How's Your Summer?

Hi everyone! I am having a rather crazy (but good) summer. Kyle proposed to me on June 5th! So now we are planning a wedding. And it has been quite an adventure so far trying to integrate my voluntary simplicity values with wedding planning. There have been some helpful resources that I have found and I am going to put together a post with some details.
I am still working on my dissertation proposal (focused on individuals who voluntarily choose to reduce their consumption). I have decided to do both an online survey and in-person interviews, which I am in the process of developing. I am going to go to a mini-conference in Boston at the end of this month called "Contested Terrain of Consumption Studies" which I am very excited about.
I also went home to Michigan for 10 days at the beginning of July and had a wonderful time with my family and reconnecting with my roots.
The down side of all this activity and travel is that I have not had much time to participate in activities in NYC (I haven't gone to any ID Project meetings in a while).
That's the update so far with me. I can't wait to hear what everyone else has been up to!
