Haphazard Thoughts #2
- Most movies leave me feeling I've wasted my time.
- Old-fashioned good manners need to be brought back.
- Plant a vegetable garden, no matter how small.
- There are so many wonderful books to read, never plod on through one you're not enjoying.
- If someone asks me to keep a secret, wild horses won't drag it out of me.
- No one fails to be moved by a sincere, hand written, complimentary note.
- I'm not tolerant of people who are habitually late.
- We all need to voice our positive thoughts and feelings, not just our negative ones.
- Try to find something funny in any upsetting situation.
- Admit your mistakes without rationalizing your actions.
- It's very hard for me to spend money.
- I still have very fond memories of my most physically taxing job: Detasseling corn.
- Don't waste time in any kind of a relationship with a dishonest person.
- Listen to what your body is trying to tell you; it never lies.
- When you lend an item, always write down what it was, to whom you lent it, and the date.
- My physical surroundings are very important to me.
- Smile. It makes anyone look more attractive.
- I can figure out an intricate quilt pattern, but I can't program the VCR.
- Never tell anyone the way they feel is wrong.
- Be polite enough to return phone calls.
- Who gets to decide what I "should" do?
- I'm a slow learner in most things cerebral. I'm a quick learner in most things physical.
- Bottling up your true feelings will make you sick. Always.
- Am I the kind of person I'd like to be around?

ReplyDeleteFor your habitually late daughter and your habitually late husband, I can only say, "Uh Oh!!!!" (We're in trouble!)1
I love your random thoughts and find that I agree with 98% of them (I'm the VCR programmer at our house). And just yesterday I took a half-finished book back to the library (the autobiography of Valerie Bertinelli which was just about the stupidest book I've read so far this year!)
ReplyDeleteRuthie - Well, you just saved me the trouble of ordering VB's book from Mail-A-Book. It was on my list, but I've just crossed it off!
