#HAWMC Day 13 (Friday the 13th – kewl!), and I’m prompted to share 10 things I won’t live without.
Well, they say “couldn’t” and I say “won’t” – I’m much more definitive and fierce by nature, as we’ve already established.
#1: Common sense
This has saved my ass more than once.
#2: My very widespread family
These people are my … people. I grew up moving all the time, without a strong family anchor I would have been lost.
#3: Good coffee
You need to ask?
#4: Good friends
This comes after good coffee ’cause my family are the only peeps who can manage me without caffeine.
#5: Good wine
Take friends & family. Add good wine. Wonderful experiences ensue.
#6: Hot peppers
I have an incendiary palate, to go along with my incendiary tongue. Any questions?
#7: Hummingbirds
See the post from April 5 if you need to know why.
#8: Salt water
The ocean is my touchstone. I need salt water to feel fully alive.
#9: New experiences (daily, if possible)
I have an insatiable curiosity to know everything I can about the world I live in. Which explains my 20+ years in the news business, and much more.
#10: My ferocity
It’s my gift. Really. The world needs warriors who will gear up and speak truth. I like to think I’m one of them, at least when I’m operating at full power.
