The Right Choice!

I don't like disruptions in my routine.
My schedule helps to keep me organized and focused.
Sunday through Friday,I drive the bus.On those days everything else I do is fit in around my runs.
I keep my to do list short enough to ensure that everything gets addressed (if not always accomplished).
Today,there are no bus runs. 
The Center is holding its annual Spring Boutique which utilizes the entire building.
This has afforded me some extra time which quite frankly I am not sure what to do with. 
I did not plan this out very well.
It's not that I can't find some stuff to occupy my time. Trust me there is always stuff.
I am more concerned with filling my day with something useful and productive. 
My fear is that at the end of the day I will have squandered an opportunity to accomplish something relevant or important.
Last week the NFL held its annual draft. For weeks, the writers in the newspapers and the pundits and talk show hosts on t.v. and radio pontificated on which teams should pick which player. They analyzed team needs, past draft histories,failures and busts.
They evaluated each and every possible entrant available in the field.
They went at this for weeks. 
After it was all said and done and it came down to draft day, each team made their picks. I later heard an interview with one NFL executive who wrapped all of this nonsense up in a nutshell.
He said "when it came our time to pick, it was not about needs at a position , the future of the franchise, or anything else.It was and always will be about what choice will make us better now."
Which is exactly where I find myself in this moment. 
I have been gifted with a few precious free hours. 
I can't fret about squandering them.
That's a waste of time. I will find something that will help make my life better, and just do it.
That can mean just about anything.
Anything that is except worrying about making the "right" choice!
