 |  Day to day stuff....a memoir without order. |
 Imagination is described by Webster as...The act or power of forming a mental image of something not present to the senses in reality. Albert Einstein said "Logic will get you from A to B, but imagination will take you everywhere."  I never realized it until I read it somewhere but there are ways to boost one's imagination: Create a visual journal Draw whatever you see for 15 minutes a day. You don't need to be an artist. Think like an artist Cut out pictures from magazines & piece them together to create an original image. Listen to Bach Close your eyes while playing your favorite music. Or listen to the sounds of nature on a CD or in the great outdoors. Play word games Try thinking of as many words as you can that begin with MAR...or you pick. Daydream Let your mind wander, or focus on a single object & study its characteristics.     Everyone has a story....here's mine.....c ** Image ID #1701066 Unavailable **  |
| I have been attempting to hang a curtain rod over my French door to my porch. The doors are mostly glass. and curtains, even the light ones I bought, would help with cold and heat...and privacy. An old round wooden curtain rod (2 actually, 48 inches each) has been moved with me several times. They are decorative with end finials and pretty wooden hanger supports. I needed to "join" the 2 rods so off I went to the hardware store in search of a double ended screw, since both rod ends were already drilled for the finials. And, lo and behold, I found one for 65 cents! It worked perfectly and the curtain rod now extended 96 inches. But then, another problem, the worrisome middle sag. I installed the end supports 84 inches off the floor very securely with drywall anchors and set the rod in place. The mid joining point lined up with the top of the door frame making it seemingly impossible to use another of the wooden hangers for support. The story continues. I have "patterned" the door frame onto the hanger where the hanger needs to go and am waiting for Amazon to deliver a wood hacksaw to "cut out" the wood to make it fit flush. Wish me luck. |
