What did you learn today? Part II

I learned how to say "NO" and not feeling bad about it, or questioning my judgement....2 friends were invited over for Easter dinner...they accepted...then called to say they didn't have a way to come over (they live about 15 miles from me)..and wanted me to come pick them up....welllll. I am busy with all the cooking and such...but relented, and said "as long as you pay for my gas to get there and take you back home...."

They felt "insulted"....(say what?)....Gas here is $3.74/gallon....she said "I've already made 2 dishes for the dinner"....(but she was asked to bring something).... so I said "I'm sorry!...we will miss you at the dinner."....


Will you please mail me some gas?! Paid $4.79
 
I learned that my son's favorite meat is corned beef. Who knew?
 
I learned today that our church youth minister has accepted a position in Clovis, New Mexico. That's going to be interesting for him and his family I am sure. NM is very different from AR.
 
I also just learned we are under Tornado warning AGAIN. UGH.

I learned how to buy itunes for the ipod. I learned how to delete music and videos manually from the ipod.
 
I learned the colors that are associated with the North South East and West directions in Native American spiritual ceremonies, thanks to Bebonang.
 
Learned that my brother joined the army. Not sure if it's any better than jail time. I won't be seeing him for a very long time.

I'm having mixed feelings about it.

It could be good for him, but only time will tell. All the best.

He had no choice. I'd rather him stay in jail so that I know he's okay and still near my home in California than have him in the front line. He could possibly get killed by a random grenade. :(
