Hank you Micky and Laura You know Laura you are right – I am trying to do too much too quickly and hen my mind gets boggled ! I have just queries if I could have ADD- my mind flits from project to project. Today a regular everyday occurrence brought home the difference in my “then and now ” life. I always knew the date the bank statement was due . If it hadn’t arrived by Saturday , I always had a plan to get my husband out of the way so that I could grab it and destroy it . Sometimes I insisted he get a lie in and I would ever so slowly make breakfast for him to have in bed . Sometimes I urgently needed something from a shop . Sometimes I sent him to the recycling centre . Sometimes I planned a weekend away just so I could drive way over a hundred mile round trip home to grab the post – I would the return and pretend I had spent the morning looking around the local shops . Sometimes I sent a friend to pick up the post so burglars wouldn’t see it lying by the front door. I was so crazy -and so creative in my attempts to hide the evidence . So this morning I was making everyone a cooked breakfast – because I wanted to ! – and the post came . The dog barked , and I realised it is no longer a huge event in my life . I no longer wait impatiently on the postman with my heart in my mouth, I no longer have to plan days in advance for his visit , I no longer have to rush home from work to make sure I get my hands on the statement . I no longer wake up in fear, planning how to manage huge event of the post dropping through the door . What a crazy way to live .
