Woo Hoo, it's Camel Day!
I must be a glutton for these things, as I love these Humpday Hillbilly challenges, even though sometimes (like this one for instance) makes me look deep into my soul and pour out my life for perfect strangers to read. But if I can’t put it down on my computer screen when will I ever get the chance again! LOL!
Anyways, not too much to report here, just miserable and tired, Aunt Flo came to visit and woke me up at 4am with killer back and abdomen pain. No sympathy was received from my household so I am at work toughing it out. At least today is probably the worst day of Aunt Flo’s visit and all will be back to normal soon enough. I am working, errrrr….at work right now, needed a break from reading, saw the Challenge was up and decided to accept the mission. So here ya go!
Hey ya'll! Today is Humpday so that means it's time for the Hillbilly Humpday Challenge! This challenge is going to be all about you and your life! Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to write about events in your life that are significant to you that begin with each letter. These can also be characteristics about yourself that you like. Good luck!
A – Always there for my friends when they need me.
B – Becoming organized in my life…inside myself and out.
C – Creative accomplishments…what I mean by this is actually trying and completing my paintings, drawings, other artwork and craft things.
D – Don’t sweat the petty stuff and don’t pet the sweaty stuff.
E – Earning respect of my superiors at work…though this is a “work in progress”, I have made great strides to show that I AM worthy to do this job.
F – Forgiving people that have hurt me.
G – Graduated with an Associates and a Bachelors degree from college
H – Have a real career and am not working in a restaurant anymore.
I – I have the things I wanted…a college degree, a career, a boyfriend, a house, and a dog.
J – Just Being me and not trying to be someone else to attract attention.
K – Kinship with my siblings and other relatives, but mostly with my siblings.
L - Learned to let someone into my heart again after it had been smashed to a million pieces.
M – Managed to remain calm when I get extremely frustrated and pissed off at work.
N - Never regretted things that made me happy at any point in my life. AMEN!
O – Over-achieving at my studies…when you pay for it you definitely try hard.
P – Put myself through college without anyone’s help.
Q - Quit caring about how others think of me and thinking only about what I know is true.
R – Respect for life and every living thing until it gives me a reason not to (case in point, one of the managers I work with, the first time I met him, he didn’t bother to get up from his chair [mind you he was behind his desk with his feet on the desk] or shake my hand, he just grunted instead of saying “Hi” or “Nice to meet you”…that did not show me respect, so I don’t feel like he deserves my respect.)
S – Speaking out when I have something to say, and speaking my feelings to others, not keeping them bottled up. This has been and still is tough for me.
T – Telling people you love that you love them as often as possible…you don’t know when will be the last time you see them.
U – Understanding that a relationship is not one-sided and you have to compromise with the other, sometimes you’re the 60% and they are the 40%, sometimes they are the 60% and sometimes you’re the 40%, it’s give and take.
V – Vastly improved my prudish anal tendencies and have become way laid back.
W – Wishing the best for people instead of the worst.
X – Xerox machines really are getting revenge.
Y – You can’t control everything, some things you have to just let happen and let it go.
Z - Zooming through life without stopping to take pictures and smell the roses once n a while will get you nowhere.
