What I Threw Out Today

I began September 21 2010 - To record of some ephemera I had collected before disposing of them

THURSDAY ON TUESDAY (or maybe Wednesday)

I don't even seem to have entered an image here yet - but i'm pretty sure I did take one - welll, wait and see if something appears.
Well I found the image which I had taken but mislaid yesterday ( Tuesday) and here it is:


 This is a selection of leaflets from an event I attended to promote mental health. A number of the organizations mentioned in the leaflets had their offices in Carmichael Centre for Voluntary Groups where I worked as a receptionist for a year.

When I started working there, I thought I would never remember who was in which group, and what room were they in. Yet with some effort, within about three weeks or less, I had mastered the whole population, and it became a great pleasure to be able to greet each person by name, and to know which group they belonged to.

Sadly, within a very short time of moving to work in Tallaght, all this detail faded from my memory - how true it is: If you don't use it, you lose it.
