Better late than never.... 1. A laptop can be run over and not look like it (until you turn it on). 2. Back-up files, back-up files, back-up files!! 3. Sometimes one of your kids surprises you and makes a decision that shows more maturity, wisdom, and spirituatlity than you EVER did at their age and sometimes even more-so than you occasionally do now. 4. When you stand all day in nice shoes...your feet can swell big time and hurt for MORE than a day! 5. I CAN wing a three hour presentation with little or no PowerPoint and still get a good response! 6. My boss thinks I am a black and white....always goes by the rule book....girl! Boy, I think I have him fooled!!! 7. Some people in entertainment have different names than their stage names. I knew this...but was surprised at WHO was on Greg and Christie's TT list! I am STUMPED!! Then I discovered Dan's TT and now I KNOW I have some things to learn!! 8. The Space Shuttle is delivered to it's launch pad by a machine made in the small town where I was born at the company where my uncle worked! 9. I am going to miss my kids when they are not at home anymore...the house has been too quiet too many nights this week (and for that matter, the entire summer---with three of the four often gone). 10. I will be speaking to 500 principals in North Carolina in October. I'm already "Goin' to Carolina in my mind"! 11. People who are not driven or passionate about SOMETHING annoy me!! 12. Laughter really IS a good medicine! I've had the opportunity to laugh a lot this week. 13. And, Mary, those NAPS are a GREAT revitalizer!!!!! |

Thank you for posting on my site. I love having boys! Boys are such a blessing. I totally agree with you. : )
Yeah, another late TTer. I'm off to see what you mean by #7
Hey girlfriend, you totally crack me up! The empty nest has it's own rewards. Have a safe trip to Carolina.
I'm with you a 100% on #3.
Thanks for visiting.
Thanks for visiting my list!
When I was writing my college thesis paper I didn't even think about backing up my files, for some reason! It was only after someone mentioned it in class that I did. Lucky! I was working on a laptop and lost a chunk. Good thing I had remembered! :)
P.S. I love your Winston Churchill quote!
Susan...thanks for coming by...you will have a hard time when your house is quiet. I had a time with it and I am sure you will too. It took me a few years but it is okay now. Just takes getting used to it...Sandy
I'm soooo with you on the passion thing! It's why I often but heads with my little phlegmatic-melancholy!
I'm majorly jealous of the Carolina trip...could you fit an extra body in your hotel room, LOL?
Wow, you can WING a 3 hour presentation without Powerpoint? I'm so totally impressed.
And you're absolutely right, backing up your files is very important. Been there, done that :)
Have a great day, my T13 is up also...
Yes, Backing up files is a must do, especially if you are planning to run it over with your car. Sounds like it wasnt a good day

I love your list. #8...fascinating!

I'm curious to know what area of NC you're coming to. I live in NC. =) If you're going to go somewhere in your mind (or in real life), there's no better place than NC. =D
You learned some good lessons this week. Good job!
Oh no on the laptop! I hope you've been able to back up & retrieve those files! I've learned a good lesson backing up recently too.
