Handwriting versus Typing
The pictures are an article from research done in Norway on the brain activity during writing by hand and typing on a keyboard.

The researchers conclude that the unique motor and sensory experience of holding a pen plays a key role in brain development and learning. As a result, they argue that handwriting instruction should remain a core part of education to support deeper comprehension and cognitive growth in the next generation.

Monday
Good Morning!
It is going to be a super hot and humid week, yuck! Already have everything closed up curtains closed and the fans on. Most i will be doing today is stitching and going thru my recipes ( I tend to rip out and collect from magazines ) so now time to go thru and discard some. Gracie is laying on the cool tile floor in the kitchen already. Take care and stay safe and cool.

Hugs
Holly

so hard to see
Just ordered Lady Sillouette. The lady (in black) is ok for me to follow but the background with the tree and little blossoms on it is very challenging. Athough I wear 250 reading glasses for all my cross stitching, I found that these glasses may not be enough. I am wondering about magnification. I see these contraptions that are worn around your neck. Will this work for me ? I am wondering if any of you lovely ladies can clue me in on what the best thing to get for this problem I have. I love the pattern and really want to do this !

GOOD MORNING - What's on your mind MONDAY
Good Monday morning everyone. June is almost over and it has gone very quickly. Getting ready for 4th of July weekend. Yesterday was nice because I heard from both of my sons and we had good conversations. They will be 34 and 40 next month. The heat has arrived, air conditioning is on, and have planned inside activities this week. Have a great week ahead!
