Continued

Okay so blogger sucks and cut me off in the middle of my last post about the letter H. So I didn't spell check it sorry. But here are the last three H's that describe me!

Huggy: Okay so huggy isn't a "real" word but I love to hug and to receive hugs. My son thinks he is getting too old for these but little does he know no one is told old to hug. My students in Elem. love to run up and give me hugs and it totally makes all the B.S .I go through daily with my job, well worth it!!!

Hedonistic: I love big words, or as my dad says "$2 words with a 50 cent meaning!"With the stress that I am under daily with my job, and my dysfunctional extended family. I tend to become hedonistic, or self-indulgent as a way to not go insane. Since Social Workers don't get paid squat in the school setting I tend to turn to food as an indulgence instead of taking the well deserved Sandals vacation I can't afford. If you don't believe me about the food indulgence, my ass has recently been given its own zip code!!

Harried: Most of the time I am running around crazily trying to get everyone else's needs met that I neglect certain things for myself, like ummmm... working out, eating healthy, not drinking 4 diet cokes a day, sleeping enough, studying, praying. But I guess all of this just makes me HUMAN...ha ha I got another H word in there without it counting toward my 10 words!!! Your turn.

"H" my letter is!!!!!

My pal Pickalish has challenged me to 1) blog again, I know I am a slacker! 2) come up with 10 things that describe me, that start with the letter H. If you want to play along leave a comment and I will give you a letter of your own!

Humorous: I would have said hilarious, but I am too humble...hee hee another H word. But those of you who know me, know I am not humble! But my sense of humor and making jokes to ease the tension around me has become a coping mechanism that everyone seems to enjoy. Laugh or Cry right???

Hot Tempered: I grew up in a very "vocal" Norwegian family and have gotten better at controlling my temper, but my first knee jerk reaction is to get angry. This has been very challenging as single parent!! I really have to make a conscious effort to not give into this darker side of my personality. I like to use the word "passionate" better but it doesn't start with "H"

Honest: Sometimes brutally so, but I enjoy people that cut to the chase so you really know where you stand with them. I am not so sure those around me always appreciate my honesty! I just always say don't ask me a question that you really don't want the answer to!

Helpful: I will do about anything for others, especially my family and friends. All they have to do is ask, and believe me my family asks, and asks!!!! Gotta love 'em! I think this is one of the reasons I am in the profession that I am in! Geee ya think?!

Head Strong: I am sure my mother would say AMEN to this one! But you know what, Iam usually right!!! If I do say so myself! WhenI know that I am right, you are not going to change my mind. But I am open minded enough to let others have their own opinion (even if they are totally wrong!!!! hee hee). Unfortunately for me, my son has this same disposition, think my mom wished that one me!

Harsh: I am especially harsh on myself and have a hard time forgiving myself for things I have done and some I continue to do. I never feel good enough in certain areas of my life. I am my own worst enemy and have to watch myself so I don't judge others with the unrealistic standards I hold for myself!

Hesitant: While I am quick to anger and quick to judge, I am hesitant to trust and hesitant to let people know the real me. I am hesitant to give my heart to another man in fear of it getting crushed again. I am hesitant to let my son spread his wings based on my fears and things that have happened to ME at his age! I am hesitant to change as well.
