Sometimes life’s challenges get me down and sometimes life’s challenges get tossed into my big pot of wisdom soup!!! Whatever lesson I am supposed to be learning today, I’m going to trust it’s a good one ’cause right now at 6:00 a.m. I’m just ready to scream!!! I slept horribly the night before and finally snoozed off only to be woken for the fifth time by my PIMP’s alarm clock.
Then it’s PIMP wanting some early morning delight and after that the bathroom light goes on, progressing to PIMP in the kitchen putting some dishes away. And for the next twenty-five minutes it’s PIMP getting dressed, PIMP in the laundry room, PIMP in the living room, PIMP in the bedroom again, PIMP taking the dogs out potty, PIMP giving me my tenth hug good bye, PIMP telling me he loves me, PIMP can’t find his keys, PIMP saying goodbye AGAIN, PIMP telling me that he thinks I should sleep in because after all it’s my day off and its only 6:45a.m.
He loudly closes the door and drives off to work. I rarely ever have the time to sleep in, so I decided to do just that! Snuggling deeper into my bed with gabber and blankets cocooning me, I closed my eyes and waited for that early morning sleep to take over. After the first five minutes of really trying and sleep was still NOT embracing me, I knew there were too darn many disturbances this morning stimulating, in place of sedating, my brain cells into overdrive. This left me with no other choice than to throw off all the cozy covers, slip my feet into my pink fuzzy slippers, and make my way to the kitchen to heat up a hot kettle for tea. My long awaited days of sleeping in were but a dream for me in this lifetime and it’s simply a big waste of time, energy, and effort to keep trying to make that happen on my days off!
And in this KlackyLee moment, I realized as my tea kettle protested with hot rage from the stove top, this morning’s circumstances were completely out of my control. However, it certainly didn’t mean the rest of my Monday needed to continue in the same downward direction! I made a conscious effort to set aside the stress and open myself up to receiving only peaceful energy, and as I spread the last of the cream cheese on my onion bagel and poured myself a hot cup of tea, the only other thing that could add to my good energy was grabbing a handful of those dark chocolate almonds staring at me from the candy dish!

Sounds like you just have a PIMP that loves Ya! How many people can get there PIMPS attention.. And you may not have not been able to get back to sleep in the morning (specially since it was your day off) but you got up made the best of it and to boot had the dark chocolate along with your tea and beagle… I miss the days we would have our tea and cookies or cake and you would dunk them to long in you tea and the cookie would PLOP right in the bottom of your tea cup, and goodness don’t forget that you would fill your teacup so full to the brim you would spill half of it just getting to the couch teetering on your high heals and giggling in the process.. Life’s challenges can get anyone down every once in a while, it what we do with them or how we choose to handle them, be grateful for the crazy mornings!
