They have spent many years carefully curating all the items in their possession, discarding those entries which aren\u2019t fit to purpose or aren\u2019t sufficiently aesthetic or nostalgic. The only things remaining in their house are those things which, to reference Marie Kondo, \u201cspark joy\u201d.</p>\n\n<p><strong>I was never so fortunate.</strong></p>\n\n<h3>The Circle of Life</h3>\n\n<p>Like I suspect most young adults in their teens and early 20s, when I moved into my own place, I really didn\u2019t have much stuff at all and most of the stuff I did have was the random assortment of items I\u2019d inherited from my parents or taken with me from my bedroom (which largely originated with my parents!). And when I <em>did</em> buy new things, much of the time it was because (a) it was cheap, and (b) I needed it. Utility above all else.</p>\n\n<p>Then in my late 20s, I got married. Suddenly I had a <em>ton</em> of things in <em>our</em> house, many of which I had absolutely no say over because obviously they were the property of my wife. Moving forward, our stuff was an amalgam of things I wanted, things she wanted, and things neither of us wanted but we hadn\u2019t bothered to remove or replace. Add kids into the mix, and the lines are blurred even further (and the clutter accumulates exponentially!).</p>\n\n<p><strong>Then, in my late 30s, I got divorced.</strong> And in somewhat of a similar fashion to my previous decade, I ended up with a hodgepodge of items some of which were mine, some of which were my ex-wife\u2019s that she wasn\u2019t partial to\u2014and of course, some of which were my kids.</p>\n\n<p>Fast forward to the beginning of this year <a href=\"https://jaredwhite.com/podcast/123\">when I made the decision</a> to transition to the <a href=\"https://jaredwhite.com/tag/nomadlifestyle/\">#NomadLifestyle</a> for a season. Since I knew I would be renting a not-terribly-large storage unit and anything not coming along with me for the ride would <em>have</em> to fit into that unit, I began the serious process of downsizing. And in that process, and even now as I still ponder this new leg of my life\u2019s journey, I\u2019ve realized something rather horrifying:</p>\n\n<p><strong>There was hardly anything in my possession I truly loved.</strong></p>\n\n<h3>What is Valuable</h3>\n\n<p>In the past, I might have brushed off this thought entirely. After all, perhaps that\u2019s a good thing! I should \u201cvalue experiences\u201d or people over material things. Or perhaps it was simply a sign of me being thrifty: why spend a bunch of money on a fancy-pants table napkin when a sponge works just fine?</p>\n\n<p>But <em>this is the year</em> when I\u2019ve been carefully and methodically revisiting all of my life\u2019s choices and giving heed to anything about my habits, routines, even personality I feel no longer serves my best interests now and in the future. And a singular thought has begun to dawn for me:</p>\n\n<p><strong>What if every one of my possessions were actually extremely valuable?</strong></p>\n\n<p>Now this begs the question: what is valuable? I don\u2019t merely take this to mean expensive. In some cases, yes, that may very well be the case. But when I say valuable, I mean <em>this item is valuable to me</em>. It is <em>meaningful</em>. It is <em>appreciated</em>. It <em>has a story</em>. It has <em>presence</em>. In other word, it\u2019s <em>got a vibe</em>.</p>\n\n<p>And to a certain degree, it is <em>exclusive</em>. Put simply: <strong>I would rather own one really, really, really, really great fork than own a dozen crappy forks.</strong> Extrapolate that to nearly everything else. Instead of a bunch of shirts I don\u2019t particularly care for\u2014have just a handful of awesome shirts I <em>love</em> to wear, that are meaningful to me in some real way. Instead (once I am permanently housed again) of a bunch of paintings and photos hanging on walls most of which I don\u2019t particularly fancy at this point, I have one or two art pieces which are <em>striking</em> and inspiring. Instead of a bunch of cheap-ass chairs none of which are particularly attractive or comfortable, maybe I only own one chair which is the best damn chair ever.</p>\n\n<p><strong>I think you get the point.</strong></p>\n\n<p>Rather than pride myself on my lack of care in the material world I surround myself with, like somehow I\u2019m more spiritual or more practical that way, I have come to realize I want the exact opposite. <strong>I want to stop being cheap.</strong> I want to purchase things even that are expensive\u2014not because of the status of it, but because <em>it\u2019s well-made</em>, perhaps even handmade, sourced with high-quality materials and crafted with real artistry.</p>\n\n<p>In lieu of being rich, however, this new approach definitely requires a degree of sacrifice. <strong>I\u2019m OK with that.</strong> I would rather live in a small dwelling that\u2019s mostly empty\u2014but what <em>is</em> in it is fabulous\u2014than live in a large house filled with disposable nonsense and cheap garbage. I found it quite depressing, in fact, as I was putting the stuff I did end up keeping into my storage unit, that the vast majority of items I was storing had virtually no value. Nobody else would care to spend any real money acquiring these items. You could poof most of those items out of existence, then replace them with similar items from the usual national chains and discount stores, and nobody really could tell the difference.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Honestly, I was aghast.</strong> How could I, as an \u201cartist\u201d, as a creative person, as someone who ostensibly cares deeply about aesthetics and fit and form and finish, stand to surround myself with total crap?</p>\n\n<p>It started to make me wonder if this had been a real drag on my mental health for some time and I hadn\u2019t even realized it until now. The only explanation I could come up with (other than just not wanting to or not being able to spend a lot of money) is that I\u2019ve spent so much of my life caring deeply about the <em>digital world</em>, and not so much the <em>physical world</em>. The boundaries of my artistic sensibilities had been set mainly to the confines of my screens, and thus to a fair degree everything beyond suffered.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Ultimately, I had become my own worst enemy.</strong> By continuing to place myself\u2014to be perfectly honest\u2014in a slobby mess of an abode, I was slowly crushing my own spirit.</p>\n\n<h3>A Total Reset of My Physical World</h3>\n\n<p>There\u2019s a host of reasons I\u2019m now rocking the nomadic lifestyle, living as a true minimalist, but one of the reasons it seems I\u2019ve discovered in hindsight and wasn\u2019t necessarily part of my original plan.

I’m pissed off. “tHe lAw AnD OrDeR pArtY” said they’re ignoring the Supreme Court’s order to return Abrego Garcia to the US. They kidnapped him from his wife and kid and sold him off to a torture prison in El Salvador. They can do this to anyone and it’s your word against theirs. No due process.

The road is a lover
You never recover
Not now or any time soon
My head starts to spin
When I think where I’ve been
Playin’ twin to an old fiddle tune, oh
As the wind chases after the moon

A great song on one of my favorite bluegrass albums, So Long So Wrong. #NomadLifestyle

(Speaking of Alison Krauss & Union Station, there’s a brand new long-awaited album out and boy oh boy am I buying it!!)

My Garmin watch did not sync activities with the Garmin Connect iOS app upon returning home from a week of travels. It did sync my steps from the day I landed, my sleep that night, and steps the following day. It just failed to pick up my running, hiking, and other activities logged when I was abroad.

After a little searching and filtering out obvious tips (make sure Bluetooth is on and paired), I found the key steps and fixed it.

How to get the Garmin Connect iOS app to sync Garmin watch activities that are seemingly being ignored:

1. unpair watch from phone (iOS Settings > Bluetooth > (i) next to watchname > "Forget This Device")
2. hard restart watch (e.g. hold down backlight button on a fenix 7S Pro to turn it off)
3. restart Garmin Connect app (force quit and re-open)
4. re-pair watch to phone
5. wait a while for all the activities to sync

It seemed to sync hikes and walks first, then runs, roughly in reverse chronological order.

The syncing spinner indicator in Garmin Connect took a while and prematurely completed the progress circle ○, and kept “spinning” the arrows 🔁 inside the circle for many minutes.

Note: having some idea how software is written and handles queues etc., I highly recommend fixing any syncing problems like this before recording another activity in your watch. There is a chance that the software bug(s) that caused the syncing problem in the first place may inadvertently only pick up the latest activity and make it even harder to recover or sync the previously unsynced activities.

I had no luck with web searching, e.g. for
* why is Garmin ios app not syncing recent activities from my Garmin watch
and similar queries.

All “AI Overview” results were useless.

Only after going to https://support.garmin.com/ and entering my watch model name and number did I somehow find this article:
* Garmin Connect App: Device Is Paired but Not Connecting to App: https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?faq=9BcXLSQ4A22gasLarkUvH6

Which while not the exact problem I was having (my watch did connect, and sync two days of steps and one night of sleep), it felt close enough to be worth reading.

Steps 3 and 4 in the article gave the key steps to try (though I split step 4 into two parts, and in the middle only restarted my watch, there was no reason to restart my phone)

That article linked to another article on "How Do I Restart My Garmin Device?" which I also found useful: https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?faq=A6gOR1U2zDAFqmJVdap6k6

Hopefully by blogging this, the next person that has a similar problem (my guess is the Garmin Connect Android app works similarly) can more quickly find this solution and key steps by searching the open web.
