What an interesting morning. I went about my business as usual noticing that I was able to drink two cups of coffee. That's interesting because I have mentioned previously that mornings are hard and I usually don't get through one cup because I feel an urge to smoke. But, alas, not this morning. It may not happen tomorrow or it may, but I'm in the day. Then I was getting ready for work. I didn't feel right. I have spells of fatigue that come once in a while. It's a dangerous fatigue as I could be driving and want to close my eyes (it's not narcolepsy...been tested) I have to fight like crazy to keep them open. After I got dressed I felt this fatigue and decided to reschedule my clients. It was quiet in my house as everyone was gone for the day. So, I took a nap. It felt great. Now to the success (although I consider the morning coffee a success also). I got up from a one hour nap and remembered that I did not get sandwich meat for the family when I went shopping yesterday, so I got in my car (and yes my eyes were open) and drove to the grocery store. As I was leaving I looked at some lottery machines. I rarely get the scratch offs, but decided to get two $1.00 tickets. Hey, I won. Not money, but a Take 5 for free. Wait for it.....I then was thinking about how I was going to get the ticket. Well, I drove right to 7/11 and handed my scratch off in and got my numbers. That's it! For those of you remember my previous interrupted journey earlier this year, I was very scared of passing a 7/11 or getting gas. But the success that came from my failure was that I can and will go about my business and not be scared because I can do it. I really didn't think twice. I was passing this 7/11 anyway and I just remembered I have a choice in this matter. My choice was to get my Take 5 ticket. And that's all there is to that.
