my computer time is helping me prepare for projects i want to do while i am recovering. i have a list of goals for the time i have off. id love to write them down, prioritize them and do some brain storming, but, alas, i can't write anything down! i had no idea how much i used my hands. specifically, my right hand! hopefully, until i am more agile, i can LEARN! i have several online classes and youtube tutorials that i need to spend time on. i will continue to research and do what i can to improve my online presence and my personal history recording. i am still struggling towards my goals . what do i want in my future? what goals do need to achieve the future i want? what steps do i need to take to achieve those goals?
sorry, meds kicked in .... mind wondered ... rambling ensued. LOL my point was, in the 5 days I've done very little other than surf the web, I've discovered a few things id like to change.
1. i need to take more pictures of my life.
So, my first , honest picture of my life.
I need to send more cards. I make them. I save them.
I organize them (see photo for proof) This was my first project in my summer off!
Now - I need to start mailing them
this i discovered while reading the WEEK IN THE LIFE blogs by Ali Edwards.
I have pictures from this year and last year that i would like to get them in albums with journaling before i go back to work.
Anyway, Ali takes a ton of pictures, and actually scraps 10-12 a day. I only took 4-5 a day, and not all of them are scrap worthy! I would like to be more aware of moments, aware of things and people worthy of recording. Things i see now ... i want to REALLY SEE.
2. I can and probably should blog more about the process.
This is the first step in the PROJECT LIFE 2017 album
I am determined to finish this year!
I am grouping the photos from that week, I am then going to narrow down the ones I plan on using, I'll put them in the page protectors, then add papers and embellishments.
You will be seeing more photos of this album soon.
I tend to blog about big things. When they are done or if they are important i record. That probably isn't necessary. I can share just the pictures with notes from my days. Or I can scrap the same. general photos, notes from the day. Everything isn't a huge thing to everyone else, but i know I don't record some thoughts that I would like to remember.
3. The blog is a great place to record some history and some thoughts.

2cut's HEART
You have probably seen this lovely picture of my arm. I am 13 days out from surgery and already frustrated and wishing recovery was over.
I think if I could be better about posting things here .... I might have a better timeline for some of the thousands of open thoughts and projects rambling around my head.
I don't utilize my computer to NEAR the potential it offers. It is a great resource. There is so much potential and i have not even explored the possibilities. I am hoping to explore resources that will work with my cra-cra thinking. Maybe I can accomplish more. Or, maybe I can just bore you all to death with my rambling!
Either way, you are going to be getting a taste of my crazy thinking. My sorting my thoughts. And my trying to get control of my space. Welcome to this crazy ride!
So Welcome to my World
