RDP THURSDAY – SLIPPERY
Life is a slippery slope, or at least it is for me. The last time I tried to climb a slope, it was so slippery, my shoes stayed in the mud and my butt stayed on the grass. Very slippery. And sloping.
Clearly, I should not try climbing slippery slopes, but it was so lovely down there, in the mud by the river.
A personal slippery slope
People use the term “it’s a slippery slope” when they are warning you that something you are doing is likely to get you into trouble, generally trouble from which you have previously extracted yourself.
I’m now at a point where I’ve slid down all the slopes. Everything is slippery and it’s nothing but slopes. So I’ll plod along and try to keep my shoes out of the river and the muck.

I should get them for the bathroom so I could give up fighting the mold on the bottom of the shower mat thingie.

I think that could work, Marilyn.

Garry seemed to think it might be a good idea. Because it seems that there is no bathtub mat that won’t be moldy — no matter what I do — after 2 months. It’s getting expensive.

I remember sitting at the bottom of the hill figuring “Okay, I’ll just sit here. Eventually, Garry will show up and we’ll work it out. ” And that is exactly what happened.

As long as you weren’t injured.

Nah. I just forcibly sat. And decided it was a good idea to just stay there until something else happened.

Wise move, Marilyn, stay out of the mud.

My mother told me long ago. “Stay out of the mud,” she said. Why didn’t I listen?

The problem was that I had walked myself into a very muddy area with a tall hill up from the river. I could not easily go back … I was too glued to the mud AND I couldn’t get up the hill. It was a 71-year-old kind of problem.
