Taking the challange

Haley-o from http://cheatymonkey.com/ took the challange of listing 5 positive things about herself and then put the challange out to her readers. This challange couldn't have come at a better time since I am feeling kinda like crap today. So here it goes...Five positive things about myself...this is hard.
1) I usually have a good sense of humor. I can laugh at myself and others(not in a mean way) easily..I find humor in most things.
2) I am loving...I love to love. I am a lover not a hater.
3) I have a high tolerance...most of the time...this is usually a good thing.
4) I can change diapers really, really fast and I'm good at it! And this is a good thing because most days I change diapers on 3 kids and that doesn't include my job at the daycare. No, seriously, I can do lots of things really, really fast. Most likely because I have to be!
5) I'm a good listener...most of the time...except when the little people are whining, screaming and fighting, then I have learned to tune that out...not so good sometimes.

I guess that wasn't so hard...sure made me think though. It is so much easier for me to list the positives in others than in myself. Now I put this challange out to you...What are five positive things about yourself? It would be great if you shared them with me!

Great list, Lor! Isn't it healing? Felt great.... And, I wish I was better at changing diapers these days -- my little Rascal insists on turning onto his tummy mid-change, making diaper changing next to IMPOSSIBLE and, at the very least, SLOWWWW! ;)

That is a great list! My kiddo hates getting his diaper changes we battle that so I envy you that you are good at it:)

my little grandson doesn't like getting his changed but i don't let him be the boss. i just lay him down and start talking about something totally different and he seems to ignore the fact that we are changing his pants.
#1 i am a pretty happy person. take life as it is given to me and do what i can to change it into what i want.
#2 i like to give advice, like my dad, only not to be as critical.
#3 i'm an easy going grandma when it comes to grandchildren. i love them dearly and love each and every minute i have with them.
#4 i'm a hard worker, i believe it is what one can do themselves makes you appreciate what you have.
#5 i am a people person. i enjoy talking to people and enjoy learning and listening to what people do with their lives and how they live their life.
i don't know if i exactly took the challange but anyway let you know 5 positive things i think about myself. have a great 4th of july. i'll be packing dirt with a packer we rented for the weekend. you drive it so it may not be so bad. kinda fun. looks like it's going to be a warm weekend.....enjoy
