46 Hours in the land of the Loops

What fun I've had these last couple of days! But in with the fun was mixed some lessons...which I would like to share with you now

~It doesn't matter how long in between visits, or how you met, any time spent with good friends will result in good memories
~At a very late (or early) hour "A bowl of sugar" sounds an awful lot like "A Polish hooker"
~Never underestimate the power of a woman or girl (lesson from True Grit)
~It is always a safer idea to use the word 'gender' rather than 'sex' in phrases such as "I made this team for sex" and "I made this team because of sex" (also it may be a good idea just to stop after the first one rather than continue attempts! ;) )
~'The Marines' are the "Army guys that swim"
~A little bit of laughter always goes a long way
~Shirts/Ties are the male equivalent to Shoes...and shopping for them (even for 2 hours) can be an absolute blast
~You never know what's going to happen tomorrow, so don't put things off. Do it now. Live each day like it's the most important day of your life, and never regret.
~The decision to buy pickles is not always a sound financial decision ;)
~Sometimes the simplest comment/compliment can make someone's day, so don't hold back
~Often the journey to get somewhere can be just as much fun as the arrival at/carrying out of the activity
~It is a great feeling to feel loved.
~It is possible for me to be coached through using a breadmaker
~Rook is a lot easier and more fun than I remember it
~If you are ever looking for some entertainment watch 2 guys coaching each other in wrestling moves while carrying them out in slow motion with a running commentary
~Brian Reagan is a very funny man
~Only lean over someone's shoulder to watch something when someone else does not have their arm around them...you may run the risk of getting punched in the face
~There are not many sounds that compete with a toddler's laugh in the world of awesomeness
~It pays to shop at Walmart sometimes, because you may run into people you haven't seen in a long time. Tonight I saw one of my favourite High School teachers there, and met her son for the first time...what a wonderful thing it was to hear her called "mom"!
~Sometimes it feels great to just let go of the past and do something you never thought you'd do...stop fighting your own mind!
~Remember the little things...because you never know when the recollection of that memory will help you through a tough situation
~There is little that is more important than taking the time to make a child feel special
~Never keep your love to yourself...because you will feel better when you share it!
*"I shall give love to those in need, I show that love by word and deed"*

A lot of lessons learned and reminded about in a short amount of time...but each one carries with it a memory that I will treasure forever and ever. Thank you all for taking the time to include me. I feel very blessed to have you all in my life
<3 Me
