Attitude adjustment inventory

1. I have some good friends who care about me. Not many, but I’d rather have a few good friends than an army of acquaintances.
2. I have a wonderful family.
3. I’m in reasonably good health, and walking 3 miles every day.
4. I work for myself, which is not lucrative but has many more important benefits.
5. I have a beautiful home that’s comfortable and suits me perfectly.
6. I’ve met a lot of cool people through this weblog.

Now you do yours….

    1) The friends and family I have care about me and accept me
    2) I am fat, single, and have a skin disease but somehow I still manage to maintain a smidgen of self-esteem
    3) I was laid off from a job I hated, given a nice severance check, and got a new job I think I’ll really like
    4) I have met people on the Internet who inspire me and who I am happy to know (::cough:: including you Adam ::cough::)
    5) I believe in my heart that there is a creator who loves and cares for us all, regardless of our imperfections, quirks, and mistakes.

    1) Parents still don’t really understand me, but I am very happily married
    2) I hate my job
    3) I hate my apartment
    4) I think I may actually do some writing this weekend (I’ve been blocked on and off since about 1996)
    5) Due to a nasty stomach ailment, I have been put on the world’s blandest diet, which is OK because I am going to lose weight
    6) I’m actually doing yoga two-three times a week like I have wanted to do ever since I was about 17 years old and really, really enjoying it
    7) I love my cats, even if the little one still does beat up on the big one and bite my feet in the morning
