6 through 10

I know I previously said I was going to complete this list during my "Truthful Tuesdays", but I find myself in that annoying child-like mindset of 'Do I go to bed because I'm tired, or slum around on the computer for a little while longer?'

Which do you think I chose?

6: Something you hope you never have to do. 

Clean out the food trap from the dishwasher with my bare hands.

Ugh. Just thinking about it makes me gag. 

When I lived with my sister she hated that I would never clean it out because I was thoroughly disgusted by even the thought of digging out mushy, cold, wet food out of the dishwasher.

I'll be the first to admit that this is ridiculous. I've raised a small child for the past 3 years and have touched worse things than soggy food, but I just can't do it. No thank you, sir.

 7: Someone who has made your life worth living for. 

Total given: Mia

She is my everything. I know I've said it over and over, but every little thing I do affects her. I am responsible for her upbringing and very important decisions in her young life that will have a huge impact on her for the rest of her life. 

 8: Someone who made your life hell, or treated you like poopy. 

I've been very fortunate to have very few people make my life a living hell. 

Honestly those people who, I thought, made my life hell, I didn't even know. When I worked for my last job in Salt Lake, I volunteered to be a temporary supervisor for a period of time that was our busiest time of year. This was the first inbound call center job I had ever experienced and I really loved it. Except when it came to dealing with the IRS and people's tax-free money and benefits and other important subjects that made the person on the other end of the phone your number one priority in that 20 minute span of a phone call. 

Oh, boy. I had some CRAZY people come across my line.

Would I go back to it? Absolutely. If I didn't have the solution for them at that moment, I would find it for them or get someone who had the solution to help them.

 9: Someone you didn’t want to let go, but just drifted. 

I really don't think I have anyone in my life that has just drifted away. There had to be a purpose that we were no longer friends. I make it a priority to keep my close friends close. If I feel that we're drifting apart, in any way, I'll be the first to jump and contact that person.

I believe that there are lengths of time during a friendship that can have some sort of void, but can be picked right back up over a phone conversation or an email.

(I use those comparisons because all of my close friends live 1800 miles away from me, and having lunch, hanging out at a girlfriend's house or meeting up for drinks isn't as easy as it used to be)

 10: Someone you need to let go, or wish you didn’t know. 

Oh wow.

This is a really hard confession. 

I honestly believe I've let go of the person that I've needed to, but I would never say that I wish I hadn't ever met this person. Because of the role this person played, I know we were meant to meet, be together for a short period of time and part ways.
