The Fragile Schedule – one little episode can tip it over.
As I watched the two kayaks enter the water with the two boys in them I was fascinated.  It didn’t take much as the little craft slid through the water… to make a mistake.  One small adjustment at the wrong time and the craft would turn over.

Of course that was likely the plan… dunk your buddy and yourself on a hot day.

We were enjoying the beach side of the park… beautiful breeze, people walking dogs and then the two kayak paddlers.

As the canoeist came by as well… with a small wave from a power boat, the craft could be swamped as well. Making one mistake or rapid change in the schedule of the small craft – could be followed by a big splash and nasty turnover.

The day before for us… as I reported… changed abruptly when the call came to us about our granddaughter falling from a tree… and the four broken bones as a result.  The bones are not very big but the whole summer was radically changed as well.

Emma’s soccer team will play with one less person. They were doing fairly well and Emma was doing super. But a broken foot will not allow anymore soccer until maybe September or later.

Yesterday I sat to compose the Blog for the day… crash, boom, bah… the thunder followed the brilliant flashes of lightening.

Guess what?  The internet connections is highly reliant upon electrical current and a good balance in the connections. BUT Lightening will easily knock out the connection – and time is not there any longer.

As I thought about it and the changes that have come my way so quickly… my life changed rapidly with these outside influences… in a hear beat.  The finely balanced, day by day, routine was quickly dismantled with one call – or crash of lightening.

I have been thinking that I need to make adjustments to my life stream… and bingo it happened!

There comes a time when we all need to re-check what we are doing. Perhaps there are some things that we simply do not need to do any longer. And one quick call or a storm can change it all.

I started tossing out some more junk as a result.  When you cannot blog – you can clean.

Hmmm. What will happen tomorrow?
