Another Week, Another Need to Excuse Myself



Hi friends, I had BIG PLANS for blogging this week, but I am still without Internet at home, still dealing with doctors and other appointments, and also dealing with some bigger fish. So I am going to beg off blogging AGAIN for the next week.

Here's some activities you might like to do:

  • whenever you are waiting somewhere, take out a notebook and draw the area you are waiting
  • buy a box of pencils and sharpen them all. Place them in a cup on your desk. The smell will drive you wild with ideas.
  • Take a picture of your co-worker jumping up in the air OR have your co-worker take a picture of YOU jumping in the air.
  • Watch the sunrise--this time of year has the BEST sunrises.
  • Get a tattoo.
  • Color your hair.
  • Plan something that delights you.
  • Rollerskate.
  • Create a work of art in collaboration with an unlikely partner: weather, your pet, or your neighbors.
  • Read a poem by Thomas Lux. He rules. Here's one.
  • Do one of the following: cartwheel, summersalt, or handstand.
  • Play blind--walk through a neighborhood with your eyes closed and a friend guiding you for at least 15-20 minutes. Switch off.

That is all. See you soon.
