Sentimental=Multiple Attachments

Describe an item you were incredibly attached to as a youth. What became of it?

I have always been super sentimental. Which leads to having multiple attachments. I was also very particular and picky about my toys. My favorite was my Bratz Dollz.

I had a couple cousins who were head popper offers. Yes that is a real thing. Every doll they played with they somehow managed to pop the head off. My parents always hosted the get togethers so this was terrifying for me. Fortunately, I was blessed to have quite a few Bratz Dollz I collected and would share my least favorite ones. Only I could play with my precious ones.

I am not ashamed to admit to this day I am still this way. Bratz recently made a comeback after their twenty year celebration. Ugh … this makes me feel old… My daughters are obsessed. Unfortunately, I lost my original dolls I still had from childhood in our house fire five years ago.

However, thanks to eBay I have some back. Not ashamed to admit I play with my own while my daughters have their own I got them to play with. In the end we are all happy and make amazing memories together.

Better Version of Me

What could you do differently?

My ideal better version of me would be one who handles stress differently. I respond to stress with anger. This fact about me is not good for myself or anyone around me. I’d love to handle my stress better. For myself and everyone else.
