My Forever’s birthday is the second. As I was thinking about how I wanted to publicly tell him happy birthday, I thought I would share the life lessons I’ve learned from him in our time together.
- Everything can be fixed. Everything. Sometimes it takes creative thinking, but it can be fixed.
- There is always something to do. Always. Never will we ever be caught up. Therefore, when it’s go time, it’s go time.
- Homemade french fries or Taco Bell will fix my bad mood almost instantly.
- There is a solution to every problem. Think about it and figure it out. If you are having difficulty, ask someone that can.
- Can’t isn’t a word and shouldn’t be in your vocabulary.
- You are capable of so much more than you give yourself credit for.
- Mountain Dew and sugar in the form of ice cream, brownies, really anything, is a meal. Nothing else is required. (If you would like to know how much we spend on Mountain Dew a year, I’ll give you a hint: It’s about five times as much as you’re thinking and twice as much as I think.)
- Words solve almost nothing and are rarely needed.
- Listen more than you talk.
- Find boots that you like and buy about 12 of the same pair so you never have to go shopping again.
- There are certain items that need to be name brand (pickles and Milwaukee tools), but Harbor Freight is also appropriate for a lot of things.
- Always be prepared for anything and everything.
- Always carry a jack, an impact wrench and a socket set.
