Things I just CAN'T let go of....

1. My running shorts. I bought these my freshman year of college (yes, my FIRST freshman year). The other day I noticed that they weren't staying where they were supposed to when I ran. I gleefully thought for a moment that maybe I had lost a bit of weight...and then realized that the elastic was probably stretched out. These running shorts have seen me through all different shapes and sizes...my trainer shape, my double decker oatmeal cream pie a night shape, my marathon shape (word from the wise...just because you are training for a marathon, it does not mean that you can eat as many root beer floats as you want!) and the shape I am now. These poor shorts have been with me for about 8 years and they are my FAVORITE. I just can't throw them out.

2. My childhood teddy bear. I wish I could say that Coco-Marshmallow was JUST my childhood teddy bear...He was actually my adult teddy bear too. I didn't give him up until I was engaged. I still keep him in my closet. I just can't get rid of him...he's seen me through far too much in my life! I know you all think I'm crazy now!

3. My orange Reeses Peanut Butter Cup t-shirt. I actually did throw this t-shirt out about a week ago. I had it for FAR too long. I figured that since you could see through it...it was probably a good time to let this one go. It was just SOOO comfortable!

4. My Diet Coke with Lime habit. I just LOVE this stuff. Pretty much the only time I gave it up for an extended period of time was when I thought I was pregnant. Wheww...that was a rough week.

5. School. I know, I know..it's crazy. I hate school. I hate studying...but now that I am on the brink of graduation, I keep thinking about different certifications I could get to increase my nursing knowledge. I also think about taking Spanish classes so I can become fluent in the language.

Well..that's my list. What's hard for you to give up?
