Some days…it happens…well…really it doesn’t happen…anything of interest…anyway…yesterday was one of those days…
I went to work…uneventful…and…even if it weren’t…I really can’t blog about that…confidentiality…and all…‘cause…I really like my house…wouldn’t want to lose it in a lawsuit…just to tell you what kid had a boo-boo…
Did errands after work…came home…ate…cleaned out the fridge…took out the garbage…washed the dishes…played on Facebook…Twitter…Email…
And…that was about it…no adrenaline flowing…all day…no major crises to attend to…no jumping out of planes…no putting out fires…and…no flowing tears…in a word…I could probably say it was…boring…
But…I chose another word…perfect…
I remember years…when I thrived…on adrenaline…on the rush…of a near disaster…real or imagined…sometimes…according to…Bertha…I even created some of those situations…albeit unconsciously…just for the rush…she even uttered those words…DQ…Drama Queen…
And…I suppose they used to fit…I can remember…staying in the thick of things…in years gone by…now…maybe it’s age…maybe it’s wisdom…no…couldn’t be that…but…whatever the reason…I just want…peaceful days…and…I spend a good deal of time…doing things…that help me get just that…
Prayer…Contemplation…Reiki…Forgiveness Prayer…all help keep me centered…and…keep the adrenaline rush…at bay…
Now…don’t get me wrong…I’m not saying that I never…get involved…in a bit of gossip…get my dander up…stick my nose where it doesn’t belong…it’s just that I don’t enjoy it…like I used to…I find it unsettling…and…I do something to get back to center…
So…for now…when…I need a little…DQ…fix…I go for the other one…Dairy Queen…hey…ice cream…beats…adrenaline rush…any day…

Me, too. Been there, done that. Sometimes caused the scene myself. I love “boring” days. I try to have several of them all in a row!
Peggy…it must be wisdom…that has changed our minds…I agree…I’m so looking forward to a summer full of boring days!
Mmm now I am thinking about ice cream! Funny, I had a piece of ice cream cake the other day. True story! Even when some days don’t seem to have a lot of activity, you still come up with great posts here 🙂
Christy,
Yummy…ice cream cake…now I want that! Thanks for your continued support!
