Life. Is it more than just a cereal or a board game? I started out with a determination of a Jack Russell that I would write here every day only to come to the realization I am more like the Jed’s dog on Beverly Hillbillies. All the hyper vigilance has melted into a lazy day on the porch.
I had (yes, past tense) a cold which kept me from continuing my work out routine. In fact one day all I did was sleep. But I am much better now. So today, I was planning on going to the gym. I really do enjoy the Zumba class even if I can’t move my behind in time to the music I still work at it and in my mind I am fine… TMI?? Sorry.
I brought my gym bag with me into work so I could change and go straight to the class. No excuses for me. Not going home and then let the “oh, just sit for a few minutes” gremlins work their mischievous magic. Most of the day thoughts ran through my head. Do I really want to go work out? Of course you do, said the cheerleaders that help me stay focused. Yes, I have a lot of voices in my head (the good kind). Finally it is time to clock out and change clothes. Off to the gym I go. I grab my bag and…and…I only have two towels and my tennis shoes in the bag. I went off and left my gym clothes at home. Oh what a psychologist could say about this.
So I did the only thing I could think of. I went home and cleaned. Did the dishes, folded my laundry and put my forgotten gym clothes in the bag so I can go to the gym in the morning before work.
Maybe Life is just a board game. And I had to take two steps back and wait for my next turn to roll the dice. But just like the board game, I will finish in due time and I will achieve all that I truly desire.
