I imagine that things are easier to
stir or mix by moving a spoon or implement counter-clockwise rather than
clockwise. I don’t know if it is habit,
tradition or fact of right-handed majority that causes us to stir clockwise,
but I believe imagine it is not the most efficient method!
My imagination goes crazy when I knit
with one color. Do I imagine it or do
projects with two or more color changes move faster than a one color
project. I have been faithfully knitting
the Weekend Pullover (the pattern says Gauzy Sweater) for several weeks and
have just reached the place where I put the sleeve stitches on holders and
start knitting the body. I am tempted to
insert a stripe or two on the body to make the whole thing move faster. That would do it, right? Maybe not.
Is it my imagination that Cardinals
are a lot like humans? Mr. and Mrs.
Cardinal come to our feeders every day and they bicker and pick at each
other. I’m told they mate for life but I
have to wonder if there is a lot of divorce in the Cardinal community. They spat and squabble and pick, pick, pick
at each other. Then he brings her a nut
and she trades him for a bit of thistle and they rub their beaks together and fly
away happy. Yep, just like people.
My imagination has me convinced that
really spicy Tortilla Soup will open my sinuses and help my allergies. Never mind that I love hot, spicy food, I eat
it for medicinal purposes—with cornbread.
That’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it.
The pups are all wet because I took
advantage of a warm day to give them a bath.
They are not happy. No imagining that.
Life is good!
