various thoughts on working

Experiencing more spontaneity and fluency in my work. I guess this comes from age, feeling secure, achieving more balance in my life or, maybe, just an illusion of many of these elements when I've simply been blessed with these "abilities".
Recently have done some drawings and, now absent more intense scrutiny and many questions about just where to put the next line, these works seem to flow. This flow is only interrupted occasionally and, at that point, the started drawing has a very good chance of winding up in fragments on the paper recycle pile.
These days,  I cannot save a fragments of a started painting, but must start all over again, rather than try and come back next day/next hour and try and attach good new stuff to older good bits-I know this now to not only be a tendency for me, but also that the sew-together thing will be a Frankenstein-all stops and starts with no real flow. The act of salvaging doesn't work for me in this respect.
A good feeling comes from destroying old work that no one seems to take notice of (there's too much work around here as it is!)...I'm not so sure that it is an old (good) work that is being annihilated or that perhaps that sacrifice is worth making way for the new stuff to come. Maybe this is a kind of balance or trade-done in the interest of (valuable) real estate.
It really is incredible to me that mornings are the most valuable time for me when it comes to creative thinking and effective working. A supposition: that each individual has a "perfect" or "good" time to do their thinking/working. Guess it might be informative to ask arrive, if only to satisfy my own curiosity.
Additional note: I'm starting to dream a lot more about my work...last night "returned" to an old photo I've seen (could not find it this morning)-foggy b+w scene of two air balloons ascending in a foreign field-this may lead to a new work...

A hound on a long trail....and so far, relentless...
