It's bothered me for years and years, the difficulty I had staying on task. Ever since kindergarten, when I got in trouble for not doing a homework assignment. Middle school, high school, college. All those years hating school because I had to stay on task and just plain wouldn't. Hating myself because I spent so much time at work playing.
(There were big exceptions. Music, obviously. Sports. Any writing assignment on a subject I got to choose myself. But still I got out of high school with a 2.71 GPA.)
But you know? I get the job done. And if I just let myself hop around and quit worrying about it, I get more done. More stuff, and arguably more job.
So here are some pictures taken in Monday's lousy light. (Right, this is a Thursday Thing, not a Monday Thing, but there ain't no such thing, and today's Thursday, so close enough.)

Love many of these. The colors!
I still struggle with all the different ways that I don't seem to fit the way I'm supposed to make a living/life, and can't make a living/life that fits me. But I stress less over it and go with the flow of who I am and how I do things as much as possible within my limits. It seems like you've been learning how to do the same. You know it amazes me that with all we now know about the human psyche and what motivates people (basically, getting to follow our interests and letting them take us where they will), that we still follow old formulas for living that obviously make the majority of us rather dissatisfied in many areas of our lives.
I really like all of these. But the first one in the second row and the second one in the 8th row are my favorites.
