Hi guys, been gone a bit, but was reading Pam's Thanksgiving, shoes and 2005 model blogs and got me on a roll....THE GOOD AND BAD ABOUT ME...AS I SEE IT

1. I speak my mind moreso now, BUT sometimes I should keep my yap shut also still impatient at times when I'm tired...

2. I realize life can be fleeting more than most of the non stroker people know..now I'm glad for that insight....

3. I do not waste time ( mostly not as much, I'm still a work in progress)

4. I'm quicker to say "what the heck" with the kids more- esp if it involves something fun. (Bad mom,bad, bad mom. ) Say yes to far more sleepovers at my own house than I should- and become the pizza chef to a fault the DH just rolls his eyes when he walks in fromwork,knowing I'm a wuss...

5. See things for the long haul as more significant than before (get those holiday pics and pics with the folks while there is time and look at those solid schools for a good education- those sickening good lessons)

what I'd like to see disapeer from this mostly kinda stupid stroke---

1. the lackof control over my feelings--NO MORE emotional lability PERIOD

I am so sick of reapplying makeup Good feeling only need apply please!

2. NO MORE FEAR OF HEIGHTS I need to be able to ride thru the expressway of Milwaukee if I ever think I'd be able to live in Door Cty, Wisc---I hate how IT has become so rushy rushy beside going the other places that require driving over passes...

3. Being tired----I know I am a infrequent exerciser and maybe this would help---but I get tired from not sleeping but maybe I would sleep better if I exercised---the viscious cycle---but I am a sucker for letting other kiddie stuff come ahead of me

4. I still fallon my *** sometimes- if I'm stooping down---but compared to a while ago- other stuff has disapeered- so if this does eventually too that would be nice..but if not..I try to manage....
