whimsical wednesday

it's memory books and/or notable notebooks this whimsical wednesday!  a memory book is any notebook one uses to inscribe random memories about anything.  a notable notebook is any notebook one uses to jot down ideas, thoughts, quotes, interesting bits of this and that.

both are enjoyable activities for me.  the notable notebook gets more attention than the memory book because i'm always reading something somewhere i want to keep. i have found, with the memory book, if something comes to mind i should stop what i'm doing and write the memory.  if i don't, i often lose what it was i wanted to remember.  the memory returns, but it's not the same as when i was first inspired. because it takes longer to write in the memory book it's much easier to put off than the notable notebook.  that factor is the main reason to set aside one whimsical wednesday a month to pay particular attention to the memory book.

my first activity of this day was to open my memory book and write about the enchantment of a hard frost glistening in sunlight.  this fall scene has enthralled since i was a child.  it never fails to impress no matter how old i grow.  what a pleasant way to begin the day and to enjoy whimsical wednesday.
