    This article was originally published in The Simplifier #58. Article: The Recipe for a Balanced Life? By Shawn Tuttle Balance.

    The final Clean Desk Challenge!

    Bad news and good news on this final evening of the Clean Desk Challenge. Now that I have my bluetooth sync-ing capability, the photos aren’t transferring to the laptop.
