Neutrals (8)

Neutral-thinking exploration

• My tutoring table—and central command post for almost all my deskwork—is a 1950's kitchen table with green Formica laminate top, chrome metal edging around the tabletop, and chrome legs.
• This morning's high humidity gave way to an afternoon downpour.
• Today I set about drafting my post by intentionally not including any headings initially. I entered my first statement above, and Grammarly identified the tone as joyful. After entering the second statement, the post as a whole was optimistic, and it remained optimistic as I wrote this very sentence. I then began entering the heading for this section; the tone remained optimistic until I entered the word exploration, at which point Grammarly indicated: anxious.

I wonder how Grammarly would react if it could read your image?

Jen, you've got me looking at this piece with new eyes! It has become a little neighbor all woke up! Thank you for that : )

Grammarly is making me laugh, I gotta say.

haha, well, anxious fits most exploration. Haha. Love the table! And this start is very graphically pleasing. Also I see a touch of 50's-60's space era details. ;o)

Sheila, thanks for your feedback here. Ironically, as I reply today, it is precisely this piece I am working on to take from a start to a finish, and I am totally stumped — not finding the piece graphically pleasing in the least! Your words encourage me to keep exploring …
