you can't find happiness, You Have To Make IT!

 yesterday I was miserable, sprang my back.  Couldn't find a bluebird in the sky though our rain spat had stopped.

About to crash, I leaned into failure and texted my boss whom cleared my schedule for this week.  Thank God I did, manual labor can make it much worse.

I was barely able to walk, uncomfortable to get up, and throbbed a little bit, reminds me to take a pill to reduce inflammation.

I stayed home did minor chores like dishes, and then I'd get tired.  But, I've learned to rest and not quit, because I'm just an inch away from millions.  So, I was able to watch 3 episodes of art history on Wondrium, 2 loads of dishes, and two loads of laundry cleaned, folded, and stowed.

It all started when I leaned down and grabbed a board with nails.  Day turned out good, great, and rather-than what could have had been had I NOT Leaned Into Failure"tm"

I learned this years ago, there's a ten-dollar word for it- mitigation and remediation, M.R. 'E' "Leaning into failure" only 9.95 Operators are standing by!

I used to ride my bike a lot in my twenties, and it was dark night in the city, so I was riding on the side-walk straight into a bus shelter they have on the iron range because it gets cold and windy.  Had I dodged I would have broke my on the metal, I tried braking and ran SMACK into that plexiglas.  

And it Worked, I suprised, and found myself on the ground but my bike broke it's fork and bounced into the median of four lanes of road.  Limping, I picked it up and carried it home to my roomates, where we replaced the fork instead of my hand!
