~Brain and Blood Drained...Needing Super Charge~

Have you ever had a brain bubble moment? I have had too many of them today! I started my day getting my son ready for school...then I was off for routine blood work. The registration took longer than usual. Maybe it was partly my fault as I can tend to have the gift of gab. 

I handed the lady my paperwork back in the waiting area for the blood work. I didn't have a long wait. As I sat in the chair preparing for the "draw" there were two lab workers there. The first was getting my info (making sure I knew how to spell my last name and when my birthday was). Then she said, "wow girl! we're taking a lot of your blood today!" The other lab lady gabbed with me as I have known her for years! They were both talking to me and asking me questions at the same time. Obviously my two ears heard two conversations but my one mouth could only respond to one. I laughed and told my lab lady whom I knew that I had no idea what either was asking me. They both laughed as she poked my right arm for her blood out take. It didn't take long and then I had to go "deposit" more of my bodily fluids in a little cup. Oh the joys of annual physical preparation. Next week at the doctor's I will probably find out that my family history is clinging to me and my cholesterol is poo! But that is next week!

On with my travels...I went to the drug store to pick up a few items. Everyone is gabby! The cashier was chatty but my brain had decided to begin to crash. My next stop was the bank. I had some money I wanted to withdraw...$270. I approached the teller with my withdrawal slip. I know the teller so we began to gab. She asked how I would like my money. I told her matter of factly, five 5's and a 20. She started getting the money and looked at me. "How would you like that back?" I repeated what I said. She looked puzzled. I said, "did I say five 5's?" and laughed. I said, " I was imagining you giving me five 50's". We both laughed and she handed me the correct amount.

I turned around to leave and saw a friend I hadn't seen in ages. Well, my brain was already mush and I had lost all of that blood, so what did I do?I greeted him in a very happy friendly manner, calling him by his son's name! I quickly corrected myself. He grinned and said, "that's all right". Well for my "cover" I told him of a friend we both knew whom I always wanted to call him a name that I thought fit him but wasn't his name. He laughed and made a little small talk.

My brain...yes it is healed from brain surgery and chemo poison, I was just having "one of THOSE days!" Some days are like that! I am sure you can relate. 

Some days you just have to laugh at yourself! The kicker? I want to start my days earlier to have more time! Perhaps if I begin earlier, I can jump start with my Super Irish Breakfast tea and boost my brain. I want to start absorbing earlier. No, I am not talking tea here. I want to begin absorbing in my reading and in my Jesus time...I crave my Inspirational times.

So, in my thinking, with my brain that is becoming more like a sponge and absorbing what I read, I will be able to be alert alone in my Inspirational time. Everything will be quiet. In reading the inspirational, my brain will be charged!I would LIKE to say it will be SUPER charged but that remains to be observed. For now, I will accept...charged.
