Its`s 3pm. I can`t believe its already 3pm. Two months ago I would have taught 6 subjects, 7 hours of school, the students would have come and gone by now. It`s 3pm. What did I do today?
Finally got up at 9:30am (due to many restless nights of sleep). Took care of the dogs, ate breakfast and showered. Got on the phone around 10:30 and spent 2 HOURS talking to insurance agents trying to switch from Allstate to Progressive. 2 HOURS!!!! After getting hung up by Allstate at 12:30 I decided to make myself a nice cup of coffee and defrag from the insanity! 1-2pm I did dishes and baked two loaves of bread for the week. 2-3pm I picked up around the house, fed the dogs and began cleaning the gutters(after about 15 minutes I realized how afraid of heights I am and decided to leave it for the man of the house) Now its 3pm. I haven`t eaten lunch and in an hour and a half I will be heading to work.
I have to ask myself, what is the purpose in the mundane? Its difficult to find purpose and meaning in days like today. I didn`t touch any lives (unless you consider feeding grateful dogs a twisted idea of blessing someone), I didn`t accomplish any task of significance.
How does one find the adventure and meaning in the mundane daily tasks?
