Lately I’ve been feeling a little frazzled. Information over load? Too much brainstorming? An abundance of zombie fighting? There are some days where I feel like the next thing may make me explode. Ok, I know I won’t literally explode…but my screaming at the top of my lungs could very well cause someone’s eardrums to explode.
Be kind. Please unwind!
I recently downloaded a meditation app on my iPod Touch, basically something calming to listen to so that I can close my eyes & shut everything else out for just a few minutes. I forget about any frustrations or the many things that keep my mind spinning. Oh…my…goodness! I was so surprised with how wonderful just a few minutes of peace can be.
In the past I would turn to sticks & string for my release, but I found that while knitting is great for my soul during times like this…it wasn’t good for my gauge or my yarn. One minute that beautiful creation would fit like a glove. A few frustrating moments later & *BAM* it’s not even fit for a mutant. Now that I make it a point to clear my mind before handling pointy sticks, things are looks more like socks & less like a cozy for Cobra.
It’s so amusing how a tiny bit of technology can change a mood & my knitting with just one little app!
That’s my thought this Thursday…what’s yours?
