Time to take stock

[13throwcenter]

I used to do this in my journal every once in a while... kind of as a way of measuring "where I was" in life, i guess... but I haven't done it for a long time now so i thought i would do it here and maybe get you all to join me...
Four categories...things I love, things I like, things I don't like, things I hate.... i used to list as many as i could think of, but to keep it simple, let's just list 5-10 things....
