I think about unforeseen always and sometimes when it really happens, I am prepared too. Lets see ahead if I am prepared for everything 😊

Not really. It’s hard enough preparing for what I know is going to happen! Just sayin……

I am still defrosting and I don’t feel stuffed yet. And I could not find my emergency dial a psychic. Besides if there is more unforeseen for this year I am not sure I want to see it. I am still having trouble dealing with the stuff I have seen this year. Is there a treat behind this trick Pam ? ! ? ! ?

Surely, it totally depends on the surprise/terror/humorous/violent nature of the happening. When our lads were young and they had the odd accident, luckily, I seemed to go into automatic- pilot, dealt with whatever was necessary, and felt slightly sick afterwards….Fortunately, all three grew up with minimal damage… x

You are right, it all depends on the situation. I find most mothers have an innate ability to act correctly without the need formulate a plan first.

My plan is to be on standby mentally. Expect nothing, hope for the best and adjust accordingly.

Haven’t we been wakening up to that possibility every day this year? Been under the weather and sort of out of it for awhile but hope to get my mojo working again soon! Thanks for your posts. Even though I haven’t been writing, I have been following my friends ( such as you) who faithfully post often.
Thank you,
Irwin

Sounds like a plan my friend. I will get back to my writing – just cannot set a date at the momen as to when that will be. Stay well.

I classify myself as an optimistic realist. I am often disappointed, because I tend to have high expectations. Living in that framework of HOPE i.e., – hoping others will do the right thing, hoping situations will have a good outcome, hoping things go to plan, hoping I don’t let others down gets me nowhere in the end really.
The realist in me, is a counter to the optimist. For the most part I realize not everything is going to go exactly as planned, people are going to come up short in my expectations, I expect people to think of themselves first. I used to think people were essentially good. I now am convinced people are essentially bad.
