2. You can't depend on the Marines to keep to their deployment dates.
3. Some mothers are just plain, throw-me-off-a-bridge crazy and cannot be trusted... AT ALL.
4. I can actually knit more than just a knit and a purl. Perhaps I do have a craft in me!
5. I can drink a sweet Gewurztraminer at any time of day.
6. Rain gear at water polo practice is a must, no matter what the weather.
7. Being a aunt is awesome!
8. Unlike my preconceived notion, the Alamo is very small.
9. Politics hadn't hit rock bottom.
10. The blogging world, rocks! I CAN blog, people will read, and even be kind enough to comment!

I'm going to have to google Gewurztraminer. And if the Marines can't do something, it's not humanly possible. Good luck.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea what it is you can drink at any time of the day but it looks like something I'd want to partaketh in as well. Knitting? Hmph....whoda thunk. Christmas gifts should be easy....sweaters and scarves for everyone!
ReplyDeleteBeing an aunt IS awesome! I love to love on my nieces and then give them back to their parents when they throw tantrums. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteI had the exact same reaction to the Alamo. It just seems like it should be a lot bigger! Being an aunt and blogging are awesome.
ReplyDeleteI love blogging too! It is pretty awesome!
ReplyDeleteyes, it's hard to believe and also a bit terrifying that politics will likely get much, much worse, before they get better. can they even get better?
ReplyDeleteBut blogging...yes. That.
Ha ha, #3 is also true for non-mothers! ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love being an aunt. I spoil my nieces and nephews, much to my own children's chagrin.
ReplyDeleteThe Alamo is small? How disappointing. I felt the same way when I first saw the White House. It is surrounded by huge buildings and is really dwarfed by them.
What's not to love about blogging?!?!?
Short and sweet - I like your list (even if I don't agree with the Gewurztraminer, it gives me headaches... b.t.w. - did you know that Gewurztraminer is a southern German slang word for "nose"?)
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on #5. Love those German varietals...
ReplyDeleteI love blogging also! I'm jealous you can knit... especially more than the basics. I just can't get my hands coordinated enough.

The Alamo was the biggest disappointment ever. Seriously.
ReplyDelete#3 - unfortunately true. #10 - awesome! Great list!
ReplyDeleteYou have worried me with the teen love/Marine talk. Oy.
ReplyDeleteBut blogging I love, as well as being an aunt. Little jealous of your knitting. I have always wanted to do that. Ellen
#10- Amen to that! The community of bloggers I have me this year has been fabulously supportive and a great ego boost too!
ReplyDeleteYes indeed you CAN blog. And it's very much enjoyed!
ReplyDeleteAlamo is rather little ha? Hope your teen drama is nearing end.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of doing a list of what you learned in 2012. I might steal your idea and do something similar the last week of December....Hmmm. Do you make Resolutions at New Years?
