Hi! I really loved the imagery of your brain in the morning and after 15 minutes of calm! Somehow I. find your writing / pictures strike a cord with me! I am struggling to find a balance between what needs to get done (usually, yesterday!) and what is reasonable to get done within the constraints of 24 hours! I will embark on the "prep for tomorrow" journey with you this month in the hopes that I,too, will find calming weather!
Have you ever tried writing with a group called Shut Up & Write. I have a writing session that I "go to" every morning via Zoom. It starts at 6:45 am PT.
No, but I love this! I want to join! I'll just have to see if Kenn can be on animal duty so I can try it (they are fanatical about their breakfast/potty/play time being punctual).
Well, if you do get a chance. The group is very welcoming to people and their furry babies. And as far as schedule you can pop in after it starts and leave before it end if needed. And sometimes people come back to do the check out and say they had to walk the dog. All good.
Fun post! Along these lines, Sarai, I heard that Hemingway used to leave sentences half-finished before going to bed in order to help incite his creative muscles to action the next day. Pretty cool stuff. I might have to try that. 😆

The way you structure these posts + the images you place throughout them enable them to be a sort of brain massage. :-)
What a nice compliment!
Wonderful! This is something I needed to read and you voiced it perfectly!
Oh, I'm glad you feel that way!

I like that idea!
Yeah, I often follow that advice (such as when writing code). It has helped.
