Write Down Tiny Details

 In the "Times Insider" feature, Melissa Kirsch (who writes the NYT's At Home Newsletter) is featured.  She put together a list of her own "strategies for living well during an uncertain time."  Read them all here.

Here's the one that I liked the best:

Write down tiny details. I keep a log book, which is an idea that I got from the artist Austin Kleon. Every day, or as often as I can, I try to write down the most mundane details of the day. Today, I might write something about the fact that I reheated farro for lunch or that I spoke to somebody at The Times about a computer problem. Those tiny details that make up a day are the things we’ll forget when we look back on this time. I hope that when I read them over a decade from now, the complexion of the days will come to life: what it was really like, separate from the larger narrative of “a year in quarantine.”
