so many ideas.
so many projects.
so much happiness to spread.
How do I keep track of it all?
How do I get all my words from my busy mind to this blog?
Part of the problem is that I do my best thinking at work. Why is that? I'm supposed to be focused on work and I actually have been pretty busy but my mind still likes to wonder off into random distant worlds.
For example...
I wonder what everyone else is blogging about?
I bet I could hand make this or that
oh hey, what kind of chickens am I going to get this spring?
(yes, I do say "oh hey" to myself in my mind)
hmm what plants should I plant in my front yard on that bare slope?
Oh I wonder if my transplanted rootings took to their new home yet?
oh yea, i saw curtains the other day that I liked I wonder if I can find similar material and make them?
(and yes, I do say "oh yea" to myself in my mind)
I wonder if my Camilla is still blooming? I need to remember to look and cut the flowers if it is.
(and again, yes, I do say "I wonder" to myself)
whats for dinner?
honeymoon?
wedding invitiations?
new couch?
yadda... yadda... yadda...
I could go on and on.I try to be simple...I really do...I try to think simple thoughts and focus on the task at hand but have you ever tried to completely focus on 1 thing for more than 10 minutes?...whew...it's tough. (and don't tell me I have adult a.d.d. - I'm convinced that focus is a rare talent...a god given gift.)
Not to mention, for some reason I write much better in my mind while I'm at work and when I get home it's like I have a mild case of writers block. I actually wrote this entire blog while taking a break at work. Lengthy isn't it?
So my solution....a good ol' notebook to keep with me at all times.
{I received this one from my dear friend Liz - Thanks again Liz!} |
So hears to good thoughts that will never be forgotten because they'll be in my notebook! (I wonder how long it'll take me to fill it up? - any guesses?)
