You know how WS's often think that maybe the grass is greener in someone else's yard? (Of course, they forget that's because they stopped tending to their yard long ago!)
And you know how we BS's often feel like shriveled up, brown, dead grass because we've been rejected? (Of course, that's because without any tending, it's hard to keep that green alive!)
I thought it might be nice if we reminded ourselves why the grass is greener in OUR yard than it is anywhere else!!

Because too much manure will kill grass.
Since the WS and the OP are full of SH*& the grass just can't grow with that much SH*& on it.

Wanna know something? The fact that you can make these lists about yourselves is why the grass is greener on your side-that is no small feat-self confidence ROCKS...A WS can't make such a list because they don't feel that way about themselves at all...Part of my journey has been realizing my self worth...I work on that daily...
CJ, your threads are always AWESOME...Add that to your list! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
And Frog, you are HILARIOUS...it's rare that I read one of your posts without laughing-definitely a list worthy trait! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

OKay, let me give it a shot:
The grass is greener on the other side because:
I am educated and love to learn new things.
I am compassionate.
I love to laugh
I love a changelle.
I am hard working.
I am a wonderfully dedicated mom.
I am honest.
I try my best to do what's right in every aspect on my life.
I have learned to respect myself.
I am wild at times and conservative at others.
I'm learning when to keep my mouth shut...Go figure sometimes it IS neccessary...LOL...who would have thought...
Or perhaps I should say in MY best interest...
I am learning to trust myself.
I can apologize when I realize that I am in the wrong.
I am caring.
I am stable...LOL
I am talented and unique.
I have a strong will to success in life.
I am open minded.
I am optimistic.
I love the outdoors.
I am a jack of all trades...LOL...master of NONE!
I LOVE power tools!
OKay...I could go on but I have to let something for you all to wonder about...LOL...
Personally, IMVHO, STBXH will never find anyone as good as I have been to him...JUST MY POV and I'm stickin to it!

Even on our worst day (bad hair and PMS)....we are still 1000% x better than the OP and WS. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> I love this analogy: Because too much manure will kill grass.

That is Italian for challenge. Just like Fragile is Italian. Pronounced Fra- gee- lee It means something that is delicate. It is all over moving boxes. Now you know. I stuck up for you S4B. LOL. Now you know Pep. We are bilingual and you aren't. Mrs. W thank you I will add that to my list. Sarcastic SOB. LOL Loving Thank you. It means a lot to me to see that instead of finding my bad points and focusing on them she sees the good.
