It’s May 7th, 2024; Here’s an original country duet song about a couple working together to help each other. And that’s exactly how Richard and I got through our 4-day moving adventure. Even if he simply held my iPhone before an interchange! Ha! We work well together. And together we made it to New England from Florida. Woo-freaking-hoo! So, here’s a song to celebrate that offers a charming production mix (including a lot of lively keyboard playing) by Steven Cooper, Nashville, TN. 

You help me do it better

Here’s the one-hundred-twenty-eighth new music post for 2024, as I consistently offer everyone a unique song each day this year for your listening pleasure (and help us get our songs heard). I am always amused by how Richard keeps me laughing even when I get triggered or stressed, even if he agrees with my fantasy of choking someone. Okay, yes, only in our thoughts. My hubby helps me do better.

The Yin and Yang of it

I know it’s always up to me to mind my energy.  As in managing my thoughts, triggers, emotions, etc.

The woman at the cable company had no idea what day I’d had (and the day prior as well–nor should she) to my arrival to drop off our internet router–though my driving a 16′ moving truck and full body sweat could have given her a clue, no one really ‘gets that’ unless they’ve gone through it. I was in NO MOOD for her uppity tone or demand for me to move the truck though she knew (because she said so) we were only there to return equipment which would take less than 5 minutes. And to my point, the parking lot was nearly empty! Again, not her problem. I believe you should FIRST take care of the person in front of you before worrying about whoever may come in later. I was there first, and I should have been able to park wherever I wanted! (Is that my ego?)

I’m still a bit peeved about the whole experience, but believe me, the Universe showed me real F’n fast that I was the one attracting trouble upon myself (I felt handicapped and hurt already from loading the truck for two days at that point) but I chose to pull that big truck into the lot crossing over two handicap parking spaces when I could have just as easily pulled in on the other side of the lot. I did see someone with a different kind of trailer on the other side, so I guess I wanted to avoid him–but I don’t know. I guess I wasn’t thinking (I know my brain isn’t processing as fast as it used to–I’m old!

So, MY error, brought her sailing out of the cable office within 30 seconds of my pulling across those two spaces, scaring Richard and me when she popped by his door window to ask me to move the truck, at which time I hopped out with router box in hand (thinking, “I only have this one small thing to return), but before I could say anything she was at my door telling me to move even if I was only returning equipment. I uttered, “I’m on my last nerve.” And I was. I didn’t want to practice backing that truck up at that moment. But I was still pleasant about it. I didn’t call her any names, throw up a finger, or whatever. It all happened so quickly. I don’t think I thought that far–again, I wasn’t processing the situation that fast. I was just hot, sweaty, hurting already, and still getting used to driving the big truck loaded with all our belongings. I tapped the gas (I didn’t think I floored it), and the truck took off faster than I’d expected, sending a stack of tall boxes flying and some odds and ends (we could hear it).

I got my real fast ‘yin and yang’ type of answer from the Universe though! Expend my energy–receive a pushback! That was the sign I needed to regain my composure before I hurt myself or someone else or break our stuff.

I pulled ahead to the stop sign and checked my GPS (to turn the volume down I think), and while sitting at the stop two e-bikes went down the sidewalk within inches of the front of the truck and I didn’t even see them. Richard warned me and said I should wait a minute or two before easing my foot off the gas to proceed. They scared him taking a chance like that. I’m famous for easing out into the road and have now learned that lesson too, though I do not expect to do much of any driving from now on–(we returned the rental truck this morning). I then got out into the middle ‘suicide’ lane and made a left turn to reenter the cable company parking lot to park in a more appropriate space. God knows if I’d said any more to her or threw the router out the window or one of any of a hundred other possible responses, she’d have called the law on me and that would have ended our moving trip right then and there. So, after centering my energy for a moment, I hobbled into the office while holding my back. If anyone had questioned me I was going to say, “I’m handicapped”! I didn’t speak to the ‘manager’ or whoever she was, though she walked by with her nose in the air, when I went into the office and the young gal who helped me was very kind. I didn’t care that she thought she was right. I don’t always need to be right. I just needed to return the router and get on the road. Thankfully, and as I’d expected, it only took two or three minutes for her to update my address and give me credit for returning the router. Jesus. We weren’t even out of Ocala yet and I was frazzled.

My emotions fluctuate

The older I get, the less I know sometimes (I think). And as spiritual as I think I am, and though I aim to teach Awareness, I still lose my shit too! I am just thankful Omniscience God got us to our new home in one piece! And none of our stuff broke either! Yes, a few boxes had toppled over, but in the big scheme of things that was nothing.

As I wrote yesterday, apparently I still have a long way to go in my personal growth and development. Yet, why do I care anyway? I mean, I know nobody’s perfect. But I’d like to live a nice long life without hurting anyone. I seek calm. I seek peace. Maybe I can use this story in my standup routine in the future. The haughty arrogant cable office woman. I don’t know. I’ve written up the first couple minutes of a 5-minute standup routine and would like to present it at an open mic night sometimes, but we’ll see. Maybe my ego needs some more humility.

As I wrote in 2020 in this blog, “…sharing her own truth, by speaking freely about her personal struggles and the challenges she continues to overcome.” So, I think that when we are stressed to the max, the next slightest thing can set us off. That’s how bad things happen.

Enjoy (IN Joy) everything and love! Be Everything All the Time.

May we all soar in ’24! Here’s to believing Omniscience has our back, and living FREE!

Yours in expanding, centering, spiraling consciousness,

Sheila “Spiral Sister” Murrey
