The Best Laid Plans....

This is how it goes. You plan and organize and set everything up just so and you're ready and - BOOM! Something happens that messes up any semblance of order and routine you had. I speak from experience and I'm sure you hear me from experience.

I had it all planned out. I was going to write the next few posts in response to emails and comments I'd gotten about the previous posts here. I was going to focus on routines, making routines routine, organizing, keeping to a schedule etc. etc. And then - BOOM! I broke a leg - not in the theatrical way (but it has gotten me thinking again about some old things in new ways...) yes, I broke my foot. So besides the pain and annoyance and aggravation and not being able to function like I'm used to (let's not even talk about the hours that I walk every day which I can't do for a while...)there are a number of things that had to be put on hold, reorganized and re-figured.


Life Skills Tips for Children of All Ages


* Think of alternative ways to do the things you wanted to do.
* Remember all the projects you've wanted to complete that didn't fit into your
regular schedule. Can you do any of them now?
* Indulge yourself in ways you might not otherwise. Treat yourself well.
* Ask for help. You can't do all the things you normally would right now. Who can
help?

Stay well and healthy!
