33. I get mad when kids are walking 30 ft. in front of their parents and the parents are not paying any attention to them

34. I am going to text my dad and say Happy Father’s day (as soon as I find my phone that is)

35. I am going to make today about me and I guess my empty fridge

36. I cried when a man in the hallway last night offered to take the giant box i was dragging to the dumpster for me

I'm on 18.???? You all are killing me!! :ninja:

18. I love to give gifts - nothing searching and hunting for just the right thing and springing it on someone I love at the oddest moment :tup:
19. Driving OUT of town, watching the road through the rearview mirror with loved ones all tucked in off to a new adventure, no big bucks needed just fun attitude, I love it!
20. I'm never miss a chance at telling someone what they mean to me, I missed it one time years ago and I will never make that mistake again, call me sappy, it will never bother me.
21. I'm not a afraid to make a fool out of myself :D, at the fair there was this HUGE HOT PINK chair just calling my name to have pictures taken in it,. The crowd was making me nervous but bam!! Once I was in it and I was posing like a natural while people first tried to ignore me, then families came over and wanted in on it ;) That's right!!! Loads of fun!! My youngest Grandboy at the time asked me, "Grandma, how did you get that chair in your house???" HA!! What's NOT to love about a big chair and goofing around on it, huh???
22. I love to laugh and I am LOUD, you can hear my laugh across a crowded stadium. I try to laugh at least once a day, whether it's with a show on TV, my Little Dog, or with a friend, even if I cry the rest of the day.
23. I love contradictions, especially in people, it's my very favorite. What you see is never what you get, it's amazing, like magic :cool:.
24. Diversity is my life, my family, my friends, my joy. I will give this to my family growing up they gave me experiences and open doors, we went everywhere and had friends from all over. I learned to cook all types of food though now I only eat it ;)
25. I like to call people instead of texting or emailing. I prefer hearing their voices. I can talk for hours and hours so my friends and family know to set lots of time aside if they call me but I believe that it matters to hear the voice. I also write letters in ink to my son with the date. I have no idea if he keeps them but I've kept a few those I've loved so maybe. I believe it's the personal touches.

Will be back ...good grief this is difficult ...............

28. I like to be early or on time to everything
29. Despite all of my built up anger from my abuse, I can still control it enough where I won't hurt (emotionally or physically) the ones I love
30. I had the strength to tell my abuser off
31. I had the strength to be at the same event as my abuser without breaking down
32. I still have the ability to occasionally get "high on life" (no drugs or alcohol)
33. I'm not afraid to pick up gross things like bugs and mice and rats (I actually find rats and mice to be great pets)
34. I built up enough courage and strength to tell my father about the trauma
