Day to day stuff....a memoir without order.

A special sig made for me by Mystic and gifted to me by Kat.


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." *Idea*

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.

I went to a birthday party this morning for the great grandson who turned three, Gunner. He was so cute running around with three fingers up and then counting gift packages. Kids are such little adults, aren't they? It was nice to see people I hadn't seen for a while, chat and catch up on their lives. I took the Interstate, thirteen minutes on to off. Yes, I count the minutes, so much traffic, but it is the quickest and probably the safest way to go.

Yesterday morning, after being informed by text by my neighbor because I slept through the entire thing, a huge limb on a gigantic water oak cracked and fell across the street, literally, decapitating my mailbox as it hit the macadam with a deafening thud (according to my neighbor). Public works had sawed and cleaned up everything by the time I heard about it and looked outside. But now, I have a mailbox to re-attach.
