Summertime is Worktime

My Ride

I have a list of things to do, and a list of things that need to be done, and then the real list of things that must be done. And always the balancing act of finding joy in what I do, so I can actually do it. Pain is reduced by producing seratonins in the brain, and well, ” good vibes” make seratonin.

Here are some of my favorite seratonin producers for this summer. Hard physical work in my garden is just plain good, board meetings for the Woman’s Club are fun because I like these people. Inventory is interesting because I am a history junkie and we have a few surprises in our clubhouse closets. Clubhouse vintage fashion inventory is fabulous for me with a BS in textile science, oh yeah, lots of fun. Of course, I love my new bike. I now have it all rigged out with cane holder, covered plastic gear tub, flashing lights and a bugle horn. No more guilt about driving my car two blocks to work at the clubhouse, I ride my bike!

On the down side: painting the men’s room at the clubhouse; working up enthusiasm is challenging so it has to be a party. There is so much more on the gotta but don’t wanna list, but I have depleted my seratonin levels just thinking about it.
