Going South

We had super low key Sunday on fully rest mode to be well-prepared for an important Monday, which was exam recording.

That was the plan. The first part checked, but not the second phrase.

Canceled one last afternoon rehearsal for another plan.

At this time, the rehearsal is more about setting the mood and strengthening the mental issue. When to rehearse matters. Felt slightly uneasy skipping it, but found no other ‘right’ time for that.

Cancelling rehearsal was one thing, unsually late bed time hour was another.

Movie night was on the plan. It started quite late wasn’t. Little girl insisted to do the movie in one sitting despite knowing she would have an early compulsory Monday morning class. Refused to cancel an essential thing for something optional. Chose to finish the movie came with the consequences.

In the middle of the movie, a text came to notify canceled recording session due to school closure.

Delaying the exam for few days is not actually a good thing for peace of mind, but there’s nothing we could do.

This morning, another text came. Early morning class postponed because the teacher was unwell.

Starting Monday without this class was actually not preferable, but we didn’t have power to keep it as planned.

Relaxed Sunday was on the plan.

Low key Monday wasn’t.

Once again, the invisible hand played its part.

Taking care (or taking over) little things beyond our control.

When plans are going south, keep calm and try hard to fix the mood.

Adding some pages from my early morning reading which totally resonated with what happened.
