I Had A Revalation!
For months now, I have been walking during my lunch hour. The criteria when I started was it had to be over 30 degrees, not wet or icy.
The route I take is 2.5 miles round trip, it allows me a nice walk, a brief moment to stop and look at the waterfalls and get back to work on time.
Being a darn creature of habit, I ALWAYS walk the same way, lol
Going on the right side of the street, coming back , half way, I cross the street and return on the left.
One thing that always irks me is 90% of the time the cars don't yield to pedestrians even in the crosswalk when I have to cross the street, even though it's in front of a police station , that cracks me up!
Anyway, today on the way (on the right side) I look across the street and see landscapers working and they have sod all over the sidewalk. So I think, OK..........................well I'll just turn around and come back on the same side of the street.
GOOD GOD.................. WAS IT THAT EASY ALL ALONG? WHY DO I ALWAYS MAKE IT HARD, WAS IT WORTH ALL THE AGGRIVATION FOR MONTHS RISKING MY LIFE IN THAT CROSSWALK?
THIS WAS A TRUE LESSON IN CHANGING YOUR THINKING!!!! DUH
I FEEL LIKE I WON THE PRIZE!

Buffy, you're too funny! I love that others have these types of revelations - I always feel like a dork when I realize something so silly - like when I was 25 and realized that 55 MPH meant that you could actually drive 55 miles in an hour. Before that I thought it was just a speed - I didn't get that it was actually telling me how far I could go if I drove that speed.....probably my worst duh moment ever!
Thanks for the laugh honey - hope to hug you tonight at group!
Love Tracy
