Bumble Bees, Cockroaches & The Beatles

Hello readers! I hope you all had a great weekend. This week I thought I'd share with you some realizations I have made from the past few days. 

I realized...

* Fanny packs are kind of "in" (or socially acceptable now) for college students. I have not fully wrapped my brain around this. 

* That I absolutely HATE feeling fearful. There is no other feeling that makes me feel more vulnerable and out of control. Last week on 2 separate occasions (one involving a giant cockroach and the other involving 2 boys hiding in a closet) I was fearful for two different reasons. Thank goodness that roach didn't crawl on my face and the boys came out from hiding! 

*That if I get in the mood to clean, then I MUST seize that opportunity. 

* That some business owners have courage to share their faith despite the possibility of turning away customers. 

* I am a sweeter and more patient mom if I get my "me time". 

* There is NOT one Beatles song that I don't love.

* That I could never be a preschool or a kindergarten teacher.  So much respect for them!! 

* How much I LOVE having deep conversations with friends. I'm so thankful to have friends who think (and analyze) like me. 

* That Edward prefers chocolate over any other candy. He also prefers Cheetos over any other chip. Hmm...wonder where he gets that from?

* Retail Me Not is my go-to retail $ saver now. Such an awesome app. Try it!

* If I am going to resent doing something, I won't do it. Saying no can be a good thing. 

* That watching Troy chase and bark at bumble bees never gets old. Always entertaining. 

* It only takes 9 minutes to reorganize a very messy and nagging drawer. 9. 

* That a problem becomes less of a problem after venting to someone. 

* Next month will make 12 years that I have been driving my car. 12. She's been a good car and looks good for her age though ;)

* That I have only just begun to experience life.

Take a minute to reflect on your past week. 

What is something you have realized about your life or about yourself?

What worked and what didn't work for you this past week?

Help Yourself by learning about yourself from your experiences. We need to apply what we learn.  Do what works best for you and don't do what doesn't work for you. Simple as that. 

 

Have a great week everyone!
