Life Lessons for Special People Like Meeeee

So, the last few weeks have provided me with plenty of chances for learning opportunities. Being an open person, I figured I'd share the wealth, in case anyone else wants to learn along with me.

Let the learning...begin!!

--A clove of garlic is not the entire big piece. Yeah, I may be the only person on earth who didn't know that. haha. It's one of those little slices in the bunch, within the whole piece. Luckily, this lesson came via intervention from my boyfriend while I was cooking, or else it would have been a hot dinner mess.

--YOU can be MacGuyver, in a fun way! The other night, my car lock was totally frozen. I couldn't get the key to turn in the lock. So I took a garbage bag from the women's restroom, filled it with hot water, and pressed the bag against the lock for a couple of minutes. Voila, it melted the ice inside the lock and I was able to get in. Yet another brill idea brought to you by my boyfriend, and the letter Foxy.

--New puppies can hold more than their body weight in waste material. You wouldn't think it possible, but I hypothesize a pair of 3-pound puppies poop and pee more than a grown man. I got two doxie puppies a couple of weeks ago and I love them so much, but OMG the steam cleaning I've had to do in my house...sigh.

--Commercials and daytime television SUCK. Being home during the day to work, I turn on the TV for background noise. Apparently, the only other people watching TV during the day are the elderly (life alert rox!), the jobless (get cash today!), the incapacitated (come to our law firm and get justice now now now!!!), and people who like Whoopi Goldberg. I am none of those. Where the crap are good shows??? This is why I live off Netflix.

Anyway, life is fun. I'm writing, editing, teaching, and keeping myself busy. Hope your life is going well! And if you have a fun life lesson to share, please post it here. :D
