And I'm not crafty either

The purpose for my unemployment was a chance for me to DISCOVER myself. Here is what I've discovered.

  • Lying, stretching, and sweating profusely in a small, heated room of 125 degrees at over 40% humidity that smells like a mixture of expressed bowel movements, salt, and body odor is NOT my idea of becoming "at one" with anything. Especially my body. Goodbye Bikram.
  • I'm not very original. I wrote a song for Cole at our wedding, as I've already told you, but I don't like the music and its actually painful for me to play now. But as I've tried creating paintings, music, ideas for Family Night, planning parties, or even a date night, I've discovered I am creatively illiterate. I am, however, AMAZING at copying.
  • I really like being spontaneously organized.
  • I don't like action/horror movies- they make me anxious. borderline traumatize me.
  • Playing the guitar soothes my soul .....and gives me arthritis.
  • I'm not a very good cook. Heartbreaking. Or maybe its that I need to stick to a recipe.

I think this might be all the self discovery I can take. I've decided its time to go back to the office.


Anyone hiring?

#4-I used to like them in HS but whoah- goodness. uh can I say AHAHHHHH! Never more.
#5I have that problem too. Lately I have cooked some freezer meals that turned out so good I felt like a domestic super woman and wondered were it was these past 7 years!
Nice self discovery. Love it.

Thank you for your comment on my blog! I love getting feedback from ya and I think you would look totally hot in that dress. On a nice date with Mr. Stoneman of course. :)

You make me laugh. Do I say this enough? I think not. +6+

I, too, am traumatized by horror movies. I refuse, absolutely refuse to go see a horror movie. Although, I can handle the occasional (sp?) haunted house.. but I really plug my ears thru the whole thing. It's the only way I can make it thru scary moments.. my mute button. I wish you would use this "selfdiscovery" time to come see me! Or me come see you! whichever! I miss you.

Is the movie, "Enough" classified as an action movie that you hate? Because seeing that movie was a fun memory with you. Even though you took me into the wrong theatre and there was only 30 minutes left and we had climbed over about 20 people to get in and then we had to crawl back over them to get out and go into the right theatre. Being with you is always a fun adventure!
