What Makes Me Happy: |
| NIce People, Dogs, Human Lunacy, Good food and long friendships. | What Makes Me Sad: |
| When good people die young, injured animals, if I offend or, inadvertently, hurt anyone and, occasionally, my long-term aches and pains. | What Makes Me Mad: |
| Inconsiderate or rude people, cold food when it should be hot, people who litter, not much else...I have lots of experience not letting the little things bug me. | My Bad Habits: |
| Watching too much TV, drinking bottomless amounts of Diet Pepsi, loving high calorie foods like Fries and Bubble Yum, and some other things that I've conveniently forgotten. Aging has some benefits after all! | My Final Thoughts: |
| The meaning of life is...
The Golden Rule, being true to oneself by taking care of oneself; I do this by not smoking at all and drinking alcohol very rarely for example. I have physical issues that limit exercise, but will be having hip surgery this year in the hope of making walking for distance, or perhaps even jogging, possible again. IMHO, there's no such thing as "minor" surgery, so this care took years to decide upon. Eventually, pain wins, no matter how well one manages it. A key part of my life also is maintaining my longest-term friends. Happily, I have an army of cousins, so family contacts are a tad easier given the numbers. I also try to really appreciate the people who help me, like my house cleaner. She does a great job and listens to my requests, such as NOT moving the piles of books I have in the LR and BR. *I* know I'll never get around to reading them all, but feel good that I haven't stopped HOPING that I can read them all no matter how long it takes. Reading is a life force for me, so I keep buying and stacking up books anyway! On we go! |
