Is it just me?

When my mind is racing I tend to write a lot more, and also I will do like word puzzles or play mahzong. I recently have started coloring in color books. Is this childish or what.

Well atleast it gives me something to do with my 4 year old!!!

Just a random question?

Did tons of crosswords and puzzles.
Carry on.It's cool.
I'd watch the kids programmes cos they made more sense with the content and colours too.

If I could be constructive in my thinking I would love it but with how fast good ideas hit and then leave I can't get them written down, add the inability to finish the hundreds of projects I have started, nothing comes out of it. In my mind I have solved many of mankinds problems and come up with great multi-million dollar inventions and businesses that never materilize. Very discouraging.

I do colouring books too - its great fun! I like writing lists too - even silly stuff like who i'd invite to a pretend wedding or my all time fave films...

I color anywhere there are crayons! the only thing i heard from my teacher is not to color 'better' than the child because it makes them feel like they can't measure up... ok, she had to have been being a little dramatic, and sorry to my kids.. cuz i try to get all fancy,, i get really into it.. mixing colors,etc.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
