Day 4690: Lessons learned

Lessons learned by me include:

  • There are no “shoulds” about feelings,
  • It’s never (or rarely) what you expect,
  • I tend to catastrophizing (yesterday I was certain Joan the cat had gotten out and had been eaten by a coyote),
  • It’s okay to promote yourself (e.g., my linking to my song “Catastrophizing” in the previous bullet point),
  • Changes (like resetting the clocks and the Epic medical record system I have to use at work) can cause disruption and frustration,
  • I can survive my own and other people’s mistakes, and
  • I can start sharing pictures on this blog with a minimum of introductory text.

Do you see any lessons learned in my images for today?

On Use Your Common Sense Day, I am going to use my common sense to vote and to look up “lessons learned” on YouTube:

Thanks to all who have helped me with lessons learned, including YOU!

… and this:

They say that good things come to those who wait. I guess I’ll have to wait a little bit longer for the USA to do a good thing and elect its first woman President.

I can’t wait to thank all those who help me wait, including YOU!

Day 3595: Choices

Every day, there are choices to make.

Too many choices can be overwhelming; too few choices might feel like we’re trapped.

Yesterday, I made the choice to not connect my mental health to the choices that people might make in the USA mid-term elections. I will submit my choices when voting on Tuesday and I can only hope that others have chosen wisely.

Here are some choice quotes about choices:

Do you see choices in my other images for today?

This quote about choices by Stephen Sondheim …

… is from Sunday in the Park with George’s “Move On” and I choose to share this beautiful rendition.

My choices for ending a blog post are many, but I always choose gratitude. Thanks to all who made the choice to connect with me here today, including YOU.
