I looked for a package that gave me flexibility while using mobile technology. There were a number of well known and well established packages out there but my preference needed to blend its self to my automatic state of working.
Often I would unknowingly start doodling with either a pen or pencil, it matters not. This activity was a byproduct of having the right side of my brain engaged in a meeting and the left side of my brain in free-fall.

This is my first real ‘thing’ I liked enough to want to publish. Tiding up is a must, which is an anathema to automatism but at present needed.
