While I'm busy with other stuff, here are some more things I've found! I found this list in Chicago. I am fascinated by the two columns, and how items in the column range so much from the everyday stuff ("chocolate & red wine") to characteristics of the person making the list ("knows how to listen," "brilliant" which is crossed off) to goals for the future ("give yourself permission to see things from a different perspective free from the pressures of peers and the beliefs of the Matrix").

Even adjacent items are sometimes so different: "feeling disconnected from my higher knowing due to not accepting my inner wisdom" and "paying bills is a struggle," for example. The back of the page is below.

This was found outside my old Ann Arbor house around 2004. I loved that instead of writing HerName HisName, she's writing "cardiologist" and "princess" at the same time, and I thought I'd post it today since it's kind of you-go-girl and all that. Then I found an article from Ann Arbor (where this note was found) that said a 9 year-old girl by this name was given a heart transplant in 2000. A heart transplant. Aw. That makes her about 13 when this note was found in our yard, and it helps explain why a curly-handwriting teenager is dreaming about cardiology. You go, girl.

She was also in a 5K run in 2002. I hope she's doing OK.

Happy Valentine's Day.
