kathy --- did you ever get anyone to "narrrow down" or focus on one of
these? or did you decide what you might enjoy most working on and

all
oh no?
i don't know -- i think it works/words/says VERY well this way! LOTS of
ideas sort of a flood you captured the energy now the notion will take its
own form (but i'm glad i don't have to choose) on we go

I think this well speaks to YOUR sensibility which sounds very generous
