What I Learned This Week

in What I Learned This Week

I have run non-stop all day long. It was a beautiful day and I enjoyed being out and about in the SKY. It is so fun to drive and I feel blessed to have it. I am more comfortable with the clutch and I have finally (after three months) mastered backing down into our steep driveway without having a panic attack.

I would love to be able to say that my nose is behaving. But alas, it is not. I have used two boxes of tissues in four days and my nose is raw and sore. Not to mention I am tired of blowing my nose over and over and over. It’s maddening.

But, enough about my slimy, snotty nose. Let’s move on to What I Learned This Week…

1. Parents who allow their children to act like straight-up brats without the slightest bit of discipline or consequence disgust me. They really need to be woke the heck up or else they will be visiting their children in C-Pod someday. I should know, I dealt with plenty of adult brats during my time in jail.

2. Our neighborhood might not be as safe as I once thought.

3. Playing baseball is about so much more than a bat and a ball.

4. Abraham Lincoln tied Lyndon B. Johnson as the tallest President at 6 ft. 4 inches.

5. Six year-olds ask the most interesting questions.

6. Quahogs is an official word on the Words With Friends.

7. A quahog is a clam.

8. It is impossible to keep this house neat and orderly for more than 24 hours.

9. Before trying a Pinterest project, you might want to pay close attention to the pictures.

10. I will NEVER EVER again so long as I live use an oil-based primer.

Now, what did YOU learn this week?

I learned that we missed an all important baseball game last night. :(
I learned that a simple phone call to an elderly aunt brings joy to the caller as well as the aunt. :)

I’m with you on the bratty kids thing. If they are allowed to act that way as children, why would they change as adults?

Glad that you finally got your Sky, and that you have mastered the clutch :)

If parents would follow Biblical principles of child-rearing, the world would be a much better place! Thanks for the great post & for hosting the linkup, and God bless!
