cold but sunny!

i wrote down my book ideas.
things have a tendency to slip my mind.
some come back. some are lost if i don't write things down.
age, brain surgery a few concussions and
bad medication have taken their toll so it's
pads of paper and pencils in every room!!!

That's excellent, Sherry! I know that even without the challenges you listed, I have to write things down or poof! they are gone. I've lost plenty of blog post ideas into thin air because I didn't capture them quickly.

hi. yeah, it's hard for me to figure out what comes from what or is it just age. the short term memory problems where things do come back in a few days or weeks tho, that i swear is the reglan that i was on 10 years ago.

run like the wind from that damn drug unless there is no choice.

but, what is, is so i just ajust and adapt.

i've got a rough outline going and pulled a bunch of my poems from my files that fit the idea so it's a start.

I've never had a stellar memory. I think because if it didn't interest me, I preferred to wander into my own head. I never had trouble remembering anything that went on there; just details that didn't seem to add to anything at the time.

I don't write things down often enough and that's one reason that it's hard for me to be super-organized. I've found that having my camera with me all the time really helps with remembering things on trips and stuff. I photograph the little placards that precede works of art in museums, signs,menus, labels, you name it.

It sounds like you're really enthused about your book idea! This is so good to see, Sherry!

hi. i've been playing around with this book for about 4 or 5 years now. nothing quite seemed to come together. there was nothing that really tied the different pieces together. i needed something that was different and that suited how i am and how i've looked at people and life. i think i've hit upon a way.

i hope so. elephants don't take this long to give birth!!!!
