The End of 2012
The end of 2012 has finally come and I am sure I should be reflective but I would really like to forget and move on but here we go........12 things I have learned it 2012.
1) You can't help people but I will continue to try but will be alot pickier.
2) If I ever need to hide a body I know who I can count on to help me with no questions asked.
3) If you want to play the work game you have to play a social game.
4) I am not as tough as I used to be when it comes to pain
5) Turning 40 is not pretty and turning 44 was even uglier.
6) I need a shower especially when I think I can't have one.
7) I could enjoy being rich, I think I knew that, but it is confirmed.
8) When confronted I will fight not flight. You would think I would have outgrown that with a more mature response.
9) I love musicals and saw Les Miserables twice, who knew.
10) I enjoy marking things off my made up bucket list. Movie on Christmas Day check. Surfing in Hawaii, still on the list!
11) Life is shorter than I imagined.
12) Bring it on 2013

Week 40 - The no picture Thanksgiving
I love my camera and I love taking pictures. I do not love taking pictures of people who go above and beyond out of their way to not have their picture made. So, I put up the camera and gave myself a break and did not take any pictures. It is much less stressful for me.
What I wish I could explain is it is not about double chins, weight, or any list of excuses people have for fighting pictures. It's about memories. Remember the TG we all stood outside when it was 30 degrees. No one will say look at my (fill in the blank). Some days we will look back when someone had died and say, awwwwwww there is (fill in the blank), or look there is that tree that died and we used to climb. I cannot tell you how many funerals we attend and we see a picture we took in that slide show, usually it is the only one in focus and taken at a special occasion. When that photo comes up we can talk about the event and our memory of the person. The memory becomes even greater and more special and a way to help the living grief. It is never about double chins, weight, saggy, baggy or suck it in but I seem to never be able to explain that to people.
