Perfectly perfect in my imperfections

deb and perfectI can take a four hour nap, get up for one hour and then go to bed – and sleep all night.

If left to my own devices, I could live on peanut butter and crackers, Melaleuca protein bars and coffee.

I don’t smoke.

Careful, I’m taking your picture.  I do that a lot.

I’m doing the very best I can.

Don’t ask me what I think if you really don’t want to know.  Because I will tell you.

I have developed the skill of disappearing into the night.  Saying goodbye can be overrated.

I do dishes when I feel like it.

My closet extends to my chair.

I get up at Oh God Thirty.  And like it.

I talk too much, and listen a lot.  That’s how I learn.

I drop the F bomb, frequently.

My dreams are starting to come true.

I believe there’s greatness in everyone.

I remember I’m a geek.

Much adversity has run amuck in my life.  I rolled with the flow.

I am as strong, smart, capable, intelligent, loving and wise as I believe I am.

I’m the luckiest girl in the world.
