Learning each day

I like to think that we all learn something new everyday. It can be any kind of knowledge, but learning means you are moving forward, living life. In reality I think we all learn many new things everyday but we may not always realize it at the time or ever in some cases. Some lessons are practical ones-like adding baking soda to the water when you boil eggs or getting a stain out of clothing. Other lessons are more educational like the meaning of a new word or how to do something you never thought of before. And there are those life lessons that come with life experiences that make you wiser!

I know it is not the end of the day and thinking back on what I learned each day should come at the end of the day, when the day is over and complete. But this is rolling around in my head now and is not all about just today, but in general. So here it comes out of my fingers and for you to read if you want!

Things I've learned:
-There are all kinds of people and you have to use a different set of rules and methods of dealing with each! There are nosy people, clueless people, people who would not know common sense if it kicked them in the shins, people who will schlep their way through life, people who will annoy the heck out of you, people who make you happy just to think about and the list goes on and on. You learn as you go!
 -Grapes taste better cold than at room temp-they are sweeter!
-People don't know how to push their chairs back in when they leave a table and yes adults are some of the worse at this.
-Some people are just naturally messy.
-Some people are over-the-top neat freaks and they have problems when things are not all organized in their little world. Messy people are more laid back! I have a foot in both the messy and the neat world-a happy medium-at least I think so!
-Some people just can not not talk LOUD. I think they like to hear themselves talk, I don't know I could be wrong. Or maybe they have a hearing problem?!
-There are some people and pets who you never forget. Their memories come back when you least expect it.
-Kittens bite-A LOT!
-Exercising puts you in a better mood-do it every day.
-You can tell some people something several times and they will still act surprised each time you tell or remind them, like it is the first time they've heard it....this drives me nuts.
-Once a mom, always a mom! And I understand my mom more and more each day-I wish she was here so I could tell her, but she knows.
-Alone and quiet time is good for you. It gives you the opportunity to do what you want, when you want and not live according to a schedule someone else has for you. If you choose to sit and watch tv and do nothing, that's your choice. If you choose to turn the world over and get as much as you can, that too is your choice. It's all your choice.
-Some people live from meal to meal. I can easily skip meals and have popcorn or a salad or cereal instead of a full blown sit down and eat meal. Where or what my next meal will be is not a source of constant concern for me-there are a lot more important things go be concerned about.
-We are all different shapes and sizes, weight and height. You are you, stop comparing yourself to someone else. Like what you see in the mirror not what you think other people think or how they see you. What they think of you is none of your business and who cares.  Love yourself and take care of yourself.
-Some people are so talented and they don't realized how talented they really are. I just want to shake them and tell them to wake up and use those talents!!
-Some people are just slow to pick up on things. Your dirty dishes sitting around for days is annoying and makes me a little more irritated each day-especially when it is at work. Be responsible, unless you are like 3-years old.
-The dehumidifier does not empty it's self and fills up fast when it is hot and humid out. No magic involved here, but some people are oblivious here.
-There are people who constantly say one thing and then do another. They ask or make promises then bale on you. Leave them be and don't believe a word they say, it's all about them.
-Be positive, no matter what the situation or day brings, helps make life better. Don't let people suck your fun circuits dry.
Live and learn....

Positive thought of the day: Think about all the life lessons you've learned, good, bad or otherwise they make us who we are and happen for a reason.
