LACK OF INSPIRATION !

Jenny Matlock
more participants at Jenny Matlock's Alphabet Thursday
  
The only definition of "Inspiration" I found in a dictionary : "stimulation or arousal of the mind, feelings, etc, to special or unusual activity or creativity"

Sometimes before I write a post for Alphabet Thursday, I have a lack of inspiration. Of course it depends on the letter, for  XYZ  it is not so easy  to be inspired. Usually I look around me, I listen to people I watch them, and then suddenly comes the inspiration ! That's the same for my paintings, but it is easier, I just have to look at some pictures and then at least the penny dropped !

Sometimes Mr. G. inspires me, when he lays on the sofa or he does long naps or just hangs around. Then I could write a post about lazy people but that starts with L or retired people and that starts with "R". So nothing for "I".

The fact that we were without electricity and wandered around with torches and lighted candles and I chatted with the neighbors on our mobiles because the telephone didn't work, would fit on a theme about electricity breakdowns, but this again is better for E.

It also had snowed and the world around me became suddenly white. Again a good subject for S or for W which stands for Winter. That makes me think that I could write about ice, but what ? Nobody broke its neck or legs so far and nobody does ice skating they are all too old, I mean my neighbors.



This picture could also inspire me to write about very bad fashion tastes, or insane women, or about those who fool  the world and make money out of it. The only practical thing with this bikini is that she can hang her wet bikini on the machine guns to dry.

Wasn't I inspired today ?



I'll do the same next time !


Good idea for creating a consultant office !



In our home it's rather the other way around !

FUN MONDAY - Work



Sayre has this challenge for us :

Take your camera to work and take pictures of the things that inspire you as you work or that inspires your coworkers. Ask them (or yourself) what it is about that particular object or picture that makes the work day seem a little easier.

If you don't work outside the home, take a picture of the thing that helps you get through the day and inspires you to have the best day you can.

Since a few years I don't work outside anymore, but I don't work inside either. I run my own company, by running in and around our house, in short : I am retired.

To help me getting through the day I have 5 things and not only one. My 5 cats !

I have to settle their fights

I am sending my only employe to the mailbox so that I avoid too much effort and am not overworked,

I also leave him the education of our youngest cat Rosie

and I use my cats as models. See above header

I also watch TV when it is cold and rainy outside

and all this inspires me to make the best of my days. I need no help to go through it ! Days are even too short !
