<p class="wp-block-paragraph">You know that ledge people talk about, as in &#8220;I need to be talked off the ledge?&#8221; Me and my personal ledge are getting rather cozy of late. Some of those frequent visits have involved the very transition you see before you — and while I&#8217;m very excited about all the changes, they still seem a bit surreal as I learn to navigate the new format and get the bugs out (that said, please pardon any dust around here!). Some have involved what I call The Juggle, e.g., balancing working at home and parenting. Now, I&#8217;ve always worked at home, but any edge I had feels as faded as &#8220;normal times,&#8221; whatever those are. But underlying all this daily mishegas (that&#8217;s Yiddish for &#8220;craziness&#8221;) has been a deep frustration on many levels that&#8217;s far bigger than just me. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So I was rather heartened earlier this week to get an email from<a href="https://sugarpaper.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="https://sugarpaper.com/"> Sugar Paper Los Angeles</a> with the headline &#8220;Keep Going.&#8221; &#8220;At a time when planning feels difficult,&#8221; it read, &#8220;it might be the most important thing to do. Keep going. Keep Planning.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So, while the new <a href="https://www.target.com/s?searchTerm=sugar+paper+essentials&;category=0%7CAll%7Cmatchallpartial%7Call+categories&;tref=typeahead%7Cterm%7C3%7Csugar+paper+essentials%7C%7C%7Cservice&;searchRawTerm=sugar+paper" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" title="https://www.target.com/s?searchTerm=sugar+paper+essentials&;category=0%7CAll%7Cmatchallpartial%7Call+categories&;tref=typeahead%7Cterm%7C3%7Csugar+paper+essentials%7C%7C%7Cservice&;searchRawTerm=sugar+paper">Sugar Paper Essentials collection from Target</a> might be &#8220;just&#8221; planners, calendars and office supplies, who knows what great things might arise from them? What I really love about this collection is that is has the posh Sugar styling at a Target price. These sweet little jars of paper clips and push pins (available in heart and traditional shapes, no less) retail at $5.99. </p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Even looking at the way 2021 lays out, accessorized with dots no less, feels pretty darn luxurious right now. There are so many great pieces to dress up your workspace.

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Glass Dry Erase Calendar you see above is at the high end of the collection&#8217;s pricing at $39.99, but it&#8217;s not only smart looking, it pretty much means you never need to buy another one.
