This week

Mark had a great post this week about the complexities of life and living in the grey areas.
This week I've been overly frustrated - I'll blame part of it on a large dose of insomnia and a pinch of PMS. I'm frustrated with my job. I'm frustrated because everything is status quo, and I hate that. There's no excitement about going that extra mile. And I find myself slipping into mediocrity.
And, yes, trust me ... the question of should I even be a Rx-ist has crossed my mind a million times lately.
So, why did I mention Mark's post. Because I struggle with longing for contentment and simplicity. I want everything to come together like a well oiled machine. And all the while I'm not quite sure if it's ever going to be possible.

On a new note, apparently there was snow in downtown Wpg on this week. This morning I wore a touque, scarf and mittens ... it was a balmy +2 degrees outside for my walk to work.

I saw The King and I at Rainbow Stage (an outdoor covered theatre) ... not bad, but rather cold and windy and the first half was a little slow. (Not to mention the distracting 'shiny diaper pants' on the king ... you had to be there.)

i thought of sending an e-card-but wasn't sure if they have one that says sorry that you are slipping into mediocrity or not. hmm... i'm prayin' for you though.

Please don't think you need to settle for mediocrity and monotony. Life sucks sometimes, and that's even without any inherent "problems". Sometimes the lack of excitement is a problem in itself. Push for the good, take the bad and mundane in stride, but push for the good.
