I love words…I love to play with them…twist them…look at them in different ways…I even love to make some up…so…today…Bertha…gave me a treat…she floated a word across my mind…
Grappling…
She chose the word…because…I’ve been stewing about something…giving it a good bit of my time and energy…and…she aptly said…I was…grappling…with it…but…then…perhaps as a distraction…she allowed me to play with the word…here’s how it went…
Hey…what have you been up to…
Oh…I’ve been grappling for a couple of weeks…
Really…grappling…I’m so envious…I love to grapple…we just can’t seem to find the time to do it anymore…
I used to feel that way…had too much to do…didn’t have time to grapple…then…I figured it out…now…I multi-task…I grapple in the shower…grapple at work…don’t tell my boss…I grapple when I watch TV…and I even grapple when…em…well…you know…em…well…don’t tell that either…
That’s amazing…I’m going to try that…now…I can eat my cake…and…grapple at the same time…
I know…isn’t it wonderful…
Oh…now that was fun…and…the strange thing is…I didn’t grapple at all as I typed that…
Hmmm…
