Well, I had my day off all planned. First, I would sleep late--the phone began ringing at 8 AM--Then I would take my time getting dressed and do a load or two of laundry while I was at it--my mother-in-law called and needed to go to the chiropractor, and it just so happened they could get her right in, so I had an hour to get dressed, go get her, and get to the chiropractor's office. Oh well, I got that done, and talked to a couple of people on the way. I also got an adjustment, which I have needed badly for a couple of months. Boy, it felt good. After stopping for a few things for my mother-in-law, I took her home, got back to the house, finished one load of laundry and started another, and laid down for a quick nap. All the telephone solicitors know I'm home on Mondays now, so the phone rang every 5 minutes. That is not an exageration! Now I know why people are so hesitant to give out their phone number! Finally, I gave up and got up, and got ready to go help my husband with a Christmas party. (I know, I said he was going to have to replace me for the length of this boot camp.......)
I've learned, or remembered, at least two things today. The best laid plans of mice and men (or women).....Plans are made to be broken. As Ginny said on the call, what good is all the money in the world if we are not doing something good for somebody?
I would have been late for the call tonight if it had not been pushed back an hour. And then, it took me a little while to get where I was supposed to be because I had not had time to read my email earlier in the day, so I didn't know about the time change, and when I did read it (while I was listening to strange voices on MY Call! It was the family chat call I guess) I just quickly read through it and didn't register the different number and moderator code.
Well, I might cry if I wasn't laughing at myself so hard. Tomorrow is another day. I have to start out with a plan, but I need to think about an option B. And maybe C.....
Good night everyone! See you tomorrow!
