Well, I have collies, who, even after years of rides in the car, STILL lose their footing when we go around a curve. And I'm afraid I'm the same way. Having recently moved (again), I have lost my footing (again) as we settle into a new city, find new doctors, new vets, new favorite restaurants, and figure which exit to take off the freeway. Our daily routine is different and a little stressful right now. And the chaos caused by a house full of boxes doesn't help my ADD.
So I love your metaphor. Perhaps I need to spend a little time each evening figuring out what curves I might come up against during the next day, and plan for them so as not to be thrown off if they come to pass. I will ask myself WWSD? -- What would Simone do? -- and at the very least, it will make me smile.
