It's all about me!

I have seen this all over the place, on blog after blog; and being a thief of long standing ... here you go ... it's all about me, me, me, me, me!
I AM :: able to touch the tip of my nose with my tongue.
I WANT :: to come home tonight and not have to cook as I have cooked every meal we have consumed since Thursday (including packed lunches) ... wonders if he is listening?
I WISH :: Ruth would come and work at our school!
I HATE :: hatred, it's about a lack of knowledge and fear and oh-so often it's not even our hatred it's long embedded in history and we all deserve a fresh start!
I MISS :: the flexibilty of teenage bones! I bounced out of bed and swam each day and had boundless energy ... no I drag myself out of the pit each morning and need caffeine to keep me going!
I FEAR :: spiders! Why do we need them ... yeh I know they eat flies but really do we need anything with that many legs?
I HEAR :: bird-song just outside my window, time to send Simon up on a ladder!
I WONDER :: if I'll ever be a mother? I'd like to think I'd make a good one *smiles sadly*
I REGRET :: not writing down the stories my grandfather told me about the world he discovered as a young man in the merchant navy. He spent pretty much the first half of the 20th century going around the world, witnessing (what to him were) marvels & oddities, touching lives and unfortunately many of those stories are now lost.
I AM NOT :: sexist, racist, ageist or homophobic.
I DANCE :: whenever I hear music, I'm not very good but I don't care because I love to dance!
I SING :: all the time, especially when I dance!
I CRY :: when I'm both happy and sad.
I AM NOT ALWAYS :: able to control my temper
I MAKE WITH MY HANDS :: delicious food, I love to cook!
I WRITE :: my blog, my planning and in children's exercise books ~ quite enough for me I think!
I CONFUSE :: homophones when I'm typing quickly and making up the sentence as I go along ... when I go back and re read I always think what a tit! Like your and you're or their and they're and because I'm Welsh here, ear and year.
I NEED :: to get my budget bid written tonight or I shall be dragged in front of the headteacher!
I SHOULD :: go and get ready for work or I shall be late.
I START :: the day very early, I enjoy the quietness of the house when only I am up and around; peace perfect peace!
I FINISH :: last in running races but first on quiz nights ;o)

Homophones- tricky little blighters. Are "its" and "it's", cos they are my downfall.

I sing all the time. If my daughter is home she runs round the house closing all the windows!!!

Re Regrets..... What is stopping you from starting to write down now what you can remember of your grandfather's stories? Maybe you will remember more as you start?
