Epiphany!

Here it is another new year and finally, a much needed epiphany!

13 days before the movers arrive, standing in the shower, reflecting on something a friend posted on her Facebook page that we learned in our post secondary education some 20+ years ago...

The solution to pollution is dilution.

She was referring to airing out her house in these Springlike winter days...but as always, my mind took it to a much deeper level.

The solution to pollution is dilution.

In the chaos of coordinating the move and all of the incidentals associated with such, I reflected on all that is "polluted" in my life.

The polluted bedroom...DH swoops in for the weekend and brings home some pathogenic gastro thing...solution...dilute with fresh air!

The polluted body...filled with all sorts of artificial everything's leftover from the holidays...solution...dilute with H2O and only fresh, unprocessed foods!

The polluted mind...Cricket is a hormonal tween roller coaster...Bubba is a 4 year old avalanche...the Spug needs 24/7 love...DH is still in corporate apartment 585 miles away...etc...etc...(wasn't there supposed to be some me time somewhere?!?!?!)...solution...dilute grey matter several times a day with my favorite happy song...Poker Face...IPod on kitchen counter 24/7 for when the emergent need arises!

The solution to pollution is dilution.

Day 2 "Operation Dilution" is going swimmingly...something like 27 more before it becomes a habit...

Stay tuned~
