PLANNING AND TRUSTING

Yep, it's been almost a month with NO new posts.  Again.  I'm slowing and slowing more and more or so it appears.  I don't really have a lot of wise words, just wanted to share another saying that passed by my way.  You can see it at the end of this uninteresting post.

Since Covid, I've had my sleep apnea test, seen the ENT who I am pretty sure will join the list of my top three favorite doctors, seen my hip PA and gotten x-rayed as I got my foot caught up in my vacuum cord while vacuuming the kitchen pantry.  Lesson number one in this painful event is vacuuming a kitchen pantry is very overrated and lesson two, of course, is to not tangle your foot in the vacuum cord....or any cord.  Luckily for this event, I realized my head was headed toward the corner of the desk for a direct hit and I put my right hand out to avoid that.  Yes, the right hand still has a bit of swelling on the top above my wrist but it was a great weapon from a head hit.  The force from that hand hitting the corner of the desk pushed me back into the vintage padded den chair that fortunately has a home by my desk in the kitchen.  Even at that, it was a forceful hit with much soreness and a residual bad pain that I feared might be my non-bionic hip.  Happily, the hip in not much worse than the last X-ray a year and a half ago and sadly, the pain is thought to come from my back.  I will begin a new relationship this afternoon with physical therapy and it's joys that I am confident will be positive for me.    As for the ENT, yes, there's a mechanical problem so I'm not making it all up.  The simply remedy is continuing for 23 more days before my sinuses get a CT.  Let's just say that I have the cleanest nose in this household.   If I'm going to practice what I preach to my elder relatives, I have to follow physician's instructions completely.  I'm gonna do it!

So truly all that was just to take up space in this post and is meaningless to you.  My mind is just weary of too much thinking.  So to share my saying I have heard and will commit to my memory....

The more one knows about the Planner, the more he can trust the Plan.

Mull that one over a bit in your mind and heart.  I like it!

Consider....
