Thanks Judith over at Vicarious Rising and seems like a good enough reason to test my finger on the keyboard. Forgive the typos....Most of you have already seen or done this so....
Here's the rules:
List 10 honest things about myself
Pass the award on to 7 bloggers
10 random honest things about ME and it is all about ME:
1. While all my life I "prided" myself on honesty and spouted it all the time....held myself up as a tell it like it is person....this last year of sobriety it the ONLY time I have been truly honest. When I can't be...I shut up.
2. One of the things about honesty that really troubles me....if I haven't been honest with myself all of my life....how do I know I'm being honest with myself now?
3. I have periods of doubt aboout this Higher Power thing.
4. I talk about how busy I am but what I am most busy at is procrastination.
5. I don't like my mother.
6. I've seen my daughter stretch the truth in the same way that I did and I haven't talked to her about it.
7. I know money isn't everything but I wish I had it.
8. When I first started to drive, I used to hit lots of cars in parking lots, not on purpose and leave fake notes so people thought I was doing the "right" thing.
9. I'm a flirt and use my marriage as a shield.
10. I felt bad because I didn't make the list of many bloggers who passed this on.
So now I'm supposed to pass this on to 7 bloggers.....so here goes..

I have now been tagged by you and Findon. I'm going to post my 10 honest things about myself tomorrow.
IMHO - God/Higher Power - can handle your periods of doubt - no sweat!
Doubts are part of being human.
kudos on your honest appraisal of self!
we have many traits in common;
thanks so much for including me in the award!
Wow, I mean WOW. You blew me away with your touching and honest list. Thank you for sharing. I know what you mean about worrying about whether I've been honest, like, have I unintentionally been dishonest because I was lying to myself?
Lots of love to you & I hope your finger feels better soon!
