I love me a good list. My problem is that sometimes I forget to consult the list. For instance, the grocery list is in my purse, but I forget to look at it while I am there in the store. I have a wonderful calendar on my phone, but sometimes, I forget to check it prior to 3 pm to see what I may or may not have had scheduled.
Today, I thought it would be funny to tell you some things that I dislike.
I try not to be a hater, and I am not sure how long this list will be, but here we go.
I Dislike....
1) Pecans. To this day, my parents try to convince me that they are really good, and that I should try them again, but from time to time I get a cookie or some other treat, and with an accidental one bite of a piece of a pecan, that thing is going to the trash or a friend. Ick.2) Cashmere. It is soft and beautiful, but after about 30 seconds, I am itching everywhere it touches me.
3) Walking around barefoot. There is one exception to this, and it involves sand. At the beach, there is no problem. But in my house, especially on hard floors, I must wear socks or houseshoes.
4) Being hot. Again, the only exception involves the beach. But if I am in the house cleaning, or outside in the yard, I have about zero tolerance. I hate sweat, but it's life. Just saying, I don't like it.
5) Being patronized. C'mon, give a girl some credit. That drives me crazy. Don't explain the details of taking out the trash, or try to give me information that has been on the news for the last 5 months.
6) Toilet tissue touching. I think I have mentioned this before, but when I am in a hotel room and someone feels the need to fold back the edges of the tissue to form a neat and tidy triangle, all I can think of is, "why would I want to use something like that on private parts when it has been touched by human hands?"
7) Mean Teachers. Do you know any? I recall a couple from back in my day. Evil. No reason. I recall few from my kids' school days -- and I think it is so funny that they have no idea I know who they are and what happened. And I wasn't one of those parents who said, "My kid? No way!" We always listened to the adults as well as asking our kids and others present what happened. Remember, I am good at forgiveness, but I don't have to forget. Sometimes they were wrong.
8) Selfish and self-centered people. It doesn't hurt me. It hurts others. Once again forgiveness comes into play. But I only wish others would consider their actions and how they affect others.
9) Eminem. Needs no explanation. My guess is that since he has kids, karma will take care of him.
10) Talking about politics. Enough said.
11) Sales calls on the phone. Oh, this is bad. We have had years of opportunities to mess with these people. I am harsh. I mean, I can be downright rude. If they push me too hard on the wrong day, let's just say that a video camera would have put me on you tube more than once.
