From Leslie in October (odd-day topic - adjusting)




Leslie has so much fun - this was what she did for the October exchange. That's an adorable little devil-cat  on the back. The loopty-loo-boos are so much fun. You could do loopty-hearts for Valentine's Day. Dots. Scribbles. That's plenty to work with.

The add-on for the day is from a folder that I forgot about. It's stuff I was going to go back and look at - before I bonked my head. Now, I do not have the attention span to delve into interesting websites. Even if I did have time to look at it and recommended it - it's probably not for everyone. So, if you have spare  time to fill, take a look. If not, dive into something else that looks interesting. Or, drag yourself kicking and screaming over to that chore you are avoiding - and just get it out of the way. 

<pause>

Right before I inserted the link to The Isolation Journals - I thought I would click on just one of their free prompts. I chose The Anti-bucket List. It's not for everyone - but, it was good for me. Not that I have terminal illness - but I have had to adjust to letting go of a number of things that I was not planning on letting go of so soon. Technically, we are all terminal, but most of us have not had a predictable timeline dropped on us.


Link to the main website of The Isolation Journals. with all kinds of blurbs to read.
