My BWF is having a hissy fit over the fact that I don’t post something every day, so I decided today would be the day for posting. I mean, I’ve got to shut her up somehow!! It is hard for her to understand what my busy life is like since she doesn’t have one. Like yesterday…I got off work, went to the gym for an abbreviated workout (something is better than nothing, right?!), went to Publix, stopped by the in-laws and took a shower and was at the NGU Crusade by 7:00. I got home late, did laundry, unloaded and loaded the dishwasher, cleaned the kitchen, cut coupons for my trip to Publix again today and then went to bed. I mean, really, when was there time to post anything?!? D’s evening consisted of getting off work, going to get something to eat with her hubby and going home. If I had a life like that, sure I could post every day. Sorry, D. That isn’t me!!
I did, however, think of something for this post, and I managed to jot down a few things in the Notes section of my new iPhone. Now, before you read this, please don’t think that this is any kind of pity party. I am not whining. The things that will be mentioned are part of what makes me unique. I’m not complaining…I’m sharing.
I know that God created us all in a very unique way, and we all have things that set us apart from others. I’m not talking personality…I’m talking physical appearance. I don’t know about y’all, but I feel like I have a lot of these unique aspects. Some of these I was blessed with at birth, and some I have earned along the way. Most all of them have been the source of much laughter and discussion over the years, and I’m ok with that.
Here is a list of some of those Unique Physical Aspects that I could think of…
I have one flat foot, and one with an arch (thanks, Mom and Dad!),
A bald spot in my hair line,
A tiny eye,
A bum knee (with scars from surgery),
A bum ankle - thanks to my flat foot (surgery scar there too),
Crooked toes (thanks to a big ole girl in a softball game),
Boney knees,
Boney elbows (the cause of a lot of heartache and money during the winter months),
Connected ears,
Tiny wrists
Well, that’s all I’ve got for now. Feel free to share any that you may have. I’d love to know that there are others out there with stuff like this too.
Did you forget about my 2nd shift job?!? Let me just say I can't wait to get to work tomorrow to hear our new sound!! I'm soooo excited :)
ReplyDeleteBTW, from now on I'm anonymous!! You still need to hire a good IT/IS employee :)
ReplyDeleteA scar on my forehead from when I went head first into a fireplace when I was little - but playing on the bouncy ball was worth it.
ReplyDeleteBum knee from my new ACL and repaired meniscus (thank you vball in Afghanistan).
Skinny big toe nails (thanks to genetically acquired ingrowns that I had permanently removed)
I too have a bald spot in my hairline - bad part is I can't see it to fix it!!
Everything cracks... toes, knees, knuckles, back, neck... the doctor tells me it is OK b/c it is just air releasing...
Flat feet - thanks mom
Chunky belly... no matter how hard I work at it (thanks mom and gma :))
And the finale...Monkey toes... I can pick-up anything with my feet!
Thanks, Jaime!! See, I already feel like I know so much more about you! We've been FB BFF for years, but I never knew all that!!
ReplyDeleteI too have a bald spot (that my hubby likes to point out) I can't honestly see it... but I can feel it sometimes.
ReplyDeleteI too have ear lobes that connect. (they go straight across and are very tiny at that!)
In the 7th grade my science teacher pointed them out to show everyone since no one else had them or really knew they could be that way.
I have a bum knee too, makes me feel 80 somedays!
I have big hands, Thanks to my dad!
My toes pop all the time!!
and you gotta love the fact that I am 25 and still have freckles...
