Developing My Thoughts and Expanding on Ideas

Wow, it's been a couple months since my last post...  I've had some ideas but they were still pretty vague/half-baked ideas in my head, thus, I kept putting them off until I had it just right [there must be something to that "perfectionist" thinking].

In the past week or so, though, I've been thinking about how I'm processing [or not] these thoughts and ideas.  So right now I'm thinking that to be more effective, I'd be better at writing about them as I go along. Because I have ADHD, I often have racing thoughts and thus, often getting bogged down with the initial ideas. And with getting distracted very easily-often from my racing thoughts jumping around or those 'voices' in my head, nothing wasn't getting fully processed. So, frequent frustrations have been very common.

So though I started blogging to share ideas and stuff I've read, seen, or have memories of, I'm going to try and be more consistent about posting about thoughts and ideas earlier in the process and then expanding or changing these ideas.  Another aspect of my ADHD is that I'm not organized at all, so this will be a place where I can keep them someplace where I'll be able to find them.

Of course, I'll continue to post stuff I come across, ideas, and things that I'd love to read about.

I know that not many people know about my site [yet?], I really do want to hear what y'all think about my postings--and/or to feel free to ask questions [including the stuff mentioned above]. If you don't want to post here, feel free to send me an email at denisephoto.yahoo.com or, for those of you that are local, to tell me in person or by phone. If you have information and/or ideas of your own that you'd like me to share [anonymously, if you so choose], again, do let me know. I really would like to see other or differing thoughts so we can all learn.

Thanks much in advance as well as reading this far!  :-)
