What's that go to do with anything?

I have so much to say that it's time for a list.

1. In regards to my previous post, I heard more horrible things said about foreigners. What gets me the most, is that so many Americans assume we have the right idea about everything. How do they think that our way is the right way? Other nation's have better healthcare, Europe together has an awesome railway system, student perform better in other countries, so what makes anyone have the right to say say "Well, they're in a America now so they better..." Unless it's against the law, what right?

2. I've decided not to talk at work anymore. If I need to ask a question or someone speaks to me first, I'll speak.

3. I hate menstruating. I want my uterus removed. I will not be having children and don't need it.

4. I think back to my childhood, teenage years, and early twenties, and I was always looking for someone to save me, if not save me, find something special about me and groom me for greatness. Well at least for normalcy.

5. I don't feel like I fit in most of the time. I always sort of feel on the fringe of things.

6. I have made no close friends since I moved to this area over two years ago.

7. I keep wondering what is wrong with me. Why do I turn people off from being my friend... I don't come up with any answers.

8. I should not be allowed near ovens. I've burned myself more times in the past month than all the months combined.

9. I am scared of power saws. If I can't stay safe near an oven, imagine a power saw.

10. I want to work for a non-profit helping people or a government agency in the social services department.

11. I would like to start a non-profit that assists people who's spouses, family members, have cancer and help out with laundry, lawn care, grocery shopping, all the things I couldn't or wouldn't do when Eric was in Mayo. That's what help I could have used and perhaps others are in the same boat.

12. Not sure how to go about doing this though.

13. I've been feeling hideous lately.

14. I play Wii tennis for shit.

15. I like bowling and I have a word game that is fun.

16. We want a futon. We have plans for our second bedroom upstairs and the requires moving the bed out and getting a futon.

18. I also want a file cabinet.

19. I like volunteering, but I hate having commitments. If I could just drop in somewhere and do something now and again that'd be awesome.

20. Do-it-yourself home improvement projects are harder than they look.

That's a mighty Fine list!

i especially identify with being on the fringe....

totally opposite in that i Love a good power saw!

If you want to get rid of your fear of saws - The thing to get used to first is just Turning One ON (she said! heh heh heh)either a small cheap jigsaw or a chop saw....and the first thing you do is (just be sure you are being hovered over by an experienced saw user)
1st thing is pull the trigger/start the saw without cutting anything....once you do that and get used to it...you shouldn't be scared anymore.
