Well, Drat!

I seem to have reached a crisis point. I've been writing entries in my head for the past year or so, and they aren't getting onto the computer. Part of the problem is that I need to make a date to write. It doesn't need to be daily, but I need to set a time when I can go to the computer and put down my thoughts. I also need to keep a note pad handy to write down the ideas or sentences which come to me when I'm not at the computer.

AND, I need to take some memory building classes. I was just standing at the kitchen sink, rinsing knives, and in just two minutes, had an entry fleshed out. By the time I got to my computer....no more than five minutes later.....I couldn't remember the subject of the entry. This is really ticking me off.

Do you suppose more walking would improve my memory? Please tell me I'm just going through a phase, and that things will improve!

Funny that you would bring this up. I really miss blogging. I was trying to think about why I had so much trouble getting to it. I have a dozen excuses such as: the kids are always on the computer, I have too much grading/work/stuff to do, I'm on the go . . . . But I think what it amounts to is the same thing that is required for anything that matters - schedule the time as if it is a very important appointment.

If I used this advice I'd be a size 8, still able to bound out of bed in the morning and up the three flights of stairs to my office at work. My daughter's senior album would be finished . . . .
