Sunday! Sunday!

I'm joining up with the Sunday Stealing crowd. Please forgive punctuation and possibly spelling errors and lack of cohesion in my thoughts. I haven't had much sleep!

1. October reading & writing goals and plans – I guess my reading goals would be to read all three chapters of my Biology textbook due right now. I almost always have a book for pleasure on my bike so that while I pedal, I can read.

2. Something I did that totally paid off – accepted the offer for my job. I’ve been there almost 20 years and this job has meant so much to me – not financially but personally.

3. I want to see this make a comeback – padded shoulders! Not really – just kidding!!

4. Generational traits I really value – would good work ethic count as a generational trait? If so, my parents had it and I have it. Mark’s parents had it and he has it. I think our kids have it, too.

5. Changes I’d like to see in my daily environment – I would like to see people being kind instead of mean; I would like to see all people treated with respect

6. Favorite soup dishes – I love lots of soup! I love chilis and stews and bean soups and vegetable soups.

7. Start with the best part, or save the best for last – I have a tendency to eat one thing at a time on my plate and I usually save my favorite for last EXCEPT French fries. I am always going to eat the French fries first.

8. The most chaotic part of my daily life – I guess it would be the amount of things I cram into every 24 hours

9. If I could only eat 10 things, I’d pick – watermelon, French fries, lean ground beef, chicken, apples, grapes, bananas, green beans, PBJ’s with sugar free jelly . . .oh wait! Except for the French fries, that is pretty much what I eat already.

10. What Autumn feels like where I live – coolish nights, warm days, crisp blue skies

11. The teacher who would be most proud of me – Mrs. Studdard was my first thought. She taught honors English my Senior year. Actually, I think one of my accounting professor from when I was taking classes back in the early 80’s would be proud. He knew I was getting married to Mark and he encouraged me to finish my college degree. I’m a tad late but I’m working on it now.

12. My go to Halloween snacks & treats – UTZ bats and jacks and Veggie Ghosts (Target)

13. 10 ways my life is great right now –

·        We are back in our home

·        We have lots of fun new stuff

·        We didn’t lose many sentimental things

·        We have amazing friendships

·        I have a great job

·        Mark loves volunteering each week

·        We have amazing kids

·        We have amazing grandkids

·        I am loved

·        Each new day is a clean slate

 

14. A perfect day indoors looks like – a good book to read, lots of diet pepsis, a cat for snuggling

15. Pumpkin spice – is great in a Premiere Protein shake
