What's in a name?

According to my Apple dictionary, admittedly not a definitive source, a ‘consideration’ is a thought, reflection, meditation, concern, rumination etc. I would like this blog to do those things. I’m hoping I can keep the posts positive because, as someone once reminded me, it is important to practise the habits of mind that you value and want to foster. For me those are: positivity, curiosity, openness and self-reflection (hence, a blog is a good forum).


Also, I’m calling them 'small' because I would like to try to get into the habit of blogging briefly but often. That way I can reflect on everyday occurrences and make this form of writing and thinking a habit, hopefully.

Happy viewing is like pickles and peanut butter. (37/100)

My husband and I don't often agree on what to watch. Inevitably it ends up being a compromise and one of us is not entirely happy with the choice. It's fine that we have different tastes, but on a Friday night I like curling up and watching something together. My husband has got into Game of Thrones, whereas I saw a few episodes and got bored with all the conniving and killing. Tonight, though, I felt like watching mindless fantasy – I don't know why. It's like a pregnant woman's cravings: why does she want pickles and peanut butter? So tonight my husband and I curled up with the cat on the couch and watched Game of Thrones. I don't know that I'm into it and I'll certainly never be fanatical like some of our friends, but I enjoyed it and may even watch it again. For a change I think my husband and I were both happy with the night's viewing.

36/100 – Twitter – Had an excellent first @Meetup of the Women Who Write group - met many interesting, creative types and had a nice glass of wine too.
