This week marks the return to routine; no more big holidays for a long stretch now.
My first thought was one of gloom, but the more I ponder it, the more attractive routine becomes. Routine, as in life on an even keel, without serious health concerns, without fears of the big unknowns, without big stresses. We've given routine a bad rap when maybe we should embrace it.
How nice in this 2009 of economic uncertainty to return to the routine of 2007 or even early 2008. Did we appreciate the solid comfort of routine back then? Get up, work a full week, pay the bills and take care of the family, enjoy a little down time on weekends. How routine! How predictable! How wonderful?
Here's to a return to routine: may many more of us celebrate it this year!
