Mint Tea, Limoncello and a Flat Tire!

"When life hands you lemons, make Limoncello" is the mantra of the week!  As a Health Coach I would never recommend winding down a series of stressful, unplanned incidents with alcohol, but as a human being?  I confess; perfect might not be my identity.

My identity, in fact, is very much in question these days.  A Blog here, a Website there, and an Appointment Scheduler somewhere else.  I employ a fifth site to send my newsletter, with Facebook as my fourth platform.  Is M.ulti-O.nline-P.ersonality-D.isorder a thing?  (Does Limoncello help reduce that tendency as well?)

So, as you can tell, I am teetering atop a presuppose; to professionally jump both feet into a hosting sight with WordPress credentials or keep my professional identity spread peanut butter thin.  This, of course, looks like an easy answer, just as JIF looks much like its Real Nutty neighbor on the Farm Fresh shelves.  But, I assure you, making this decision to streamline and get all my cats in one house for some reason feels a lot like 'starting over.'

This last week, as I was sitting on the side of a very busy road waiting for assistance with a Flat Tire, I metaphorically examined the choices before me.  I have and am still capable of changing a flat tire, but, because we pay for insurance that covers such an animal, I called Road-Side-Assistance for just that.  Could I have utilized the elbow grease for free?  Sure- but it would have taken me many minutes longer than the Guy with the bigger tools.  And the following day, as I hauled the flat into Honda on a donut I thought, "my insurance better cover this."  There again, my own efforts and dollars could have been utilized, but some directives, a shuttle van and a phone call was much, much easier.

Now, to bring this to a healthy summit, Limoncello and a flat tire are much like real food and vitamins.  Both offer ingredients made to change, they have absolutely nothing to do with MOPD, and neither are a cure for confusion and indecisiveness.  They do, however, both require hand washing, which in my book, is a very healthy thing.  And, when both fail to perform, mint tea makes it all better.

You know what to do~
