 Posted: 11/14/03 - 10:24 Post subject: what have you learned THIS week?
I learned:
- RR wimmins (especially from the West Posse) can always be counted on in times of need
- when the office lacks power for an hour, people go crazy
- that taper really, really sucks and makes me border on insanity
- 1996 was a good year for clothing, so says my "new" wardrobe
- the stronger the wind, the bigger my smile
Now. You. Go.

I have learned:
-I can run a half marathon at just over a 7:00 pace.
-Not having time to bike just plain sucks.
-I wish I could just be assigned a place to live and not have to search.
-Under-armour leaves me completely dry after taking it off.
-Crown & sprite is not as good as crown & coke.
-To save receipts until after you have watched every disc in the 4 disc collection.
-I miss certain people more than I let myself believe.

Not understanding something when I think I should is probably the biggest thing that makes me upset.
If I had a dollar for everytime I heard "John was supposed to call you..." I wouldn't NEED child support. 
Everyone I love gets a little wiggy about food now and then.
My son has inherited my gene for vivid dreams. 
Every birthday my son has is a prayer of thanksgiving for me.  Tomorrow.

AMEN to that, sistah!!!
I learned:
-- no matter how tweaked I am, the people who matter most in my life still love me, so it really doesn't matter if anyone outside that circle doesn't 
-- the first step toward recovery is believing in yourself 
-- believing in yourself is way easier when you have a lot of people pulling for you--thanks guys!
-- running in 40-MPH wind ROCKS MY FACE OFF!!! (even though my cow-orkers think I'm insane) 
-- I may be slow but I can still run, and I love it more than ever!
-- everything really DOES happen for a reason, even if that's not evident at the time it happens
-- most of my friends and my roomie survived the layoffs and we can all breathe easier, at least til January 
-- corporate America sucks no matter how you justify its existence

- accepting the fact that you *know* something, is a lot harder then panicking and cramming.
- it's really important to make time for loved ones. even if it's just enough time for a hug.
- for marriage to work people need to support each other.
- people complain alot about the high loonie.
- i'd like to gather my thoughts.
oh, and i think i did really good on my Accounting exam. assuming i understood the questions & guessed accordingly the ones i didn't know (and i like to think i picked the right things to do), it's possible for me to get 100%. i figure i'm good for another 90, at least an 80. and i'm happy with that.

- I learned if you get a flu shot and a few hours later your arm is a little sore and you think it is a previous injury, so you push and poke around on it, it will swell up and hurt real bad.
- I can be a real idiot sometimes.
- I am appreciated for all the cooking I do!
- Nichole doesn't have school today!!I learned that at 8:00 last night.

I've learned:
-I'm craving Starbuck's Mochas like crazy.
-that you can find great deals on the sales rack at Old Navy. I lucked out for Nolefan1.
-that we've made it through another milestone with Little Nolefan3. No.More.Pacifiers.Ever (now if only he would be potty trained)
-cleaning out and decluttering is a good feeling.
-my garage is next 
-my middle child, Little Nolefan2, is so sweet. She thinks all the bins of hand-me-downs are wonderful and a brand new pair of pj's is like Xmas.
-that I'm getting excited for some of YOUR races coming up soon! Keep up the hard work. I'm cheering for you.
