I Love Seamlessness!!
It is amazing what we can do today with the advances in technology!! The “Living Out Loud Intentionally” blogradio interview I did the last Wednesday in 2009 is a perfect example of that. I was sitting in a Suburban in a shopping mall parking lot in Buford, Georgia using my cell phone (I was suppose to be on a LAN line so don’t tell the shows producers.) Meanwhile, Dr. Carolyn was in Houston, TX uploading this live interview to the world wide web. Click here to hear the interview.
The most amazing part of the whole thing is the seamlessness of it all. It was as if Dr. Carolyn and I were sitting across from one another; both to us and the listeners. Yet, we were hundreds of miles apart!! Because of the seamlessness of syncing my iPhone calendars, contacts and tasks I switched to a Mac platform. Now I can schedule an appointment or save a phone number and never worry about remembering to plug in my phone to my computer. It happens automatically! Oh, for all of my life to be as seamless!
What are some of the things you do to make your life more seamless?



SEE IT – WIPE IT!
I was asked one time how I manage to keep such a clean and organized home. My answer was, “When I see it, I wipe it”. When I see things in my home that need a bit of attention, I get at it right away. In this way, the sometimes overwhelming task of keeping a clean home never seems to get out of hand. On my scheduled cleaning days, I certainly go deeper to where the dirt is, but this is my ‘seamless’ way to keep up my home daily.
Love your site! I’m gonna recommend it to ALL my friends! You are such a blessing to those who need to live intentionally!
Sara, you are a sweetheart!! Thanks for the seamlessness tip. That is so try and you did that with three boys (four if you count, Jim) running around. Pray your friends enjoy my site!! What an honor.
Your mama sent me overhere
I’ll read a some of your blogs… I so wanted to say the first thing that popped into my mind about a seamless life but your site is G rated…
I try to get up in the morning, shower, get dressed and get myself ready for the day before coming downstairs to work and see to mother. If not, I find that half the morning has gone by before I realize it. It takes a little discipline but it is very helpful in getting the day moving seamlessly. I have enough “gotta do it nows” to pop up. I am fairly technology oriented by not quite to your level. I will start a blog one of these days. I blog on a site called multiply — that’s mostly where I say what I have to say!
Back to reading your blog now….

Sandy, I hear what you are saying about getting yourself ready first and then heading into the day. When I worked from my home, I need to get dressed and ready or I never settle in for the day. When I was in my twenties and worked even more from my home, I almost had to walk out my door and walk back as if going to my “office.” Yes, it does take discipline but recently I realized that everyone that I desire to be like is disciplined. I wish there was an easier way but despite the Staples (?) commercials, there are no easy buttons.
