jeeze and crackers!!

i was really surprised that barb had tagged me. never thought that would happen!
so i first have to say thank you for giving me something to blog about! i have such a boring life, no humor, and spend my time working on things at home than surf the web and find cool stuff! so here it goes!! Yay! and this is not in order.

8 things i am passionate about:
-the gospel
-living life as upbeat you can (understanding you have those days, but i do believe it is a choice)
-being honest about everything, in particular your work
-seeing people as spirit siblings, instead of someone i really really really hate!!! GRR!
-my family
-my friends - those who are still talking to me! :)
-being a role model to all those around me, young old, mean, smart - all that jazz
-understanding where and why people get their ideas

8 things i want to do before i die/wish list:
-fly in a helicopter - conscious and no one hurt in the helicopter
-get a jet ski

-create the greatest dish anyone has ever tasted! (or at least something really really really good)

8 things i have learned/am learning in my life:
-Patience is everything!! oh my goodness!!
-some people enjoy their misery, even if it hurts them more in the end
-education is actually fun, and not just something that you have the younger age groups do to keep them out of trouble.
-God is really smart!
-life takes work, and you can't have everything on a silver platter.
-when you work for something by yourself, and earn every little bit of it, it is so much more satisfying than having it handed to you.
-you need to kick life in the butt!! Yeah man!
