It was at the mention of a turkey that my ears perked up. Turkey ? Oh yes,
turkey.
You see we were sitting around eating breakfast (those of us who had
done the one loop around the cemetery) and someone mentioned that they had to
put a turkey in the oven shortly because of an upcoming gathering at her home.
Why my ears perked up at that time I really do not know. The
conversation regarding the various types of bustling involved in this
particular season flowed from most people during the walk.
Maybe my ears did not perk up on the walk regarding the various types of
bustling because my focus was on whether or not to wear my rain gear. Taking it
off and on annoyed me.
Maybe it had to do with my focus on the 8 am group joining the 8:30
group and my happiness at seeing all 14 of us walking together. Later another
person joined us for the walk and another person at the restaurant. Maybe all
of this distracted me.
For whatever reason the statement about the turkey (obviously it had to
be food) did it. So here is my two cents worth. Get out and walk during this
bustling season. Do not end up, after this bustling period is over, with the
possibility of being .....
B - bitter,
U - upset,
S - stressed,
T - tired,
L - lethargic,
I - ill,
N - noddy, and
G - grieving (1 pound, 2
pound etc.).
