Something has Changed
It is difficult to put into words, this subtle yet monumental shift. Everything which seemed to be so important, yet so hard - suddenly it seems achievable. I am not certain what was in the way, or what has changed. Mountain of paperwork on my desk, taunting me for months now? Consider it flattened. Phone calls needing to be made? Done. Appointments needing to be scheduled? On the books. Exercise? Even I can manage ten minutes a day (it's a start) Drinking water? One sip at a time. Study? Can't wait. Cleaning my house? Only as much as I can handle in a half-hour. Doing something I love? Surely I can pull out a music book and practice singing, create something, or read for ten minutes (again, baby steps!) Even today, with one child home (asthma-related respiratory crud), and kids doing the opposite of getting ready for school, and a dog who can push the door open yet not closed (she too originated in Narnia I suspect, but can a dog be taught to close a door??
