It’s 4 a.m. and here’s my list of 10.
Since it’s 4 a.m. and I’ve been up for an hour — why not turn to Stasha for a little Monday Listicle fun.
This week Kerstin @Auer Life suggested: 10 THINGS I LEARNED IN 2012.
Why not indeed:
10. If you wake up in the middle of the night and crawl out to your laptop — every animal in the house (except fish and turtle) will come and lay on you in some manner. And since it is cool in the house right now I don’t mind all that much.
Makes it kind of hard to type, though.
9. Even if you never think it really will happen to you . . . your body does start to age.
D@mn it. I thought I would be the only person who would drop dead at 83 looking just as I did at 45.
Nope.
8. I have friends who are just too nice for this world. And definitely too nice for me. They make me realize I am a horrible selfish person sometimes.
This is terrific. So now I can work on improving inner beauty while my outer is shot to h@ll.
7. Focusing on loving others and expecting nothing in return — is key to happiness. (see number 8)
6. What an HTML is or does. Okay. Maybe I still don’t know?
5. Life is a series of obstacles. You NEVER get rid of them. I guess I always knew this. I finally accept it as truth.
4. Attitude does matter. I now fight negativity with wild abandon. Last major hurdle is Number 9. And that obstacle thing — gets a hold of my positivity and throttles it occasionally as well.
3. It is much better to clean the kitchen before I go to bed each night. And make up the bed, first thing every morning.
2. Writing always makes things better. Even if it is painfully eeking out a clunker of a first draft.
1. I am so very blessed. (In spite of myself.)
What about you?
Even if it’s not early in the morning — what have you learned this year?
