Challenge: Harvest

You don't have to harvest the ideas as they come in. Simply make note of them, harvest them later

Challenge: Detour

Sometimes, the best plans don't work out. Occasionally you'll need to adapt and accept a detour.

Challenge: One Way

This receptacle allows items to go in with ease but getting them out requires a special tool. Inspiration shouldn't work like that. It's a 2 way street. Find a way to send out inspiration.

Challenge: Spiral

You know the phrase "spiraling out of control?" I always thought that was a misnomer, spirals seem to be tightly controlled.

Challenge: FIRE!

 What get's you worked up? What if it just went away?

Challenge: Keep it Clean

Do you "Keep it clean?" For once don't.

I'm doing some darker stuff for the month of October, in honor of Halloween.

Happy Halloween!

Field Experiment #20

Leslie's Results
This week was much easier in terms of finding the time to work. I worked on lunch breaks and after work. Instead of feeling stressed or pressured I leaned toward feeling enjoyment in the simple act of centering myself with drawing.

Jane's Results
I've not been to reliable putting up my results lately. I think that has a little to do with the fact that I have issues with endings, and I have completed the end of my Field notes book.

Endings put a lot of pressure on me. I feel like they have to be special or bigger than usual. Maybe that's because I generally have issues with finishing things and because doing so is so rare I feel like it needs to be special. It helped me to think of ending this experiment with the beginning of a new one. 

It also helped me to write about how I felt to create a little journal that documents the summer of 2012 for me. The summer that my grandson, Ryan was born. The summer I got a new, very challenging, but rewarding job. The summer I finally got a dishwasher, along with a whole new kitchen. (the finishing touches we just did this weekend) 

Words about how I feel about ending this journal written over and over in both directions.
