Dominoes
Posted 02-17-2014 at 09:09 AM by grumptacular
That's the best way I can draw an analogy!
I have things that need to get done, all of the big things to keep the momentum moving forward are all set. I have a whole new life I am starting!! Like a long line of strategically placed dominoes. I am waiting in anticipation for that first domino to tip and start the chain reaction. Just waiting....
Until that time, I'm on hold. It's caused me to loose some of the high that came with my initial mindset, and as a result some of the passion I had has dwindled. I don't know what to write about these days. Most of my days in the past week have been filled with snow days, cleaning the house, and waiting...
I have the power to set the first domino in motion now, but I risk the dominoes not falling correctly. I just have to be cool enough to allow things to progress on their own.
Patients is a virtue, but it also knocks me down a bit. The lack of movement causes me to feel stagnant and I fear being complacent. That fear causes me to make knee jerk reactions at times. I've had enough reasons lately to show that doesn't work out well for me. Patients....
I could find a new hobby and all that. I tried that yoga thing for about 30 minutes....not for me. I thought about trying that planking exercise, but that close to a flat surface and the desire to take a nap is too strong.
I miss working. I miss that as a component to break up the day. The feeling of accomplishment from a hard days work. I shoveled my sidewalk the other day. It took a while. I was hoping for a spike, like when Rocky caught the chicken, but nothing. It's winter time. Doldrums.
I appreciate the support and comments. The motivation and encouragement.
I'm good

Winter sucks...so sick of the snow...doldrums may be the answer...get a set of drums, and practice, if nothing else it will annoy the heck out of your neighbors and maybe you'll meet new people that way :-)
