Where to begin . . . and what should
you expect?
“If you’re not making mistakes, then
you’re not doing anything.” John Wooden.
Apparently, I have been doing plenty!
Marrying Mr. Wonderful. Raising three daughters. Starting grad
school at age 40. Moving ten times (NOT in the witness protection program). And,
as my dear departed dad would say, I was “right up front” when God gave
out the klutz gene.
A well-adjusted person would just move
on with life. Not me. Inventing perfect do-overs is in my nature.
Thus, I have accumulated a Vast Storehouse of Hindsight. I cannot promise
it is 20/20 (and sometimes I got nothin’), but now and then it might be better
than what I did at the time. So, I will share.
Note to Self: when you
find yourself in muck to your armpits, (a) you are not the first person step in
it, and (b) it will not help to stand there and shout "why in the world
did I walk into this??"
IT IS WHAT IT IS.
Time to don your big kid pants and
hasten to Plan B (C, D, etc.).
And most of life's awkward situations
will, at the very least, give you a funny story to tell.
Ask me.
I know.
