Sunny,
Interesting that you would use the word neurons, because I have just
learned about neurons and the firing of them in my Pysch
class...unfortunately, I haven't been inspired to sew and now with me
trying to keep up with learning to drive school bus routes, homework,
housework and keeping up with my son, three dogs and my kitties I
sometimes feel like I don't have any neurons left to fire! ha ha!
And yes, usually something new does it!
