I'll NEVER...

I'll never is a phrase I say a lot. I don't mean to say it, but I do.



Example:


1. I'll NEVER leave a load of laundry in the dryer (towels are there as I write this).


2. I'll NEVER wimp out and make my husband do chores when I'm pregnant. I'm tough (nope, I ask him to do things I thought I would always do).


3. I'll NEVER leave my bed unmade (if you could only see the disarray on the bed right now... I'm ashamed to think of it.





But the BIGGEST I'll NEVER that I remember using was 10 years ago was:





I'll NEVER go to the same college where my parents, aunts, and grandma went. NEVER!! Who would want to go to college only an hour away? NEVER!!!!!





Well... the old saying is true. Never say never. Why, you ask?

Tomorrow, my family will be heading from Early to Sioux City where I will walk across the stage to earn my Master's degree from the same college where my parents, aunts, and grandma went. Yep. I'm a third generation Morningside graduate.




Some people think college graduations are lame and didn't walk through theirs, but I confess... I am a dork. I like things like that. I'm not completely pleased with my M'side experience, but I will be MORE than pleased when I start earning Masters +30 pay in 7 months :o).

I'm sure I'll have pictures to prove that I should never say never...
