THE BEST LAID PLANS

OF MICE AND MEN ... SEPTEMBER 19 2012....

How true that is.

My usual morning routine:

I lay in bed for a few minutes, getting myself pulled together, both physically and mentally.  The mentally is the hard part.

While doing this I sort of plan what my day will be like - what will I be doing, and in what order will I be doing it.

Today, being Wednesday, there is Bible Study.  Good, I can be there, then this afternoon possibly work outside, or inside, or whatever.  Good.  Time to get up.  Day is all planned to my satisfaction.

By now it is 7:45 a.m.  Regardless of what bossman says, I do manage to get up at a decent time. I have my morning glass of juice and hot tea, sit down at the computer to catch up with whatever needs catching up with, and the phone rings.  Now what?

It is a delivery company with a delivery for the kitchen.  They are in Shadyside, Ohio, and want to know if it would be convenient for them to make the delivery now. 

Of course there is no way I can say "Nope.  Sorry.  I already have my day planned and you are not part  of the plan."

Bossman would throw me out.  

So, I start re-arranging.  Of course the delivery arrives about 10 a.m.  So much for Bible Study.  My whole day is thrown out of kilter.  Now what do I do?  Go back to bed, pretend I have just wakened up and start planning my day, or just goof off.  The goofing off part sounds good to me.

As I said - the best laid plans.......

Have a good day and God Bless.
