11,000th Episode Of My Life, Why Did You Go There?

Blog City Prompt: "The Young and the Restless" has just celebrated it's 11,000th episode. With that in mind, what are some of your favorite episodes of your life? You can talk about bad ones as well.

Being in beauty pageants, high school graduation, college graduation, being nominated for Who's Who In America, getting married, having my son, moving into our first house, buying a new car, these are some of my favorite episodes of my life. Being notified my books were being published. Seeing my books in print. Being featured as an author in the college newsletter. Everything I get at WDC. New friends, having my own cat, scrapbooking, Christmas with my family and my husband and the things he does for me. My father and no longer fighting. We get along now. We have been through too much.

Bad episodes of my life. House burning down, husband having a stroke, me having extensive bowel surgery, being on a breathing tube for 6 days and almost dying, having hernia surgery, Dad having a stroke, losing my first pet kitty Tigger, sister-in-law issues, son wrecking my car.

I hope the next 11,000 episodes of my life will be happy!

BCOF Prompt: But why did you go there in the first place?

Ex-boyfriends houses, houses of friends I had no business hanging out with. Getting lost. A wasted vacation in boring Ohio. Doctor's visits. I wish I could skip those. Buying things at stores I didn't really need. My first job at a Nursing Home. I wished I wouldn't have stepped foot in that place. Guess we never know which place we shouldn't have gone to.
