Being Open To Winging It
It has been such a unscheduled day, my lists and careful planning were useless. Not usually a good thing for me. The rest of the house lives by the motto Just Wing It. They thrive on it. Winging it tends to lead to growing chaos and frustration in my head. That leads to make it feel better and go away fast, HMMM will it be sweet, fatty, salty, no a mix of it all this time. Well, today as the Argh feeling was taking root thought, ok wing it. Throw it all to the wind like the guys, make the times you need to be somewhere but use the filler times as it falls. Finish what can be, but decided what can not, will be finish as it can be (what?! ok, forgot winging). Went into the gym starting to stress. Middle of the afternoon...should be elsewhere, but by mid way into the workout felt that centered feeling. The routine would have to be shortened (what, here sweating, have to do it all, remember winging here!). Get to the locker room cell ringing. Son's appt. has to be bumped up. So goes the rest of the day and evening. As the winging mentality was wearing thin tonight felt the Argh growing again. Pulled out the Pilates DVD, needed to get that centered feeling again. Morale looking back on the day, the combination of the stress relieving exercise and willingness to be flexible can stop the ugly food fixes. I can never give up my lists/plans but maybe they can be written in pencil instead of ink.
