Things that I don't stress over...

...and yet commercials make me think that I should.

~ thicker eye lashes
~ wrinkles (I prefer to age appropriately, the way God intended)
~ flawless make-up coverage
~ removing/preventing stretch marks with mederma (only surgery will do for body)
~ removing cellulite with cream (again, surgery)
~ the bounce dryer bar making my life SO much easier, since throwing in that dryer sheet seems to be such a hassle
~ switching to Progressive...because we used to have it and it was way more expensive than the insurance that we have now
~ that I'll be as thin and model-like as Heidi Klum if I eat light & fit yogurt
~ getting a flu shot (never had one; never had the flu)
~ buying a party-cardi
~ my babies learning to read before the age of 3
~ voo-doo to make the Falcons lose to the Saints (because that OBVIOUSLY didn't work)
~ my kid looking good in a denim diaper

I'm sure that I could come up with many more things.  Add your own in my comments if you want.

On a side note:  Our good friends, the Christener's, are coming to visit us today!!!  They are missionaries in Ukraine.  When I talked to Glenda the other day, we realized that it has been 5 years since we have seen each other.  I think we saw Steve without the family about 3 years ago.  To put it plainly, we've both had 2 kids since we saw each other last.  We only have 1 night with them before they take off to the FIRE International Missions Conference.  I am going to enjoy and soak in every second that we have together.
