#SOLSC24
My inspiration for this slice was Elizabeth’s Ellington ’Monday Musings on a Tuesday #sol22 15/31, who was inspired by Monday Musings at Peace Be the Journey. I am loving how this year I’m inspired from writers who are inspired by other writers! What surprised me yesterday? Yesterday my husband and I met friends for breakfast at Poxabogue golfing range in East Hampton with the plan to eat breakfast and then, to hit some golf balls. It was unexpected as we rarely go out to breakfast on a Sunday morning and since our friends moved to East Hampton, we don’t often spend time together. If you’re like me and married, you find it a rarity that you and your husband both enjoy the company of another couple. I had met Elaine when we randomly both signed up for a weekly tennis court when our children were little over thirty years ago! She is a dynamo. She now runs her own company successfully. Back in the 80’s she was one of the few women who held positions in large companies when the internet first took off. Whenever I am with her, I feel inspired. She is always searching for her best self and inspires me to think about what I want in my life. It was her husband’s birthday, which added to the surprise of the day. We chatted, laughed, and shared stories as we ate breakfast outside in the sunshine, while a musician played on his guitar Jim Croce and James Taylor songs. What touched my heart yesterday? After we met our friends at the Paxabogue golfing range, we drove to see Henry and Anna at our daughter and son-in-law's new house on Long Island. Henry, my two-year-old grandson, gave me a huge hug the minute he saw me, even though he woke up from his nap and there were many people visiting his home. He always manages to make me feel special and loved no matter what he is involved in and who is around. What inspired me today? I am feeling a little lost lately. I am not sure where I want to focus my energy planning for my future. I have always loved learning and taking classes. I arranged to audit a district TRACK class. The class is about how to organize your internet life. I am an extremely organized person, but Google drive and files on my computers confuse me. I was inspired to go through old files and clean up untitled documents and the gazillions of slide shows and documents I have gathered over the years. After spending time trying to figure it all out, I gave up. It’s exhausting deleting and renaming and organizing!

I'm glad you found some inspiration in my post! Your post inspired me to create a new folder in my Google drive, which is also a mess., to organize one of my classes. I am not an organized person on or off the Internet. The class you signed up for sounds interesting.
