This is a great trick justgal! I used to know the sign language alphabet – wouldn’t be hard to pick it up again.
Of course, there are occasions when about a million shiny thoughts all occur, one right after the other, and it’s all I can do to herd them into a spot where I can easily get to them. I think even a pen and paper would only be able to capture a handful of them. Hate/love it when that happens.
