Life Lessons - Some Learned the Hard Way

I was reflecting on some lessons I've learned over the years and decided to share them with you in the hopes it will bring a smile and maybe keep you from experiencing some of these unfortunate things. :) Enjoy!!

You shouldn't open the car door and get out while the car is still moving (road rash is painful)

Moms don't appreciate your artwork when it is on their furniture

The suction in mud puddles will hold your boots in, even if you keep moving

Your little sister's diaper is not a good storage spot for gravel (you will get spanked)

If a little boy asks you if you want to see something special - he isn't talking about a toy truck, so say "no!"

Jr. High girls are mean

Bullies will be bullies whether you deserve it or not

Breathing in too much sulfur fumes at Yellowstone can make you sick and it's best if you don't sleep next to someone with long hair

Always stop for very old dogs on one lane, snow-packed roads

Racing bicycles on loose gravel is a bad idea

Trust me, you'll know when you can no longer do carnival rides that go in circles

It's time to take the Tom Selleck poster down when you can't change clothes in your room 'cause he's looking at you

Do not believe your older brother when he tells you he turned off the electric fence

Peas don't taste any better after they've sat there for an hour so you might as well eat them

In college, beware of care packages from unknown sources

At the movie theater, you should note carefully where you were sitting if you have to leave and come back in

At the movie theater, you can't see "watch your step" signs in the dark

Avoid driving on black ice, or walking on it

Always scrape the ice off your back-window before backing up

Orange puke on white carpet leaves a stain

While changing clothes and your mom calls you to the phone, don't assume there is no company in the house

Dare-base can crack your wrist

Jumping on the ice is not a good way to test if it will hold you

Don't tickle people when they are hanging upside down - no matter how tempting it is

"no one will find out" means "DON'T DO IT YOUR GONNA GET IN TROUBLE!"

until next time -
...and the greatest of these is love
