Wow Nicholas that was quite awesome. Whelmed being, I guess, a nautical term? actually would make sense - it has a nautical sound to it- just never thought about it before. "My life is flowing normally" or "I am appropriately whelmed." I thought underwhelmed was not used enough as it is - although I've heard it as to mean "unimpressed". But "whelmed" definitely should start making an appearance on the scene again. Thank you Nicholas for the description and explanation - always instantly graspable - and thank you Cindy Nolan for bringing it up! I love things I don't know - it means there's something I have yet to learn. I didn't know whelmed and now I do :-D "
