Midsummer Night's Dreaming (yet up wide awake)

2:20am
Something happened when I turned 40. I developed chronic insomnia, like my brain just WILL NOT shut down. I found that it is most severe when I have a million ideas swirling in my head, and I just
​ need to make them stop. Hence I revived my love of journaling. 
​   

I have always had a facination with note books & pens. More like a borderline obsession..especially with a GOOD ink pen..lol! Writing is theraputic, and tends to remind me of back in the day when I received that first diary, you know the one with the "lock" that anyone could pick, you just didn't know it at the time! 
​

I seriously have journals and notebooks Ehh.Ver. Ree.Where! Each new project needs its own book, as well as my never ending to do list, plus the notebooks that I take on client meetings. 

A decade ago (wow that makes me sound old), I was promoted into a high profile position, and was blessed to have a boss who was genuinely vested in seeing me succeed. Best piece of advice that she ever gave me was, 
"Shan, you don't HAVE to remember everything. You simply need to write it down, and remember where you wrote it!" 
Awwh...the key to becoming Super Girl, in my case Wonder Woman because I always loved Linda Carter and that invisible airplane. BEHOLD my current beauty (Mother's Day gift from the hubster & crew). Also came with a mega sized coffee cup (probably adds to my insomina, but oh well!)
