I was torn about doing a TT this week, 'cuz I really need to be doing other stuff...but I couldn't help it...so here I am.
1…. I like that after all these years, I don't look my age.
2…. I like that after all these years, I don't act my age either.
3…. I like that I've matured enough to not care what others think about me.
4…. I like that I'm brave enough to not follow the crowd.
5…. I like that in this mess that is my home, I know where to find where I left my stuff.
6…. I like that my memory still for the most part works very well...yeah so what if I've got lists everywhere...I know where my lists are.
7…. I like that I have a green thumb and can grow stuff. I've figured out where pretty much all my plants want to live...that's important or they'll die.
8…. I like that I'm a helpful person. I help people even if they don't ask for help. Sometimes that backfires...but I don't take it personally.
9…. I like that I'm cheap and resourceful. I found that some stuff I want is going on clearance this Sat and while it was already a good deal, it will be an even better deal then...SCORE!
10…. I like that I can do so much myself. I'm mechanically inclinded and not afraid to dig into something to figure out how it works...especially when it's broken. Saved lots of $$ on my vacuume that way.
11…. I like that I'm crafty. I've made all of Darly's Halloween costumes until this year and she wants to be a cat because someone gave her a black catsuit leotard. So I'll be sewing a costume for myself instead. Usually I come up with a costume for me from my closet.
12…. I like that I know all the words to my favorite songs and can sing them. I'm not saying it sounds good...it's just accurate.
13…. And I like that I am loved by those who matter to me the most.

It's always a good thing to be comfortable with yourself.
ReplyDeleteHappy TT!
What a great list--it is refreshing to see someone openly "liking" themselves!
ReplyDeleteMy TT is up!
You are a VERY helpful person, and I'm so grateful for that!
ReplyDeleteWhere do you get off calling your house messy? Do you have a house I haven't seen?
You were reading Denise's mind!(did you visit the TT hub?) I love positive lists, I wish I was technically inclined, I am very limited but I have help at home. I have a bit of a green thumb but I keep trying! Happy TT :)
ReplyDeleteWell I like that you made a list this week. And I like that you visited my T13
ReplyDeleteGreat list! You have many things to be proud of!!! Number 13... is so true... and so important!
ReplyDeleteHappy T13! My list's up!
Wow, great list! Wonderful to see such a positive attitude.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by!
Great list! It's good to feel good about yourself.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by.
Wow! I guess you are covered for two weeks! LOL
ReplyDeleteActually the challenge was for next week, but that's OK...because it's not WHEN you did it that counts. What counts is that you can come up with 13 things that you like about yourself...that's the important thing!
Thanks for participating. :)
Yay for you! I like that you're very friendly :)
ReplyDeleteGreat list! I will be doing Denise's challenge of this topic for next week's TT. I will have to think long and hard to come up with 13 though.
ReplyDeleteI find that as I get older what's most important is what I think.
ReplyDeleteLike your double whammy idea.
Golly I need to make a call list myself!
Take care,
Frances
would that be a Thursday 26?
ReplyDeleteleaving a comment for BOTH your tt's this week. thanks for stopping by today. mr linky isn't working for me:( so no one is commenting but they all hav stopped by i see.
ReplyDeletehave a good weekend.
Your page didn't load for me until just now. Hmph. I love this idea. It is so useful every once in a while to self pat on the back.
ReplyDeleteYou go girl...with all the experiences you've had growing up (why should I be surprised that you don't care what others think about you.) I think you are a very confident, loyal and creative person.
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of making your own costumes. I might have a go at it this year!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
I wish tht I was more mechanically inclined. Good for you!
ReplyDeleteWill it count if I send someone to break into your house and clean the bathrooms??
ReplyDeleteGreat list-even the second time around!
I'm not sure if I look my age. I definitely don't act my age.
ReplyDelete"In case one of us gets into a bad conversation, we should have a signal that you're in trouble so the other one can get us out of it."
"How old are you?"
"Thirty-six. What's the signal? How about this? Chicken wing? No, no, I got a better one. Head patting."
Ha! Bone. No, it's Tippytoe Lemontree
ReplyDeleteI really liked this week's assignment; I feel like I got to know some people much better! Great list :-)
