Good Evening Travellers,

I’m sliding into here with what’s left of this Monday by the skin of my teeth. I wish I had made it here this morning, but alas, it was not meant to be. Or rather I did not make it be.

How’s life been treating you or rather how have you been treating your life? That’s really what it is isn’t it, how do we treat ourselves each day? Stay tuned for that tune tomorrow..tonight we shall build great things with our imagination…because it’s still Imagination Monday for another 4 hours and 20 minutes at the time I type these words…

Good evening lovely Travellers,

How did you fare today on this fine Monday? It’s abit overcast here and gloomy and windy and chilly and well, Fall. First day I’ve adorned myself with a sweater. And there is a chill drifting over the hard wood floors in the house, which means there’s only 5 months till we are back to Spring!!

Let’s talk about “O”…and by the way, in case you have just stumbled into this space, on Mondays we wear pink! No, on Monday’s we use our imaginations to invoke fun and frivolity. We remind ourselves that the world is filled with all the joys of our childhood if we just take a moment and pause to engage that part of our minds.

Good evening Travellers,

I realize I am sooooo late, my apologies. I missed the early morning…because it’s my birthday today and well, HERE I AM!!! Since it’s my birthday, you gotta open ALL THE LINKS. Think of it as my present to you!

Have about we call this the Midnight edition of Imagination Monday?

Happy Monday Travellers!!

It begins again, doesn’t it? I awoke this morning to a strange dream and THIS SONG playing over and over in my head. All I could hear Rihanna and the words, “So live your life..” and then I realized, today is “L” and “L” is for LIFE, isn’t it?

In case you are new here, GREETINGS and SALUTATIONS, please refer to this post, or this post, or any Monday post that begins it’s title with a letter in quotations. It’ll give you a better idea of what’s happening in the space below, but in short, I’m using a childhood exercise to reframe Mondays. To remove the dread and despair and replace it with fun and imagination.

“H” is for a sun filled window and saying HELLO!!

Good morning Travellers,

It’s another Monday without a sunrise, instead there is just a gloomy cloud filled sky. And let’s not lie, that sort of environment makes difficult soil for joy to grow, but shouldn’t we still try? Apparently, I’m also rhyming today…wouldn’t it be awesome if one day a week everything you said had to rhyme?

Since it’s a Monday, it’s time to exercise your imagination, so do your stretches, take a few laps around your mental track, here we go…if you are unfamiliar with this little situation, please revisit my “A” post…or seek out the other letters…

“G” is for fish cars & jungle gym bars

It’s Monday again Travellers,

This is a humid one with a rather difficult start. It was hard for me to rise and shine, just like the sun is having a hard time finding it’s way thru the wavy cloud banks this morning. And we encountered many unpleasant smells and grumpy faces on our walk. I thought I should let you know that not every morning is amazing here, but we keep going. Apparently, the world did not get the memo today that Mondays are now fun, or at least they COULD be…

Today our letter is “G” and you are really going to have to close your eyes and visualize these ideas because they require some serious imagination skills. Do you remember how to do that, close yours and see all the possibilities and none of the restrictions we place on ourselves as adults. I believe we call it reality…yea, you’re going to have to suspend that for now…
