love/hate

I love my job
I hate that I am not always as ambitious as I should be

I love Christmas shopping
I hate shopping at Walmart

I love people watching
I hate to see people who wear their misery on their face

I love receiving really thoughtful Christmas gifts
I hate that I am not more thoughtful when picking out gifts

I love my church
I hate that I’m gone so often on the weekends

I love a good Christmas party
I hate when I leave earlier than I really want to just so I can get some rest (I can sleep when I’m dead!)

I love that I have such a good life
I hate when I wish my days away without living in the present

I love it when I get to that point where I’m tired of party food and want some normal food (or NO food)
I hate it when my Christmas tree falls over

I love it when I get a Saturday to just hang out around the house
I hate that I procrastinate so much about doing things around the house

I love finding a great author I’ve never read before
I hate that I’m not more well-read

I love laughing so hard I cry
I hate when I really want to cry but I can’t

I love that Christmas brings communities together
I hate all the PC “Happy Holidays” business

I love anticipation of a new year
I hate that I didn’t stick to all of last year’s resolutions and I have to start over

I love it when you post like this. The creative mind that I don't have. You'd think you were an English major or at least an assistant teacher in a creative writing class. What would I give to have a bit of that brain? I guess I can hope and pray for it in my kid though.
