Let Life Wash Over You

In months gone by I might have been tempted to think that the week just gone had been the week from hell.

I lost my way with my diet, with waking early, with my online presence and a few of my other goals.

My week was hijacked with the school sports days, cooking food for school events, being a taxi for all and sundry, and commitments in the evenings – some expected and some unexpected.

To add to the mix my computer has been acting up lately. It’s been freezing and turning itself off, and then finally on Thursday it stopped working completely, so on Saturday I bought a new computer – something I didn’t want to do with only one wage coming into the house – but It’s true to say that the computer is on the list of essential household appliances.

Anyway, all of that stuff would probably have sent me over the edge a few months ago but this time, I haven’t worried about it.

I enjoyed watching my children at the sports days, I enjoyed spending the time with my family and friends, I enjoyed eating to excess and I enjoyed the extra sleep that I got.

And whilst I could ill afford to fork out for a new computer, having a brand new one that isn’t on a go-slow and doesn’t crash every 20 minutes is an absolute joy.

I can’t do anything about the week that’s just gone and even if I had the chance to go back in time and do it differently, I doubt that I would.

Sometimes it’s nice just to let life wash over you.
