I keep my Facebook accounts open as background to my daily
work. For me, that’s a mental
health necessity. I’m literally tied to my computer most days any way. Without
FB in the background, I can go all day without any type of social interaction,
which makes me C-R-A-Z-Y … or at least crazier than normal.
Even super busy, my mind works a million miles a minute so
little nuggets seep into my head from ye old social networking site even when
I’m not paying attention as I pound out 5 or 6 or 7 press releases and articles
a day.
Recently, the following gem from among the comments on a
friend’s post stuck in my head:
“The prevalence of flu and illness is all the more reason
everyone should make rest and self-care a priority.”
That ditty has now combined with another gem that caught me
eye recently:
“It’s January ‘x’ (insert a date). Take down your Christmas
decorations, people.”
I know. Those
things don’t seem to have much in common.
How on earth do I make a connection?
Simple ….
WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE?
Am I the only person who marvels at the time others seems to have? Time to post routinely on FB, more than
a super quick “like”? Time to exercise, eat right, drink plenty of water and
rest? Shoot, I don’t even remember
the last time that 6 hours wasn’t the very maximum amount of time I had for
sleep. That’s as well-rested as I
can get. And, usually, I’m not even that well rested.
And Christmas decorations? It’s January NOT July. Seriously, if you’ve got time on your hands to worry about
someone else’s holiday decorations, please, come on over. You can deal with my piles of holiday
ornaments, fripperies and frills waiting to be boxed and put away. Me … I have to work and then run kids
and then care for show horses. Not
to mention writing a blog nearly daily so that maybe, just maybe, I can keep
one of my new year’s resolutions for 2013.
Am guessing I’ll fail. Maybe I should have made my
resolution not to worry about when others take down their holiday decorations.
That one, I could keep!
