, but this year i went for a lightweight and simple one. (muji only ships products within japan, so i’ve linked to the ebay black market listing)
~bonus section~
💰 money moment 💰 do you mind if i talk about money sometimes in this newsletter? i wanted to share a new annual practice i’m doing – calculating my net worth in a google sheet, to track year over year.
there are tons of apps that will do this for you (i’ve heard great things about personal capital, if you’re looking!), but i was in the mood for a manual check-in.
if you’re interested, it’s easy. add up your assets (i.e. cash, investments, paid-off-million-dollar-gemstone-necklaces, etc) and subtract your liabilities (debt in any form: credit card, student, medical, other). the number at the end is nothing to feel any which way about, it’s just something to watch.
💌 and that’s the tiny letter! tysm for reading, xo aud
