This is just what I needed this morning to stop me from spinning out of control. Thank you.

I always appreciate and enjoy the size of these posts, Lesley! Easy to digest, delicious and satisfying! The "idea catcher" is one I am familiar with and I love that term!

Also, frequently, when I refer back to the "idea" it's a brand new surprise to me all over again as in Damn that *is* good, lol.

Thanks for mentioning the size. It's something I've wondered about - too much or too little? Sometimes I want to go on forever, lol. Revisiting ideas is always fun, isn't it?

What a wonderful problem to have. I usually find that I cook this on one general area at a time. Right now my landscape painting is actually gardening. My lawn is the canvas and I’m always messing with my Japanese maples and various other plantings.

Calm and focused is something I try for, but it never seems to happen. So many ways to create.
