10 Things I Learned in 2019


 

I’ve been posting Firsts of each year for a few years, but I thought this year it would be fun to look at some of the things I learned, many of which resulted from some firsts!

1 - Toilet tanks really can freeze solid. 
      I learned this from the first time I experienced sub-zero high temps for 30-days straight.

2 - Sinovial fluid looks exactly like salad oil.
      Don’t ask how I learned this. The story is too long!

3 – A Toyota can take out a deer with its side mirror.

4 – A smaller deer can take out a Toyota.
      The drivers were not injured in the learning of these lessons. Can't say the same for the deer.
5 – Always park your car in the garage.

6 – How to assemble scaffolding.

7 – No matter how much paint you purchase, you will always need “one more gallon.”

8 – A North Central Montana hailstorm can teach you Lessons 5, 6, & 7.
      We don't take our weather lightly here!

9 – Running Buddies make superb first responders. 
     Okay, I already knew this, but this time I was the patient.

10 – Produce that is not individually wrapped and or marked with country of origin can and will be confiscated at the northern border. You are fortunate if the $500 per item fee is waived simply because you were too dumb to know better.

Really, I could go on, but we will stick with 10 this posting. Here’s wishing you all a fun-filled and informative 2020!
