Our Lady of Intentional Chaos

Written 9/22/10

Ok... This is the most "active" person on our tiny street.  She is in a constant state of activity - often compounded by scheduling multiple tasks or social appointments at the same time. The resulting level of chaos has reach a crescendo and now I must assign her a name that epitomizes her impression on the world and all the people around her!

She is fun and has many friends and loyal fans.  She is a woman of constant action and constant overlapping and concurrent activity.  She shuffles lots of people and activities within a very full social and business calendar.  She is excellent at getting a lot done in a short period of time, while making the whole situation seem effortless.  She is surrounded by workmen and others helping her get things done, but mostly this talent is all hers due to her unusual energy and motivation to accomplish notable things for herself and others.

Altogether she is part drama queen, part actress, part superb hostess, control freak, party animal, compassionate friend, wild woman, beauty queen, cheerleader, and super saleswoman.  No dust settles here.  Her obsession with having a constant fray of activity results in nary a moment to rest.  So, what has she achieved?  Intentional chaos that is derived from over-booking people, activities, events and situations where invariably the coordination becomes impossible and the wheels come off the bus on a regular basis.. and...provides everyone in her universe a daily dose of crisis and a constant flow of urgency in one area or another.  Every day....

I've decided to call her "Our Lady Of Intentional Chaos".  This is her life - an ours - if we know her!

She really does deserve another sub-title but I could not come up with another one!
