I then complained later on in the day cause Selah asked for a glass of water when I had just sat down after getting Charis a glass of water. I didn't say anything but just gave a long sigh.
Monday was complaint free!
Tuesday came and I was crusing along and then I had to play Mario Kart at 10pm! I was in first for most of the race but then I got hit by a shell and then run over by pretty much everyone else racing and rumbled to the finish line in a glorious 10th place. I exclaimed, "I hate when you get hit and then they all just run over you! It's not fair!" Uh-oh. Time to switch the bracelet and back to 21 days to go.
Tuesday was pretty good until Bec told me about something that annoyed me. I slipped out a complaint. Not a big one, mind you. But enough to warrant switching to my right arm.
Wednesday was complaint free! Today, so far, so good!
So only 20 days left. I am really making progress here :-)
How is everyone else doing in "complaint free living?"
PS My dear sister Jenna didn't get a bracelet cause she was teaching class but she said if she did have one, it would probably burn off from all the complaining she does...she is famous for her complaints but she really does has a sweet heart!

haha thanks jonathan.
Complaint free for 5 hours ( :
Couldn't you have written a post about something else...
oh man, now I have to start all over!
(actually I didn't get a bracelet.)
funny post, and I know exactly what you're saying about Mario Kart, I could throw the controller across the room when that happens!
I want a bracelet!!!!!!!!!! I guess I could just get one for myself...but, still.
um, is that a complaint?
and I can't believe you got josh robinson to actually comment on here--what's the secret?
He's been lurking on mine since it started...
Yeah I knew this post would lure him out of his shell. You just have to be strategic about what you post. I have a few more planned that are bound to get comments: "Why St. Louis Sucks" "Can anything good come from Idaho?" "Guys Groups are for Wimps and my favorite, "Josh Robinson: GYM TEACHER"
josh robinson can type!????
lol he's right Jess. You have to work a little harder ( : Jonathon I am stoked for your upcoming posts especially Josh Robinson: GYM TEACHER
Drat! I complained again! This time Nathan and I were sanding something for the church and I said, without thinking, "there is nothing I hate more than sanding." I let it sit there for awhile and finally said, "that's a complaint right?" Nathan said, "I was wondering if you'd catch it!"
And the stupid thing is that I hate alot of other things by far more than sanding!
Oh well. 21 days reset.
PS I actually don't think it's Jrob typing, I think he is dictating to Christine what to type since he really is unable...more on this when I post "Nothing good can come from Idaho"
What about your wife? I think she might have a slight problem with that post? ( :
How about writing an expose on Josh Robinson? Something like, Local Gym Teacher Caught Lurking on Blogs! Could your child's gym teacher be a lurker too? How to identify the classic signs...
Man the Latshaws love to gang up! At least I don't go around posting creepy comments ( :
well said, Josh!
Okay, so I am wearing a bracelet--started this morning. So far, so good--but I have pretty much been by myself all day, so it's not that hard to not complain...
I don't complain very much when I'm alone either. Goodness, I barely even speak out loud at all!
For those loners who barely speak a word all day, you have to start counting complaining thoughts! Jess, if you really want a bracelet I'm sure Jrob can send you his!
That pic on your post is probably one of the worst pics I have ever seen of you! (just kidding, well not really!!) But I would like a bracelet too!! Yeah and that color purple is one of the worst shades of purple!! If I'm going to get a bracelet I'm going to have to like paint over the purple with another purple, because the purple is sooooooooo ugly!!
p.s. Well I guess thats kinda complaining!!
