I had completely and totally forgotten that I was moving.
Moving day arrived and I hadn't done a thing. I hadn't even cleaned the oven!!
I was standing in the middle of my totally lived in house, completely and totally overwhelmed.
And what was the first thing I did?
I picked up the phone and called a friend to cancel our plans for the day. "Sorry ... I forgot that I'm moving today".
Sure, I was worried about how I would manage to move everything out of the house, organize the new place enough to sleep somewhere that night ... and clean the old place.
But what was even more worrisome than all of that??
When could I rebook a day to see my friend?!??
It was only a dream ... do you suppose my subconscious mind is trying to get a message across to me?
Who knows? I just know I don't have a minute to spare today as I'd like to run out shopping before my boss drops by and we go through some 'work stuff'. We must finish early because I'm off to a lunch buffet and play with a friend this afternoon. As soon as I get home, I must run out and pick up a pre-cooked roast chicken for our family's Sunday Supper, after which we are planning on turning on some Christmas tunes, having a drink and decorating the house for Christmas ... together! Then after all that, I have a phone-date with a friend. Thank goodness she lives in a time zone two hours behind us, because it will be a late phone call.
A day like this, is a day which should be totally savored. And it could have been ... had I not gone on such a Wild Turkey Chase yesterday afternoon (and I could have gotten my 'work' and shopping done yesterday). It's a long, boring story about ordering, picking up and delivering three free-range, mostly organic turkeys ... which was complicated by the fact that the PIN number that I have used for my ATM card, the past 20 plus years has completely and totally left my memory bank. The Wild Turkey Chase began only because I didn't have the cash ready and available to pay the Turkey Man, so I 'chased' him across the city which most definitely added a new dimension to a mundane little task.
What is my PIN number and where did I lose it in my mind?
I spent yesterday spinning my wheels and didn't accomplish a thing. I think it may be easier to move ..........
