Everyone in life has AT LEAST one LIFE SKILL!
Everyone in life has at least ONE life skill. It doesn't have to be anything big - just one skill that they do very well. Some people a really good at being "simple" . Think of what that takes - one has to be able to completely turn off their brain cells, "shut down" as it were - and go boldly into the world knowing that the others are not as simple as you. Then there is eavesdropping - we all have someone we know who has this as their life skill. Someone who, when you are on the phone - hovers by your doorway and pretends to read what is in their hand - and when you stop your conversation to ask what they would like - they just say - "It's okay...finish your phone call, I'll just wait!" NO YOU WON'T! Because you will stand there and listen to every word that I say and then you will no way to much about me and I will have to kill you. Plus - what you needed to discuss with me? Well - you have forgotten it by now - and all you will do is have an insignificant conversation with me about the brand of Q-tips you like to use - or what you saw growing along the side of the sidewalk this morning. Then there are the "organizers" - you may just see these people as being bossy. But in fact - if it wasn't for the organizers - we'd all be running around in lederhosen not having a clue where we are supposed to be and how we are to get there. Then there is the person who is great at finding presnts, whether for Christmas, a birthday, or just because. You know the type - the ones that always have suggestions like - "A bottle of Champaign and some Oysters would be nice"! "Or how about a flight over the Bermuda Triangle - that would be so perfect!" How about a person who can drive without looking..............there are many of these people out there. You know the type - they have the cel phone stuck to one ear - with a smoke between their fingers, and they are drinking a Tim Horton's coffee with the other hand - while trying to turn down the radio, and pick up the lighter they just dropped on the floor of their car. Now THAT's a life skill we'd all love to have! My life skill you ask? Well I believe that it is thinking too much.....there are too many things to think about - and I just can't seem to absorb enough during my waking hours - so I must keep thinking through the night - while the cats are out there stalking their prey - and the milk man is starting his run...........wait - we don't have a milk man. My BIG thought for the day is: Why don't they make chocolate marshmallows anymore? They used to. I remember being able to buy bags of chocolate marshmallows - just like the white puffy ones you buy now. I know they have the "flavoured" ones that come in a variety of colours - but in those bags - you may only get one or two chocolate marshmallows. Maybe someone can let me know - so I can strike this one off of my "Things to Think About List". Cheers! DIZ

Remember when you got a bag of chips when you were young and there was a littel blue bag in them with the salt?
