Are you like me?
Do you make plans?
Do you set down roots?
And then life intrudes?
You make a schedule. You plan your hours, your days, your weeks, your months, your year. You know just what you want to do, but then life intrudes.
The hours that you planned to write your blog posts, to read blogs, to take photos are suddenly filled with other things. A sick mother, who needs help. Tiredness from anemia that no one bothered to tell you about. Hands that hurt too badly at times to type on the computer. LIFE!!! and life tends to intrude.
So, you learn to be more flexible. To adjust. Because life will always intrude and it is important to just sit sometimes and appreciate the beauty of the world around you.
beautiful photos, laura. i hope your days become easier.

DeleteI am sorry that you are having to deal with so many intrusions, Laura. Life is never exactly what it is supposed to be, is it? Blessings- I hope you have a good week-xo Diana
ReplyDeleteThanks, Diana. Life is always interesting.
DeleteI'm a planner, too, Laura, so I know what you mean there. And hand pain really takes a toll, as does any chronic issue. Wishing you sunshine this week. Your photos are lovely.
ReplyDeleteThank you. It is so nice to be able to get out and take photos again.
DeleteOh Laura this is my life for sure!!
ReplyDeleteYou and I are definitely going through a lot of the same things, Linda.
DeleteYou are not alone. My favorite saying is when man plans, God laughs.
ReplyDeleteSo true, Debbie.
DeleteLaura, That is so true. We can usually make our plans on another day. I loved your beautiful photos. Hugs to you, Susie
ReplyDeleteI always say tomorrow is another day and so often we just have to regroup.
DeleteSo true! Life has intruded on me all week too. I don't feel like I've had as much time at the computer as I usually do. I hope that things will improve for you so you can catch your breath!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kelly. Going to see the surgeon with Mom tomorrow so hopefully we will get some answers.
DeleteBeautiful photos and yes, life does intrude!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michelle.
DeleteYes! ..happens all the time. Learning how to roll with it:) and find happiness In day to day living is so important.
ReplyDeleteYou are exactly right, Leslie and whatever doesn't get done today will still be there tomorrow.
DeleteI stopped making too many plans are they always get changed... That's life! I hope though that your health plans to improve!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Magali. I hope that my health plans to improve too. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat was the question? Oh yes it was about planning. Laura, if it’s not on my to do list whatever it was just floats off into never land. So yes, I do plan my day, but never further than one day at a time. Spontaneity is a happy place to be. Be well!
ReplyDeleteMy plans can be on my to do list and still float away into Never Land. That is definitely when spontaneity takes over :)
DeleteGreat post Laura, I have learned that life intrudes and there isn't much you can control, that is for sure. Having MS makes you realize that!
ReplyDeleteCynthia
Having lived with my father who had MS, I understand that completely, my sweet friend.
