    I don't know why but I've grown to like this monthly post. It's the only time I'm consistent about posting, which is probably why I like it and it doesn't take a lot of work as I compile throughout the month.

    On all the blogs that explain what people wish they would've done is always quit your job (that you're miserable in). I didn't understand that until I did it. I felt on top of the world! #9

    So I read about this book on a friend's blog.

    Mom Q's

    I'm obviously not a mom but clicked on the link anyway and found other books. I didn't want to come up with my own thoughts because some days, I just don't have inspiration thoughts and what not, so I purchased the 5 year question and answer one. I played catch up on January and have loved doing it. I am actually going to purchase it for each of my seniors as part of their gifts for their open house. I wish I got it when I was a senior (instead of 7 Oswald Chambers "My Utmost for the Highest" books) - just simply answering questions about you, same question over 5 years to be able to look back on.

    Do you ever hate when you're right? You know that time you warn your friends about something and they do it anyway. You're right and they're hurt is never pleasant.

    A chat with a co-worker

    them:

    did you have unch yet?

    Me:

    nope, i haven't

    Them:

    me neither

    (At this point, I felt I should ask a question and lead the conversation...which I ended up doing.)

    Me:

    bring anything good to eat?

    I still step into that role but just doesn't make sense when someone else starts the conversation but wants the other to lead it. It really isn't a big deal and doesn't really bother me at all. Just another fascination with how people are different.

    I know I've written about this before. Christian jokes or sayings we get away with...here's another. "Bless your heart" or their heart. That person, bless their heart, had me over to watch this movie, play this game, help them with...fill in the blank. Essentially what we're doing is prefacing what stupid thing they did with their good intentions.

    People are always posting these quizzes or tests on facebook. Sometimes I take them and post them here. Looking back at this months compiling, I took a couple this month and I'm adding the links here, in case you want to enjoy them, too.

    Career you should have : I've been told this on multiple occasions.

    What Toy Story Character : That's pretty spot on.

    Oops, I lied. I can't find this quiz. I don't hum and you're thankful, I don't.

    Facebook wasting: I'm really unsure how accurate this actually is but still interesting. My guess is it is taking into account being logged in or it being up in a tab...either way, not bad for all the facebook pages I manage for people.

  • That Q&A journal is so cool! I want that one now! That's a really good idea to give it to your seniors. And LOVE your line about how you would've preferred that to 7 copies of "My Utmost For His Highest." Lol! So true!

    I got Professor on the career test. Now I'm mad I didn't get writer. I didn't know that was an option.

    I think I can be one of those people who starts a conversation but wants someone else to lead it. I like to converse, but I'm terrible and keeping the conversation going. I need other people to do that for me. Haha. It's why Kelly and I get along so well. ;-)

    I don't even want to know how many days of my life I've wasted on facebook. Yikes.

    • I saw the kids one and thought I'd get it for Beka and the boys, too. I STILL am holding on to some of the 2006 Advice and whatever books I got from graduating thinking I may read them...someday. I'd re-gift them but the all say 2006 on them. People, give practical gifts. (Oh and thanks for letting me stalk your blog and post about it. :) )

      I'm not making fun of those kind of people, just to be clear. :)

  • Oooh, just saw they have one of those Q&A journals for kids! Totally getting it for Lucy!
