My body and brain didn't yell at me for once
Last week, I woke up as usual, had coffee, walked the dogs and got ready for work. My car had other plans so I ended up having to get a repair done. First they had to do the diagnosis and I planned to wait around for that part. That took about 30 minutes. Then they said it would only take a few hours to fix so I decided to hang out and work on email.
Old me would have been worried about what I was going to snack on and what I was going to have for lunch. Old me would have located a restaurant within walking distance. Old me would have put a granola bar in my purse. Old me would have seen the free snacks and drinks and thought what the heck may as well have a few.
New me worked on email and scrolled the internet. New me had a free cup of coffee. New me was shocked when the car was ready and four hours had passed and lunch had come and gone. Old me would have had her brain screaming at her to stop and pick up something quick for lunch. Old me would have been shaky and starving.
New me went home and ate lunch and went to work.
Am I "normal" now? (answer is no but I do wonder if this is how other people get through life).
