1. You can never have enough paper towels when pet sitting for 10 puppies. NEVER!
2. No matter how tired you are, how hot, how sweaty, how sad, kisses from 10 puppies, 1 golden retriever and my dog tribe will cheer me up in about 10 seconds!
3. If you stop drinking regular soda and drink diet soda and water, you will lose weight.
4. Nothing feels as good as a hot shower after cleaning up after 10 puppies!
5. When someone tells you that you have disappointed them, it stinks. No matter how they say it or how they spin it. It stinks. Period.
6. Sometimes you just have to go out for Bojangles at lunch with a friend.
7. Applying for a new job is scary and kind of exciting! :-) Especially one that seems like it was made just for you.
8. You gotta have friends.
9. And sometimes, you have to stop pretending to be fine and just ask your friends for a shoulder.
10. At the end of day, it doesn't matter how much money you have made, how many things you have screwed up or done right, who you have impressed or failed to impress, how many things that you have or how much work you have done. What matters is that you can say that someone, anyone, loves you. For you.
And I think that (#10) is the most important thing I have remembered this week. Because that isn't something that I learned. I always knew it. But sometimes, it stays buried under so many layers of things like exhaustion, disappointment, resentment, self loathing, anger, jealousy, selfishness, grudges, (add your own here) that we forget. But as long as we can remember than we will be ok.
