My thoughts released; a mind set free

These pages contain my thoughts, from meandering ideas and persuasions to deep cerebrations and serious mentations.

Why, for what purpose? To release my mind and set creativity free. Somewhere inside the constraints of my mind dwells a writer, a poet, an artist who paints with words. In here, I release those constraints and set the artist free.

Perhaps, lost somewhere in the depths of thought, is a story or a poem, waiting to be written.

Some days it's difficult to think of anything worth writing about. Today is one of them. With the weather being so cold, there's just not much going on. Not that I sit and stare off into space (well, not very often), but most of the things I do to stay occupied aren't worth writing over.

It only warmed up to -15oF today, but the sun is shining, and the wind isn't blowing very hard. Tonight is going to be about five degrees colder than last night, dipping as low as -33oF, so I'm still driving my wife back and forth to work.

I stopped at Ace Hardware while I was in town and purchased two candleabra light bulbs to put in our electric fireplace. The old ones burned out, and I enjoy turning it on in the evenings and watching the flickering flames, especially when it's cold out like it is now.

I also want to start setting up the camper we are purchasing, but not in this cold. The guy we're buying it from did post in the advertisement that he would deliver it if needed; my wife and I are thinking about having him bring it over so we can start getting things ready. Hopefully, he'll still be willing to deliver, but if not, I can take the topper off and put the fifth wheel back in and bring it home.

A lot of things pending, and a lot of things I should do. But it's getting on towards dinner time, so maybe tomorrow.
