So, after much deliberation I have picked my ONE WORD!

SAVOR
Verb

1. to recieve or derive pleasure from; get ejoyment from; take pleasure in
2. to appreciate and enjoy fully
3. to give oneself over to the enjoyment of
4. taste appreciatively

Synonyms: appreciate, bask in, delight in, esperience, feel, luxuriate in, relish, revel in

My favorite out of all those is "bask" - synonyms for bask include: delight, drive pleasure, enjoy, indulge, revel, rollick, take comfort, take pleasure.

These days my life just seems to fly by without me really taking any of it in. I'm tired of it! I'm sick and tired of feeling like my life is boring and unremarkable unless somethin big is happening. THE SIMPLE ACT OF LIVING IS BIG!
That is what I'm hoping to catch this next year. Savoring every moment and event, big or small, "significant" or otherwise. I'm trying to see my life as interesting.
So I'm going to SAVOR...

I'm not sure why, but giraffes make me laugh. Not polite giggling, not small tittering, but hysterical laughter. I think it has something to do with the movie Madagascar. David Schwimmer playing the voice of the giraffe just kills me. I'm sure it didn't do anything for his image to play a hyprochondriac giraffe, but I think it's hysterical!
Anyway, just a little something about me that not many people don't know. Have a great night.

I've been reading alot of other blogs and keep coming across this, so I thought I'd do it on mine every once in a while, on different subjects: Today its about me and my quirks. Enjoy.

I don’t like white chocolate

I love the sunshine and being warm. I could live somewhere where it didn’t get below 78 degrees very easily

I can’t ever seem to get my library books back on time

I HATE, ABHOR AND DETEST cleaning bathrooms

A little snack baggie of walnuts and chocolate chips is my go-to snack for blogging

If I could I would travel ALL the time

I like hiking DOWN things, not up. For example, the Grand Canyon, you hike down it. Yes, I know you have to hike back up, but you hike down first.

I don’t know how to ski

I am a very good swimmer, but I don’t like to put my head underwater.

I am the queen of useless pieces of information. For example: Crickets and Katydids have their ears on their elbows, but Locust have them on their abdomen. And: MTV first debuted in 1981
