Well after the baby boy that is positively precious arrived, I packed my bag and zoomed off to Alaska to visit family and ski. I had intended to go before boy was born but he decided to be early and keep everyone on their toes!
So here I am in the frigid North, the Last Frontier, the land that Robert Service wrote many a ballad about.
Yes that is correct. -1.5 degrees.
On the road sometime I feel like my brain gets behind. I've so many ideas or thoughts or a marketing strategy for my Dad's ranch or a pattern idea for a clutch out of old wool or a new herb garden skematic...how do I remember the gems to be used later when I'm going, going, GONE?!
PS TIP
Keep a journal. Not a "dear diary" journal or even one with deep content regarding life and eternity. A scratch book. One that can be beat up, pages torn out, things stapled in, one that can go everywhere and handle everything.
This is mine.
Picked this Eco-recycled-earth friendly book up at a book shop in Prescott, Arizona.
I took notes while watching "Band of Brothers" to use to teach leadership.
Ah and here is the map I drew for my Sister-in-law's baby shower. I knew the venue and planned the room and decor from 1,000 miles away by scratching it out on my journal.
This is guy goes with me everywhere so I have the opportunity to use my ideas or share them at later times because we all know how hard it is to remember that keen idea on the spot when you need it.
Write. It. Down!
Enjoy your warmth wherever you are and Happy Monday!
