ReplyDeleteI agree with most of this, especially #9
ReplyDeleteI'm a mid-day person, too!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you singing along with Elvis. That makes me smile.
ReplyDeleteThat would be a good ability to have. I would like to wake up and suddenly have that, too. Glad you got to sing with Elvis on your birthday. Happy Birthday! and how is 51? Get it all warmed up and ready for me...I get there next month.
ReplyDeleteYou have a keen sense of abilities. :)
ReplyDeleteI struggle with weight, too. And I agree with you on 6. Sometimes it goes on just too long, and some others are short changed. That is so unfair on Destiny's part. Feel Better, even if just a little. Small Victories!
