Luv and Hat
A little wee while ago, Anxious Mom over at Strong Enough to Break nominated me for this Love/Hate challenge. “Love” and “hate” are quite strong words so I’m toning it down a bit by using Sideshow Bob’s tattoos from The Simpsons (because they only have three fingers, you see).
Things I Luv
- Sunny early mornings with the smell of flowers and grass and such.
- My job. Well, maybe “luv” is too strong a word, but I don’t mind going, it’s a good job and I enjoy it. That’s more than many people can say.
- Reading great books. Lots and lots of books!
- Being all growed up so I can make my own decisions.
- Writing again after so long – years and years and years.
- My littleΒ car
- Afternoon naps
- Quiet walks out in The Nature
- My little house – mine, all mine bwahahaha! (And the bank’s.)
- Netflix, and its wealth of quality entertainment π
Things I Hat
- Spiders
- Inconsiderate people.
- Computers answering phone calls when people should be answering phone calls.
- Traffic slowing down for no reason and then speeding up again and you never know why.
- Crowded places.
- Marketing cold calls. No, I don’t want any, thank you. Oh, you’re a computer.
- Changing my routine.
- Intolerant people.
- When people randomly waste stuff, like water or electricity or plastic bags.
- More spiders
I’m not going to nominate people, and I know many people have done this one already. Feel free to join in if you like!

I so very much agree with your choices. All of them. Except your job because I don’t know what you do, exactly.

Coincidentally I just caught one on the stairs 30 seconds ago. It was one of those small compact high speed ones. Like my car, only with more legs.

I luv’d your “luv” list… π and as for #2 (no not that #2…) you are so very lucky!
As for the hat list… I agree about the spiders. “shudder”… and the crowded places, great big crowds are almost as scary as spiders… the only thing worse that I can think of is a big crowd of spiders… EEEK!!!

Yes, I was very lucky to get it! I’ve worked there nearly 12 years now π
I don’t even want to think about a big crowd of spiders. And it’s nearly bedtime. I hope I don’t have nightmares π¦

Great lists. I love naps and quiet walks. That’s a cool little car. What kind is it?
LikeLike
Naps are the best.
The car is a Ford Fiesta ST3 (in the US it would be a 3 door Fiesta ST with all the optional add-ons).

It took quite a while to find 10 things for me to hat (and I may have cheated a bit with the spiders, but I thought they deserved a second mention) π

I totally agree about cold calls and computers answering phone calls. Both are maddening. But, unlike you, I like spiders – as long as they are’t as big as tarantulas … or poisonous!

Horrible eight-legged high speed furry creepy crawlies π¦

Crumbs. I better get some industrial strength bug spray in case they come at me en masse.
If they can get their trousers on, that is.
