Not everything in this world is as simple as it may seem to be. Sometimes it is very hard to accept the smallest of changes, but somehow we pull through and before we know it, We put that broad smile on and as I said before we know it, it fits into our life as though it were meant to be part of our daily routine all the time.
It's Not As Simple Get up and make the bed, Get ready for work, plan your day, Another load of laundry done, Before you start your full day. You woke up this morning, to be told Turn the button, press a key, Get fresh morning coffee, It's not that simple, you can see. Broke a heel, my hose got a run, My hem just let go,it started to rain, The car it won't start, out of gas, It's one of those days, it's insane. It's not as simple as it may seem to be, I should have stayed in bed for the day, For nothing wants to go right, It feels, I'm just in my own way. Can't slow down, can't be late, Find that smile, now put it on, Rushing just to get out the door, Got to get to where I belong.

Great write sis, sounds like most of my days. There just never seems to be enough hours. Yes life can be hectic, but the answer for that is to learn to slow down and smell the coffee. Mind you I would rather drink it. lol
Love & hugs

Ahhh somtimes it does seem like life or somthing is out to get us Rose but then it only takes one good thing to happen during that day to change it all... an unexpected phone call from a freind, a hug from hubby out of the blue or the kiss of a grandchild...then life is grand again indeed
Hugs

Rose,
As you said the smallest things are easy to accept and add them to our daily calendar; however, it's the ambiguous ones, i.e. "grandiose" change, with which I have the most problems accepting and making changes in my routine. I usually think to myself, "Now, wait just a minute," and then add or discard the ambiguities.
Excellent, expressive write. Have a GREAT ay with those little "changes." :>)
