As we get older, we focus more on specialized knowledge than broader learning. A new paper argues thatâs slowing us down.
Well, I may be deluding myself of course, but I feel every bit as sharp as I did 30 years ago. If I needed to learn a new language for example, I’d assume I could just go ahead and do so. How about you?

I’m considering joining in with Tara Leaverâs 21 Days in My Art World challenge
Feel free to make your own version and post it in the comments! 😝
Or maybe it would be fun to do as a cartoon? Going to have a think on that…
Well, technically it’s been a bit more than a year since I moved in. What I can’t fathom is how it could start out like this
And end up like that?
Despite cold winds and rain, nature persists in getting on with spring. Last weekend was fabulous which also meant catching up on some outdoors jobs before the next storm, but I managed an ultra short “blind” photo session (as in “I can’t see a bloody thing on the display in this light”) to remind me that sweater and woodstove days will eventually be over.
Today I noticed the rape seed fields are blooming, which means I’ll be scanning the skyline soon for a very longterm project that I’ve pondered for a while but finally begun to organize at least. Too windy and chilly today however and not enough sun. Hopefully it’s still happening when my back has recovered from last weekend!
How is spring coming along in your part of the world? (or autumn, if that’s the case)
