I use Google calendars to keep track of my life schedule. In it, there are millions of recurring events that I don’t actually attend. Not literal millions. And I used to attend or perform the tasks with some regularity once upon a time. These events have reminders attached to them: one day ahead and an hour before departure.
My phone is always alerting me about one thing or another. I find it more distracting than helpful. I opened up my laptop and deleted half a million events. I don’t know that this will affect my Mourners, but it’s definitely going to improve my own peace of mind. Let’s see how many of the events I will want to attend when I’m not constantly swiping away alerts and procrastinating calling my favourite aunts.
What death cleaning task will you do for yourself today?
