The Planner: Slipping Off To Time Portals Unknown

Today, The Planner, wants to toss her carefully laid out planner in the air 

And head for an unknown Time Portal.

The Planner: My California Primary Ballot MAILED

Most Important Task in my Erin Condren Planner this Week

Had a great walk to the mailbox with my husband and dog after supper last night. We could only drop two completed ballots into the box. The pooch doesn't get one. 

Though I bet somebody's dog is voting out there.

What We Moderns Forget: Envelopes

The letter had been lost for 450 years. It’s envelope had gotten stuck under the inside flap of an old ledger box. No museum archivist had noticed it until Will Sainsbury came along to do a little research of his own.

I must have edited that scene fifteen to twenty times, before it occurred to me that a letter written in  the era of Elizabeth the First would probably not have been enclosed in an envelope,

Back in ancient days of BCE, Babylonians and Chinese people are known to have provided protective wrappings for some communications. It’s not totally beyond the realms of possibility others throughout the ages sometimes protected something important. 

But we better just fold up Will’s letter, seal it, and push it in under the lid.

What We Moderns Forget: Light

In the 'midst of an historical story WHO HERE has not forgotten that our heroine needs to grab a candle, lamp, torch, or perhaps a shuttered lantern when she trips off to run into the antagonist?

Planners are Liminal Spaces : From Everyday to Imagined

My Erin Condren Catchall Planner Earlier This Week

#Planners are also #LiminalSpace - Because they lead from my everyday world to a mystic land, where I get everything done as imagined.

 

I adorn my #decoratedPlanner weekly, with collages of favorite designs, photos, stickers, and flip-back windows that hide private ideas. A washi tape hinge allows the decorative paper to flip back, so I can write private plans and ideas underneath.

Dog's Eye View of Liminal Space

Dog's have their own view of  #LiminalSpace.

Jasper* finds it between sea and shore in  History Rich Half Moon Bay, CA

*If you're looking to be rescued by a dog, check Jasper's first home at Tiramisu Dog Rescue. They saved him from, what would have been, a very short life on the streets, And he was cared for and trained extremely well.

A Time Portal is Liminal Space

A time portal is neither here nor there. 

 It exists in Liminal Space* 

Shall we stop and consider our choices?

Or let Time take us where she wills?

* Liminal Space is the area between here and there. It is also between the ordinary world and the mystic.
