Pet peeves:
- loud, obnoxious cars
- people I don’t know that come into my bubble [example: I was standing in line at Starbucks and this guy was RIGHT behind me that I felt him touching my purse [not w/his hands]. So naturally, I scooted forward thinking that he needed more room, but he scooted forward too and we ended up exactly the same]. It would be one thing if there wasn’t any room, but there was plenty.
- people who run into you, know it, but don’t apologize [so rude]
- smelling puffs of weed at concerts that I’m trying to enjoy [it happened at U2 and it made me so nauseous]
Lord, help me to have more patience and love in these situations.
On a brighter note, here are some cute and funny images that Sunny sent me and Dave in an email titled ‘For the 2 Most Gifted Self-Induced Narcoleptics I know
’ [b/c we're always tired].

come on… i know you like to puff the magic dragon ^__^
Yes, I hear you about the personal space issue! I have that issue all the time in the elevator at work. No matter how many people there are in an elevator – there is always a configuration to maximize each person’s personal space – so that no one is too close and the elevator crowd is balanced. Some people just don’t understand and stand one inch in front of you even though your back is pressed against the back wall. The worst is when people in the front turn around and look at you. ugh.
Also on par with loud cars is really loud motorcycles. Why?
do you encounter a lot of people smoking weed at christian concerts?
“people smoking weed at concerts that I’m trying to enjoy”
Just because they said, “No you can’t smoke with us” doesn’t make the concert less enjoyable. ;]

Did Cypress Hill come to town? I didn’t know you liked to jam out to reefer music.
That’s funny. Cannabis sometimes used to help treat nausea/vomiting.
i think i can fall asleep like that kid is standing up.. im tired…
so cute!!! kaitlyn did that MANY times…. so adorable.. so tired and hungry.. they don’t know what is priority…
i totally agree with some of those pet peeves… like the bubble… i get uncomfortable when i’m standing in line and i can feel the person behind me….
cute pictures.. i can SOO relate!!! ;P
I hate it when people touch my shoulder area. For a second is ok but if they keep touching it makes me really uncomforatble.
I love kids. They are so cute. They want to do so much but they dont know what their bodies can handle. My nephew feel asleep on me like the little girl standing up. I thought he was playing with my pants but he just knocked out. ahahaha
too cuuuute
how precious!
nice entry…and cute pictures! I get irritated at alot of the same stuff too! How has everything been for you, Unnie? what have you been up to? Hope all is well….take care!
that happened to me one time (at a concert at the Gorge) but thank goodness it was well ventilated! hahaha
hi grace. kids are funny aren’t they? i remember i was standing in line at starbucks and this girl who was standing in line wouldn’t move up. So i pushed her a bit on her purse area b/c i didn’t want to touch her and she was trying so hard to stand her ground or something. So i just stood next to her to see if she got the clue, but i don’t think she did. Oh well…oh wait, that was you! AHHHHHHHHHH
Those kids must really be tired.
Hey, you’re a photographer, I checked out your gallery. You have some great pictures, and probably good equipment too from the bokeh and focus on the photos. You also have a lot of shots I’ve been wanting to do, but I haven’t had the volunteers or the scenic views to try it out. Anyway, just stopping by.
it almost brings tears to my eyes to see that you and I have the same giftings as these precious children do… the peacefulness of sleep : )
Our kids have done that plenty:) Ask Hun about when we went to Cheesecake Factory. Daniel was trying hard to stay awake while eating but couldn’t make it:)
hey grace… this is esther from HRC. just wanted to say hello, and it was really great seeing you again in cali. wish you could have stayed longer, but i’m sure us cali folks and you seattle peeps will have our paths cross again! =)
LOL!!!!! Those pictures are so funny! I don’t know if I can ever fall asleep eating, but I can picture myself falling asleep on a bookshelf like that. LOL!
Nice pix. So adorable!!!!
By the way about the pet peeves…. I hate it when people bump into you and walk about without apologizing. That happened to me today! Is it just plain ignorance?
