Five Senses Friday

I've seen this everywhere.
Abby from abby try again gives credit to Shari Altman for it's conception.
I think it is an interesting check on where you are...

Seeing: Rain...Horizontal. An inside out umbrella. An earlier attempt at staying dry. Failed.
Hearing: Dripping of rain...Cat wailing (for what? I have no idea!)
Tasting: Dark, hot coffee. Chocolate covered raisins...Far too many chocolate covered raisins.
Touching: Paper. My paper trail is currently everywhere, leading to nowhere. Organizing.
Smelling: Coffee. Apple cinnamon candle.

and where you want to be...

...I will soon be...
seeing steam and words of a novel, hearing classical music
(bach) low volume, tasting cool lemon water from a wine glass, touching hot, oily bath water, smelling lavender oil...


I've had a very uninspired few days...I hope next week brings something bright and beautiful my way. And for you too.

Oh, how I love this idea and loved this post! You've inspired me to go take a long hot soak.

Totally hear you on being uninspired as of late. I'll be keeping you in my thoughts as we both seek out our spark.
