Back to the blog

It's about time for me to spread my wings and take 5 minutes to write on my blog. I have been hesitant to do this becaus eI am on the computer so much and don't need one more reasn to sit here and write...but I keep reading my best friend's blog and it's so cool and I always think of things to write after reading hers, so we'll see.
My 9 year old yesterday asked me to tell him things he shouldn't do when he grows up. ALl I could think of was "wear a condom unless your ready to have kids" but I didn't think he was quite ready to hear that yet. SO, I went with the safe, don't smoke, don't drink and drive, and don't ever stop exercising. But he said he already knew all that and could I tell him something he didn't already know?

Any ideas are welcome. What things have you done that you would advise a younger person not to do when they grow up? Here's my 10:

1. Don't move away from your home town.
2. Don't live in the same town all your life.
3. Don't pick your profession because you think you will make lots of money.
4. Don't spend your money before you have it.
5. Don't marry for money.
6. Don't give up on your dreams.
7. Don't follow the crowd.
8. Don't keep your feelings inside.
9. Don't forget to smell the roses.
10. Don't loose your sense of fun and sense of humor.

Well there you have it.
