So...I had so much fun reading everyone's comments! So, since I have a minute (it's the end of President's Day so some us lucy government employees get the day off, I'm going to type 10 things that come to mind as I type - not my top ten, just (to use one of Andi's words "Random!" :)<BR/><BR/>1) Having "tired Head". Some days I wake up and I know it's gonna be a "tired head" day all day - I'm awake from the neck down, but asleep from the neck up and the only way to make it go away will be to go to bed that night and then the next day is a better day.<BR/><BR/>2) Not being able to eat everything I want because - why? I'm 54, I should just enjoy it - I want a milkshake.<BR/><BR/>3) Having to wear reading glasses after I turned 40. This is something like getting zits after high school - no one tells us this will happen, or if they do, we're not listening. <BR/><BR/>3) Tight security shrink-wrap around everything we buy at the grocery stores - so tight that I have to go find my reading glasses (see item 2) to see where the meandering maze of plastic begins and ends and then stab it open with a steak knife. This is all the result of a lady killing her husband in the 80's by filling his Excedrin gel caps with cyanide, and then somebody putting poisened capsules randomly on a store shelf as a copy-cat crime, and now we all have to hack our way into new ketchup bottles.<BR/><BR/>4) The fact that I have become allergic to many scents (at about the same time I had to start wearing the reading glasses mentioned in #2). Lotions, candles, perfume, air freshener, lavender-scented baby shampoo for pete's sake! Luckily Angie and Forrest were very kind to me today when I replaced the cat-pee scented candle with a new one. (Theirs was actually called "Sandalwood" - I'm going to google "allergies to sandalwood" and see what I find).<BR/><BR/>5. Bugging myself with things I wish I would have done differently when I was younger - it's so defeating and yet, I do it.<BR/><BR/>6. Pants that shrink!!!! I spend lots of good money on pants that are plenty long, and half the time they end up floods after 2 washings and then I can't wear them any more.<BR/><BR/>7. The fact that Wal-mart bugs me and I can't explain why, and that sometimes I shop there anyway, but I always feel guilty. Like I'm shopping on Sunday. Although last time I watched "You've Got Mail" I realized Meg Ryan's character represents my feelings - I want the little bookshop on the corner to stay in business - not the heartless mega-giant, same thing in every city store taking over the world - leading to global apathy and poverty, oops, see? I'm ridiculous on this subject!<BR/><BR/>8. Trying to find Dennis a Valentine's card every year - this year I gave up (the one I found was $5.00 and I called him and said, don't buy me a valentine card, let's just spend $10 more on dinner!)<BR/><BR/>9. Losing sign-up sheets at church that people entrust to me. I've lost them - twice - and it's like they disappeared into thin air.<BR/><BR/>10. The Doctrine and Covenants. There. I said it. I told Tony that once and he said, "Mom! it has the best scriptures of all" - but when I read it, the language doesn't work for me - it sound like polygamists are talking to me so I don't listen. The Book of Mormon always makes me happy and touches me spiritually no matter how many times I read it. The Bible too, and I love the Pearl of Great Price!!<BR/><BR/>Love<BR/>Mom SweatAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28467399.post-15564647527745062942007-02-19T20:41:00.000-05:002007-02-19T20:41:00.000-05:001.

And as far as the laundry in the dryer goes, I always leave it in there, but if you turn it on for 10-15 minutes, it's just about as good as new. It's almost as good as ironing.<BR/><BR/>Here are some things I hate (and I loved Amy's list):<BR/><BR/>1. When you have a cold and one side of your head is stuffed up, so you can only breathe out of one nostril.<BR/><BR/>2. Books that start out promisingly, but then meander around to an unsatisfying end. So annoying when you've invested all that time!<BR/><BR/>3. Realizing there's no toilet paper on the roll after it's (ahem) too late.<BR/><BR/>4. Cleaning. In general. I mean, it never ends. The messes! You clean them up and you have to start over again the very next day. It's ridiculous.<BR/><BR/>5. TV shows or commercials where really hot women are married to extremely schlubby looking men. How often in real life does one see this? I'd like to see them try the opposite: have a commercial where Roseanne Bar is supposedly married to George Clooney.Anghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08026899563208525525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28467399.post-89578803382535005042007-02-19T10:58:00.000-05:002007-02-19T10:58:00.000-05:00Great list, Andi. Here's a few things that bug me:...Great list, Andi. Here's a few things that bug me:<BR/><BR/>1. Slow drivers. There's no reason to go 10 mph under the speed limit on a straight road on a sunny day. <BR/><BR/>2. When people run their diesel powered truck for a half hour before they drive anywhere. Our neighbors have woken up Jack innumerable times because their gigantic F350 doesn't fit in their garage and they feel the need to idle it at 5:00 am for a half hour.<BR/><BR/>3. Our mailman folding our mail. Our post office contracts out the job of mailman so we have some normal Joe that drives his usual car to deliver the mail. He parks his car and then walks to each mail box and folds any magazines or large mail and wraps it with a rubber band because it's easier to carry. It's very annoying to read magazines with crease down the middle. <BR/><BR/>4. Little yappy dogs.<BR/><BR/>5. Students who don't even bring a pencil to class (or to get tutored).<BR/><BR/>6. The need for doctors to weigh you and take your blood pressure when you're coming in for something like mole removal. Does my weight really affect my moles?<BR/><BR/>7. Taxes and HOA fees<BR/><BR/>8. Vacuuming the stairs (I always make Dave do it)<BR/><BR/>9. When my item doesn't sell on Ebay.<BR/><BR/>10. Drinks that cost over $1.50 at a restaurant. I love having a Pepsi or Raspberry Lemonade when I go out to eat, but I feel guilty if I spend more than $1.50 for it, so I usually just get water.<BR/><BR/>What you said about zits is so funny! Dave and I were just having a conversation about how we thought our zits would go away after high school. I actually think mine got worse. What's with that?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28467399.post-7976112437964298742007-02-19T10:32:00.000-05:002007-02-19T10:32:00.000-05:00So what did you do to deserve beer in the hood of ...So what did you do to deserve beer in the hood of your sweatshirt? That is harsh! But I have to agree I hate mean fans too. Once I sat through a Championship game with a man in front of me talking trash about my dad the whole game. My mom left in tears and I kicked him. (I was like 12 or 13). And then we lost and it was probably the worst soccer game ever!<BR/><BR/>I also hate when my checkbook doesn't balance and then David comes and figures out why within about 10 seconds and makes me feel stupid. <BR/><BR/>But my number one is when I bite my nails (because it is a bad habit and I can't stop) to the point that they are too short and hurt! WHY DO I DO THAT?!<BR/><BR/>Number 2 might be when I finish a run and think it was great and look down at my watch only to realize it was way slower than normal. <BR/><BR/>NatalieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28467399.post-5997422766149755562007-02-17T22:09:00.000-05:002007-02-17T22:09:00.000-05:00Great list - pretty much all of them I'm sitting h...Great list - pretty much all of them I'm sitting here saying, "AH! Me, too! I hate that!!" My checkbook is ALWAYS about 37 cents off - every month!!<BR/><BR/> I'll add: 1.)forgetting about a load of laundry from Saturday night in the washing machine and finding it Monday morning. I have probably been through an entire econo-box of laundry detergent in the last year re-washing stinky forgotten clothes!<BR/>2.)Mice. I HATE MICE. We live in front of a field, so we occasionally get them. I have 3 cupboards in my kitchen that we have permanently sealed off and don't open because mice keep getting in them from under the house.<BR/>3.)Paper cuts<BR/>4.)Cleaning out the refrigerator. Its never pleasant. Ever.<BR/>5.)The process of potty training. Especially with carpet in the house...<BR/>6.) Losing things. I go nuts when I can't find something. One time we lost our van keys for an entire week and couldn't go anywhere. You know where they were? On the floor between the seats. I think someone was playing a nasty joke on us...<BR/><BR/>Anyway. I'm sure I can find many more, but maybe I should save it for my own blog:)<BR/><BR/>Thanks for always giving me good ideas to copy!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
