Sloughing it off.....

It just occurred to me this distracted day that seems to have more stutters than starts, the most important question to ask myself today is... how much do I slough off today. What I pay attention to and what I don't is always greatly affected by duties and mood, but what of intentional sloughing?  When I played bridge in college, our little group had this joke where we would try to fake out other players that we had great cards when we actually had junk by repeating thoughtfully, 'What to slough, what to slough?" .  I'm going to fake myself out today and pretend I'm holding great cards and say to myself, "What to slough?"  Sometimes just getting rid of some junk can increase the odds of taking the tricks later in the game.......
Love,
