♫ Random Monday: 6/7/10



Oh look, our sunshine squished between your one and only Daily Offensive!

Have I told you how much I love Random Monday's? Aside from the traditional girlie lunch, I get to clear my head of all the cob webs before starting off a fresh week.

*My daughter is FIVE. Five. I'm old. I'm like....26ish, and I feel OLD. And I wouldn't change a minute of it. I look at them and realize how absolutely bored and alone I was until God gave them to me.

*If you work too hard to impress your surroundings with untruths, you're going to forget about yourself, lose yourself, and lose everything eventually anyway. Work on yourself first, and make others love you for that instead.

*Appreciate somebody for what they're done for you, continue to do for you, or do without being asked? Tell them in a way that only they'll understand. Not by spending money on them, not by just "thank you", but by using words that will sink right to the bottom of things.

*I cannot stop cleaning out my closets, people. I have a problem.

*Everybody has skeletons in their closet. And eventually they come out and dance all on their own, even if you try to remove all the people in your life that know about them, send them mail, and invite them to dinner.



*Knowing everything about everything doesn't make you impressive, it makes you annoying.

*I knew snark would escape me on this blog today...apologies all around.

*There is just something about a guy that is willing to triple his work load, be sick, and juggle a girlfriend + kids, all at the same time without complaint. I'm blessed.

*I am so, SO blessed to have such an amazing support system. I say it a lot, but it's really something to look around a table of 20 people, or glace at the aquarium-themed crowd, and see how many are there just to make sure my daughter feels loved on her birthday, and me supported fully. You know who you are, and you know I love you so hard.

*Red Peppers on my sandwich's are my new favorite topping. The end.

Yours Truly,
Nomz

Now I 'liked' your Random Monday and certainly did not think you were snarky.

I really love your paragraph on "If you work too hard to impress your surroundings with untruths, you're going to forget about yourself, lose yourself, and lose everything eventually anyway. Work on yourself first, and make others love you for that instead"...WOW! People need to read this about a million times, print it out, put it on your frig, in your car, on your bathroom mirror and LIVE BY IT!

Happy Monday to ya!

I have only one response to this, and that is: 26 is not old! :P
