What Element Is Your Love?

Your Love Element Is Fire

In love, you are a true listener and totally present.
For you, love is all about feeling more alive than you've ever felt.

You attract others with your joy and passion.
Your flirting style is defined by your strong ability to communicate.

Fun and play are the cornerstones of your love life.
And while your flame may burn too brightly, it's part of your appeal.

You connect best with: Wood

Avoid: Water

You and another Fire element: will likely burn out quickly

On the road pet peeves. . .
As I was traveling home to Missouri for the holidays, I am reminded once again of the "fun" of driving with people who lack the common sense needed to be on the road.
  • Joggers / Bicycle Riders - I applaud your need for exercise to keep yourself fit or even to get you where you need to go. However, here's a couple of things to keep in mind. If you are jogging, you run in the opposite direction of traffic, so that you can watch oncoming cars and avoid accidents. Remember the car is bigger and tougher than you are. If you are on a bicycle, stay in your lane or please have the courtesy to move over when you are biking with your buddies. I know you have a right to the road too, but causing a traffic jam will not earn you brownie points. To joggers & bicyclists both, for crying out loud when you are out at night wear something bright so I can see you. I almost didn't some crazy nut tonight that was jogging wearing all black!
  • Left Lane Slow Pokes - did you know that it's a law to be in the right lane if you're driving below the speed limit? Also for those stretch of highways that have a second lane at certain locations - pull the heck over to that lane so I can get around. Geez!
  • No Signal Light - I realize that phone call you are making on your cell phone is "important" but learn how to use that all important signal light. If you're not on your phone, there is no reason not to use that signal light whatsoever. It's there for a reason folks!
  • Cruise - Don't you just love being behind some nut that doesn't know what cruise control is? It's rather simple to use and saves on using the brake for those behind you. Pick a speed and keep it!
  • Brake Happy People - Why are some people in love with their brakes? Old or young it doesn't seem to matter.
  • There Are Mirrors?? - Yes, there are. Use them the next time you want to switch lanes or back up, please!
  • Turning Onto Another Road - Don't ya just love those nuts that just have to pull out in front of you and then slow way down. Thanks a lot there buddy!!!

Well, I feel better. I'm sure I've left some people out, but this is a start. LOL

Try to do better / New Year's Resolution. . .
I know I've been a little lazy about posting on my blog this month. The company I work for had a big move to a brand new building....and was that ever fun...not! LOL Then I turned right around and went home for the holidays to Missouri.
Going home is always fun for me no matter what time of year. Have you never noticed that when you move and return home you're more popular than when you lived there? Everyone wants to do something - breakfast/lunch/dinner/etc. Unfortunately, there's only so many hours in the day and I'm unable to see or visit with everyone.
Thanks to Drywall Mom for checking up on me when I got behind in posting. This coming year I will try to write at least 2-3 postings a week. May be short & sweet or rather long. You'll have to stop by & see. If you have a suggestion on what you'd like me to write, drop me a note. I can't guarantee I'll answer everything, but I'll try.
Hope everyone has a wonderful & safe new year!

Tunnel Vision Shoppers. . .
No matter where you go there they are...the tunnel vision shoppers. You know the ones I mean, that "lovely" person or persons that are right at the spot you need to be when shopping, and they will not even acknowledge that you are there so you can grab what you want & go. Do I need a neon sign for you to see me? Some bells & whistles to announce my presence? Even when I say excuse me I'm ignored!!! So frustrating!! I swear one of these days I'm going to walk right up to the a-holes and say "get the f#$@ out of the way!" Well, I certainly feel better. . .thanks for listening!
