Every Woman Should Have ...

For my Storm2K sisters

Every Woman Should Have ...

One old love she can imagine going back to and one who reminds her how far she has come.

Enough money within her control to move out and rent a place of her own even if she never wants to or needs to.

Something perfect to wear if the employer or date of her dreams wants to see her in an hour.

A purse, a suitcase, and an umbrella she's not ashamed to be seen carrying.

A youth she's content to move beyond.

A past juicy enough that she's looking forward to retelling it in her old age.

The realization that she is actually going to have an old age and some money set aside to fund it.

A set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill and a black lace bra.

One friend who always makes her laugh and one who lets her cry.

A good piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone else in her family.

Eight matching plates, wine glasses with stems and a recipe for a meal that will make her guests feel honored.

A resume that is not even the slightest bit padded.

A skin care regime, an exercise routine, and a plan for dealing with those few other facets of life that don't get better after age 30.

A solid start on a satisfying career, a satisfying relationship, and all those other facets of life that do get better.

A feeling of control over her destiny ...

I was going to add "Me" to the list, but thought better of it.

Love the list!!

I was pleasantly surprised to see that I could cross off almost everyone of those things as "DONE"!! ( The only one I could not mark off it the part that says "exercise routine" but the other part of that item, I have!!

You've got to love this little girl. What a woman she'll make!

A teacher asked her class, "What do you want out of life" ?

A little girl in the back row raised her hand and said, "all I want out of life is four little animals."

The teacher asked, "really; and what four little animals would that be
sugar" ?

The little girl said, "a mink on my back, a Jaguar in the garage, a
tiger in the bed and a jackass to pay for all of it."

The teacher fainted.
