Thank you everyone for your kind comments and emails, they
were all greatly appreciated. I am now trying hard to make a conscience
effort not to say bad things about myself and to treat myself better. I am
determined to make this work - I have been living like this too long - and for
once in my life I have happiness in it - and I do not want to let it go to waste
it with all my negative thoughts & feelings! I know it will be hard - but
what do they say - nothing good comes easy? Having all of you for support
helps, so again, thanks (I can not say it enough!)
Before I get to the question of the week, I have been
tagged, twice!

tagged me too - "5 idiosyncrasies..........go!"
1. I am deathly afraid of spiders (so bad I recently
put someone who called from The Netherlands on hold to drown one in bug spray -
sorry Yvonne!) I am pretty bad with all bugs actually. My sister once told
me that she never believed in reincarnation until I came along, she was 17 when
I was a baby and says that I would freak out in my crib when bug came near
me.
2. I, until very recently thought the expression,
"Nip it in the bud" was "Nip it in the butt".
3. I get very excited over the littlest things -
luckily Mike thinks it's cute, but it always leaves a first impression that I am
a bimbo when someone I just met witnesses it. It also sets me up for lots
of teasing from my co-workers and friends.
4. I am a major book geek - I ALWAYS have to know what
book I will be reading next - I actually know the next 6 books, in order that I
plan to read them at the moment (I, obviously, am an avid reader). I even
have spreadsheet with books I want and books I've already read.
5. I can not stand having my fingernails grow past my
fingers - I always have them really short - and of course, since I don't like
them long, they grow fast and are practically indestructible!
Which leads to the question of the week - what are some
of your idiosyncrasies?
Okay - now I am off to finish packing... Friday is moving
day!
