I have bad check out line karma. Customers all over shared a sigh of relief when I started internet shopping. If you see me in a line, for your own well being, choose another line.
I am not as quirky as I would like to think I am. Being a chocoholic, having a cat with no tail, and practicing complementary healing does not make one quirky. Wow, that's kind of a drag in a way.
I am embracing not caring more about others' problems than they do. This can be a challenge with my family and patients, but it doesn't mean I'm not supportive or empathetic. Just the opposite actually, but I can't take my kid's science tests or my patient's insulin shots for them.
I am daily suprised and humbled that my husband and kids think I am worthy of their abiding love and affection.
I am proud of the fact I can live with ambivalence and for all my struggles, I have beautiful scars.
Thank you for the gift of your time by reading this and sharing your own truths if you wish. Best to you and yours for a restful Labor Day Weekend. (Hey, that's kind of an oxymoron, isn't it?) Also, if you're of a mind, please check below for "WTF Wednesday" contest for fun and prizes.

I feel like I should warn the people standing behind me in line. Just to give them the option to get in another, longer line, that will prove to be shorter. It's my lot in life.
I like the "embracing not caring more about others' problems than they do". I think that's going to be my motto in life from now on. Can I quote you?
Have a great long weekend. It's back to work on Monday for me. :-(

PS: I think you really sweet!
I am one of those people that gets in the slowest line ever! Ugg!
Enjoy your long weekend!
Martha- I have this family on my heart, and thought to tell you about them, b/c I know you will pray for them!! Their site is on my blog!!
I like your list of things.
One of my truths: it is easier for me to be happy for people when they don't try to be perfect. (or show themselves as perfect)
have a great weekend!
Just wanted to let you know that you always make my day brighter with your caring heart and thoughtful comments. Have a great night.
