Getting the hang of it all is a full-time job...
How Can Your Forget THAT?
Posted 01-16-2008 at 06:47 PM by Goddess
I've been busy lately. Like REAL busy. My "day job" clients all get restless to fulfill their new year's resolutions to finish jobs--by way of me, naturally. And I've been kinda spacey, 'cause that's how I get during these periods. I noticed it today.
You see, I just had to shower twice. Not because of some untimely spill or nasty twist of fate, or even something grossing me out real bad. I had to shower twice because I forgot to finish my first shower.
Yes. That's right. I FORGOT how to take a freakin' shower!
I got out of shower 1, merrily combing my hair and applying body cream and reailized...hmmmm. I don't remember shaving...hey, wait! I don't remember WASHING.
Yes, my friends. I'm 42 years old and have been showering without adult intervention for many, many years now. But I forgot one of the integral steps. Washing!
When I was finished laughing at myself, I hopped back in, finished my shower, and vowed to take a little time off this evening. Evidently, I'm preoccupied and could use a change of pace.

I sure know what you mean. There are times that a person just "checks out." When I'm really overloaded with distractions, I find that taking a 15-20 minute period of relaxation or meditation or whatever works for you, relieves tensions and mental clutter. I can focus much better and feel very refreshed. Try it out.
An additional note...
A mind is a terrible thing to lose.

You know, that's an excellent suggestion and when I'm in that groove, I do better. I think I'll give that another go and give myself some "Zen Breaks."
On a side note, I told this story to my husband, who didn't seem to think that was unusual at all. "I do stuff like that all the time," he says.Posted 01-16-2008 at 09:01 PM by Goddess -
I've never forgotten to wash, but I have forgotten to rinse the shampoo out of my hair. So, don't feel bad, Dixie. You're not alone.Posted 01-17-2008 at 10:19 AM by QueenMama
