"I am extraordinarily patient, provided I get my own way in the end." ~ Margaret Thatcher

I am trying to add something here, and I just don't know what to say.

I am not a patient person at all. Whether I am wanting to get my own way or not. This is something I have a really hard time with.....and I have a sister who is WORSE!

I am NOT a patient person, and that is so hard wtih little ones...I have learned patience but it doesn't always come into practice.

When I want something done I want it done 5 mins ago!

I am very patient. I think that is one of my strong points.

I am so not patient. It's a constant work in progress. This is my main thing I need to work on all the time.

I find that the older I get, the less patient I become. It's frustrating. I don't want to be that way, but waiting in line is something that will just get my blood boiling - especially since I am always in the WRONG LINE!!! If I'm stuck behind someone at the grocery store who is using food stamps AND writing a check - I want to explode. I can't understand people who still write checks instead of using a debit card if they are under 70, and then they never have the checkbook even out or their ID ready. They wait until all the groceries are rung up before it dawns on them to open the purse & start writing it.

Was this written for me?? lol

I am so not patient about certain things... like calimari I cannot stand people who write checks!!! But funny thing, when I am in traffic, I am patient.

But truth be told, if I know I'm getting my way of COURSE I'm patient! sort of LOL

That's just it happymom... if you are quick it's ok and even better if you start while they are scanning your stuff.
It is so blasted annoying when the old dear pulls the checkbook out like a turtle, drops her pen, finds out her pen doesn't work, then the cashier says they will fill it out for her ( but "no cannot do that"), then has to void the check because she wrote it out for the wrong amount....
