Lynn Toler Instagram – Son5 of 6 is the family historian and a man with a memory at which I marvel. He’s in 7th heaven digitizing old stuff. I was minding my own business when Fox called and asked if I wanted to try TV. I asked everyone how they decided to call me and no one really said. People pass the buck a lot out there. I think whoever found me didn’t want to admit it was them until they knew if I would work out. Anyhow I had forgotten all about it. But this was probably what they saw. Things to note: 1. My #hair was crazy, no? That one angle really highlighted my lack of scissor skills. 2. I got my black belt because I was taking son 5 of 6 for lessons. He wasn’t feeling it but I was. So me and a couple of other mothers who watched their kids started taking classes. It took years. Unfortunately, at this juncture, I couldn’t fight my way out of a paper bag with a machete. 3. The news commentator’s closing statement, which I thought was goofy and silly in the moment, came true. And to think, BigE and I thought it was hilarious at the time. I swear I’m an accidental overachiever. #momlife #family Use your peripheral vision! Mine has saved me more times than I can count. Don’t just stare straight ahead at what you think you want. Look around at every stop to make sure you you don’t miss something better you didn’t know was out there. Rule, 43 people. It makes life and its inherent messiness more enjoyable. By the way I am not dodging accountability. I both #crocheted and painted yesterday. I did neither well but I did them for a while. Doing so made me feel like a normal person until FedEx showed up with the second solar powered generator I bought. I am into process and procedure. When I don’t feel safe I buy infrastructure. The arrival reminded I’m not well yet (or, as is more likely the case, I was never quite well) but I have learned to generate positive results even when mildly hysterical. Y’all have a good day. Stay on #swivel you might be surprised at what you see.
