DISTASTFUL JOBS

DEER CROSSING, Greensboro, NC

I finally tore into a job today like ripping off a bandage!  It’s the most distasteful job that I dislike the most which is editing out accumulated stuff that I have been hoarding for many moons.  And sadly, I have a bonus room that works all too well for that job.  It’s kinda like a job that expands into the time allotted, but this involves space. 

I’ve used a great reason to procrastinate over the years when I tell myself that I will tackle the job once the weather cools down towards winter.  That allows me to only confront myself just once a year for a limited time.  However, I’ll have to admit that it’s also one of the most liberating things we humanoids can accomplish once it’s finished.  So, I dropped off the last castoffs at a local Goodwill and treated myself to a Starbucks Moca and one of my favorite drives to nowhere in particular. 

I was enjoying a pleasant drive in the bright sunshine and as I passed a Deer Caution sign, I immediately switched into my instinctive hunter mode.  And as I rounded a curve, two deer and a woodland creature almost crossed my path and interrupted my Zen mood, but I was able avoid them and continue celebrating my liberation!
