I don't know that I would say I truly seized the day yesterday, but I accomplished a fair amount. There is an old saying, they want to have their cake and eat it, too. When I first
heard that, I didn't know what it meant, and I think it probably was being used to describe
a wayward husband. Now I think it often applies to my life, not in that respect, of course, but for example, on my days off, I want to stay home, and I want to go out. I want to do this, but I want to do that, seems like I'm always at cross purposes. I'm glad I have some options and the freedom to choose, but it seems like I always want it all, and that's not possible. Today I have some choices to make, then I'm back to work and my time will no longer be my own. Sometimes I feel like that's ok, I'm almost tired of making choices. I'm ready to let someone else do it for a while. Silly, isn't it? At work I just move through the tasks of the day, it's kind of therapeutic, adding a different dimension to my life. Sometimes I think I can see how people can become workaholics. It's really easier most of the time than dealing with everything on the homefront, and my homefront is great. It would really be tough if there was lots of turmoil at home. Wow. Anyway, after a few days of work, I'll have my head squared up on my shoulders again, and I'll be excited about being free again. I'll look forward to being at home and having the time to do whatever I want to do with my day, sort of. At least that's what I tell myself.
Am I just crazy, or does this ring a bell with anyone?
Sorry if I'm whinning, I'm really fine and happy to be here. It's going to be a great day. I'm just expressing these thoughts that go through my head and wondering, am I the only one who has them? Surely not.
Have a blessed day. I'll be reading some of your blogs later, I'm sure.
Your bloggy friend,
Gram
