100th Post Part IV


76. I think people should say "Thank you" when you give them a compliment instead of denying it is true.

77. I think people should say "Thank you" when you open the door for them.

78. I have been known to say "Your welcome" (in a rude, not-so-much-under-my-breath-way) when the other person didn't say "Thank you."

79. I always regret doing that.

80. I love having a job that challenges me daily.

81. Except when I hate it.

82. I am a water snob.  Dasani and Aquafina taste like metal.  If I absolutely have to pay for it, I buy only Evian or Fiji.

83. Even Milly drinks only filtered water.

84.  I am trying to be "green" by recycling and not buying bottled water.

85.  The bag I take to the grocery store is more for looks than being "green."  I bought it in Paris, so I get a weekly reminder of our trip when I use it.

86.  I have eaten Food City brand bran flakes every morning for the last three months.  A box lasts for a little over a week and costs only $1.50.  

87.  I go to Wal-Mart and Food City every week for groceries.  Wal-Mart for non-perishables and Food City for fruit, veggies, and meat.

88.  If you see me at Wal-Mart with Toaster Strudels, Little Debbies and Pringles in my cart, know that is Andrew's food.  Most of mine is from Food City.

89.  I can't stand wasting even 10 minutes of class time.  

90.  Even though they might not admit it, I think most of my students appreciate this.

91.  If a student is rude or disrespectful, I make a concerted effort to forgive and forget so they can start fresh the next day.

92.  I wonder if what I do in the short five months I am with them has a lasting impact.

93.  I am thankful for meaningful relationships.  I am almost in tears thinking of how many people I am blessed to walk through life with.

94.  I would be embarrassed to count how many times I have said "I" in my last four posts.

95.  I worry about being narcissistic on my blog, but that is exactly what it is.

96.  Daily I ask God to increase my faith and eliminate my worrying.

97.  I am trying to complain less about things - even driving Big Blue.

98.  I can't wait to go on a date with my husband tonight.

99.  I have spent five minutes trying to decide how to end this four post series, and he is starving, so...

100.  The reason I like series posts is because it increases my stats!  How narcissistic is that?
