Greetings Thinkers,

Yesterday I got myself in quite a trailer pickle. I did not panic and I later felt pretty proud of myself for that and for getting myself out, even if it was via a 54+ point turn.

a collection of things I wrote down yesterday:

How DOES a magic eraser work?

Thoughts about being a Sentimental Sally and a sap. Why am I like that? What makes others not like that? And now a reminder of something about sentimentality from a classic book I read a few years ago, that I can not place right now.

Seeing the first lightning bugs of a season is kin to hearing the first peepers. SOUNDS OF SUMMER.
Also reminded me of something I overheard recently: someone said "it smells like lightning bug" and I thought - 1 ) I don't know that smell, 2) how do YOU know that smell, 3) are we talking about smooshed lightning bug? in which case that returns us to number 1 and how I don't know that smell.

On seeing a road sign that said "please slow down" I was reminded why these kinds of signs annoy me. It ASSUMES that you are going too fast, that everyone is already going too fast. What about the folks who know the road, and don't do that. like the ones whose yard it's in that are also driving past that sign. do they need to slow (further) down too?
It should say "please drive slow" or something like that. Less assumptive.

Feeling indecisive before 9 on a Wednesday is probably gonna be a certain kind of day...

word of the day

engender : to be the source or cause of something, to cause, give rise to, bring about, produce, or create

use it: I like the idea of being an ENGENDER. I want to be the source of thinking, of considering your self and your life. What do you want to engender? Is WHAT you're engendering done consciously and on purpose? What about things you are engendering that are not on purpose, what are those? Are you aware ?

quote(s) to consider

“Attention engenders growth.”

LIKE : where focus goes, energy flows

and remember this goes for "good" and for "bad"

new scene I'm putting together at my space: nautical, painting I did some years ago: Sine on Girl

Energy to you.

Things you could know about me:

order: newest adds at the top, older things at the bottom

defines WEIGHT as: the quality of the quantity of matter you are carrying

I like to antagonize common sayings and typical perspectives

Everything is a choice and authenticity is supreme.

Reflecting on my life whether it's looking back at the last month or doing a "this time last year" thing, shorter or longer time frames, doing this at all is a reflection of who I am. That I care to consider who I am, who I have been, what I have done, so that I may use all of that to inform what I do and who I am in the present and the future. That I reflect is a reflection of who I am.

running with turtles

I know, I'm a horror to say anything to some times..

when all my identities are umbrellas

I love a good double negative!

Plan in quotes because I'm so averse to "plans" and "goals".

I chunk out my days, to the minute, in Gcal.

I love to putter so if it becomes "I puttered my life away" so be it.

I'm not a cherry picker, of anything. I like to use things that exist rather than start from new or scratch.

I am an ostrich about politics, news, current events, pop culture and media.

I dislike clichés and most positive quotes, under thought things meant well, commonly said quotes and phrases.

Don't tell me what to do, don't ask me "how how are you?" or say "I'm sorry for your loss" unless you want to annoy me or you really, really mean it. And know it can be hard to tell which it is, and I'm wrong not infrequently.

30 Day Challenges are my thing. I have a tendency to make things every day things. This is where 30 Day Challenges come from!

Like yourself. Know yourself. Express that self.
Think about things. Don't feel like you have to dance in the rain to have a good life.
Don't have a plan. Stand for what matters. Read when you want to. Don't smile when people tell you to.
Don't have goal. Tend plants. Leave marks. Do what you say. Change YOUR world. And your mind!
Be a friend and a daughter and a partner and a sister and a dog mom.
In a world full of "accept who you are" messages, don't forget to be a "work on that" kind of person.
Don't put kindness above truth. Try new things. Be honest. Live by ideals. Have some whimsy.
What you do for money matters; strive to like what you do for money. (job)
If you have a hobby you need a life.
Use what attracts you and let what you care about matter!

Peepers are my favorite sound.

Triangles are my favorite shape.

54 is my number.

I never need to talk but thank you for offering to listen.

If you say I'm overthinking it, I'll probably say you are underthinkig it.

why I do what I do: I want to "make you" THINK. I don't mind if your experience and perception of me "makes you" be more mindful, use your brain more, "think too much" or consider something more carefully, or differently, or moves you to be (more) thoughtful or intentional or authentic.

I am a hugger and I mean my hugs.

I don't like to have scheduled things. The days where I have something scheduled are a certain category of feeling. I'm not very fond of pre sign ups, committing to things in advance externally. My favorite days are the ones I call "blank slate days". Nothing scheduled, nothing formally EXTERNALLY committed (I am full of internal commitment and ideas all the time, so no day is truly uncommitted).

use the moons

I love rules and I am a ruler follower.

I like a cup to fill.

So which is it Kym. Do you like wide open clean slate no commitment things?
Or you "need" want and thrive in containers, defined spaces, rules and limits?

Geez what a walking contradiction. A biggest when to which Witch!?

SOC life - what you allow in, turns into what you spend your time on. Can you see it?

Tomb raider hot is my favorite kind of girl hot, my favorite hot to be.
