Shocked Life in slow motion

Its a holiday weekend. We have come back to the old town, to be around the sick FIL, and are meeting up with loads of old friends, and family. its great to see everyone, but...

I am seeing that since being dxd, I am in slow motion next to everyone else. I have spent my whole life being a doer, and a very capable busy person. I used to put so many of my friends to shame with how many errands, tasks, and jobs I could get done. If you want something done, give it to a busy person to do. That was me! The kids were raised, the house was clean, school was all As ontop of 2 jobs, and so on. zoooom!

The weekend is starting to show me that I have dramatically slowed down. I see my friends zip, zooming around, and managing 6 things at once, and me? Im sitting on the side lines scratching my head.

When did I down shift? When did I get this comfortable being in the slow lane? There is NO way I could manage 10% of what I used to do. I live a great life, and have many blessings, but this weekend is gonna be a mind blower for me. Even my lazy friends are whipping circles around me.

Very interesting to see how far things have gone. I guess I am a watcher now, and not a doer. go figure.
