Snowflake challenge day 8

[turps]

Day 8 In your own space, make a list of at least 3 things that you like about yourself. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

I can laugh at myself and often do. I do, say and like ridiculous things at times. And that's just fine.

I said this last year too, but it still stands. I like what I like, and don't care if anyone judges me for that.

Finally, I like my saggy belly and my bingo wings and my collar bones that are starting to emerge. Because they may not be what the media says is perfect, but to me they're evidence of a successful hard decision and a lot of work.

Before I forget yet again. Thank you to sperrywink, msktrnanny and eledhwenlin for the holiday cards. They may have been the tail ends, but they were all very much enjoyed.

It's been a nice day today, cold but sunny so I've been out for a short walk, and a long conversation with one of our neighbours and his dog. Visited mam, washed, dried and put away a load of clothes and finished off the last of the Christmas fresh veggies by making a carrot and parsnip curry soup. I also made a batch of that yesterday which was delicious, but does mean I'll have loads of the stuff to eat in the next few days.

I also started to read the popslash christmas exchange stories and can highly recommend Let Nothing You Dismay by brandywine which was very funny and perfect for a Christmas story. Also, has some of the best visual images ever!

Now I'm off to write some more drabbles. Or double drabbles. Or even triple. The sky's the limit, really.

You go!! You should like all those things about yourself. They are wonderful, as are you in whole or part. *g*

You're welcome!!

Have fun drabbling!

[turps]

Thank you! ♥

Drabbling was interrupted by bath time, and now I should make tea I suppose. There's always something!

[pensnest]

I like your confidence. I like your pride in what you're achieving. Good for you!

[turps]

Thank you so much!

What a lovely, lovely list ♥ I'm smiling away, reading it.

[turps]

Thank you. It was nice to think about.

[turlough]

Your list is wonderful and they're all things about you I like too.

Cold, sunny days are so nice. That soup sounds delicious. And you could always put it in the freezer? Most soups are excellent for freezing.

Good luck with the writing!

[turps]

Thank you so much ♥

I did freeze the soup, so thanks for that suggestion. No way would I have eaten it in time before it went off.

[turlough]

I'm glad I could be of help. (I'm a great believer in freezing stuff. I would hate having to cook every day but batch cooking is just fun.)

[dylan_mx]

Yeah! Don't let others ruin your love for yourself and keep being awesome!

[turps]

Thank you!

Your list is different than Turlough's, but I'm going to say the same thing that I said there: those sound like qualities that go a long way toward building up overall happiness. Go you!

Also, sounds like a very productive day!

[turps]

It was a very productive day.

those sound like qualities that go a long way toward building up overall happiness.

You're right, they do. I've spent a long time fighting against myself, and it feels great that I don't do that any more.

Lovely list of things you like about yourself. <3

[turps]

Thank you ♥

I like what I like, and don't care if anyone judges me for that.
Perfect.

[turps]

I wish everyone could feel that way.

But I suspect most get there eventually.
