flexibility

We still make plans…we just know that they are going to change…whether it is what to have for dinner or where to go for the weekend or what you think you will get done in the day…plan it out, know it will change and just be ok with that. Flexibility is key. The power has gotten much better lately. Which of course just makes it more surprising when the power does go out…as it did when Ute and I actually planned what we would have for dinner. Grilled fish was on the menu—looked up recipes, were in the kitchen getting started when the power went out…and of course it was 6pm but the power hadn’t been going out and so change of plans…coconut curry fish over the gas burner…and it turned out very well-just a little heavier than we had planned for. And since then I don’t think the power has gone out…until this morning that is. (but when working in the hospital there is a generator—it has been fixed for the time being—so you don’t notice quite as much after you’ve had breakfast)
