A Simple Message


In today’s crazy situation Rudy reminds me to return to simple life, to return home. He sings a happy tune as he arrives at his home base for recharging and refreshing (an empty dust bin).

I often interrupt his planned schedule. Rudy always returns to the sanctity of his home.

Rudy says: Use this time in life to recharge and refresh.

I say: Be safe.

Props to Rudy and the Troops

Molly giving Rudy respect Rudy's appointed time arrived and he entered the living area.  All three dogs rose from napping position and left the room.  My initial thought was they feared Rudy, the robot vacuum. Yet,  as wise old Makena walked past hardworking Rudy I sensed an acknowledgment of thanks.  She's a stubborn, feisty badger.  Fearless in the face of superior forces. She's not afraid of Rudy. She's not even annoyed when he vacuums her safe spot under the bed. The wise one knows Rudy is a vital member of this community. His service keeps the household dust and hair population to a manageable amount. Makena's "props" to Rudy reminded me of all those Essential Troopers who are keeping my life safe and secure.  I wouldn't survive the COVID 19 Quarantine without the sacrificial service of so many.  THANK YOU to all the Essentials who provide for our community.

Three lessons I learned from the over-sized dust bunny seem fitting advice for today's  life challenges.  (I'm already in Day 11 of my "retreat", as I call the stay at home order.) Be thorough. Move the obstacles to reveal the situation. I blocked Rudy's path.  Rudy's not to blame.  Blame really doesn't minister to the current situations.  History will provide the look back fault finding or maybe not. I'm still looking for the unknown child who spread measles to me as a 25 year old on Christmas vacation.over 40 years ago. Be consistent.  Keep the planned schedule for success. I was guilty o...
