I always admire Sir Bowie's talents more than he admires himself. He could use a little of my impulsive nature and I could use some perfectionism. I was never afraid to make mistakes, that's how you learn. Most great people, not that I'm putting myself in that category, fail far more than they succeed...the trick is to never give up trying and not to be so hard on yourself.<br /><br />The look on Amy's face said that the table was "perfectly flawed"! Learn to live with it and to love yourself as much as those around you. It's so much more enjoyable!<br /><br />Sir Hook the Brilliantly Flawed of WarrickdkWellshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14036130304612683613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3515218627607939514.post-13467524438932303742009-09-17T18:23:50.646-05:002009-09-17T18:23:50.646-05:00Sir Bowie is at woodworking class tonight...

"It's Perfect!"<br /><br />And it is >>> for all of us Recovering Perfectionists nodding our heads along as we read.<br /><br />Lady Suzanne,<br />who was taught well by a white-gloved mother the rules of perfection -- then just when they were well learned, Mom changed the rules -- seems that at mid-life you realize that living happily is more important than living perfectly -- <br /> <br /> Luckily, I also learned that although you must have a spotless house and spotless children, you can open your doors to friends, family and countless slumber parties through the years. And survive.<br /><br />Though not dusting every day and having friends over on the spur of the moment is much more fun!<br /><br />THIS is the lesson I hope my daughters have learned from us - a little dirt never hurt and friends and family times are priceless : )Lady Suzanne of Greenbriarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17715427827385897484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3515218627607939514.post-61643230065715994212009-09-16T15:15:59.891-05:002009-09-16T15:15:59.891-05:00My sister calls herself a recovering perfectionist...My sister calls herself a recovering perfectionist. I used to have that problem more so than I do now, but I too am recovering. Another person close to me is the classic example of a perfectionist down to it being the mother's fault. At work I wanted to be the most accurate and consistent as possible. However, after a number of years of working for people who just want it out quickly, that area has changed as well. <br /><br />The real question is, are you recording the recipes that you like so that you can repeat them for us all later?Sir James of Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00676002938705044077noreply@blogger.com
