 |  Day to day stuff....a memoir without order. |
 Imagination is described by Webster as...The act or power of forming a mental image of something not present to the senses in reality. Albert Einstein said "Logic will get you from A to B, but imagination will take you everywhere."  I never realized it until I read it somewhere but there are ways to boost one's imagination: Create a visual journal Draw whatever you see for 15 minutes a day. You don't need to be an artist. Think like an artist Cut out pictures from magazines & piece them together to create an original image. Listen to Bach Close your eyes while playing your favorite music. Or listen to the sounds of nature on a CD or in the great outdoors. Play word games Try thinking of as many words as you can that begin with MAR...or you pick. Daydream Let your mind wander, or focus on a single object & study its characteristics.     Everyone has a story....here's mine.....c   |
| My goal for today was to get rid of the ivy that's growing up the brick on the front of my house, no easy job. It involves a spackling knife to carefully chop away the little ivy feet that eat into the brick and sometimes the mortar in-between. Usually, I'm bad and let it get waist high before I get to it...like today. But I finally got it all pulled down and chopped off. Mission accomplished. It was a beautiful day for it sunny and around 80 degrees. While outside I noticed our Gainesville Regional Utilities were busy doing something to our underground utility box out front so it didn't really come as much of a shock to find my clocks blinking and my computer off when I came back in. Resetting and re-booting took around 30 minutes and interestingly my little on-line computer icon in my taskbar continued to be missing no matter how long I waited for it to appear. I loaded Chrome and the internet worked fine...but no little icon. I missed it. So of course I googled it and found I needed to click the taskbar, then properties, then custom settings to get it back...then re-boot again. Really, all for an electric blip. Makes a person think they need a backup battery. until next time...c |
