Two Words and Some

It's MEME time! I saw this on 2 Sistahs Knit Together and thought it would be fun to play along. Here's what you do:

The object is to complete each of the following snippets…

I am: turning 50 this year!
I think: that it’s time for me to learn to play golf
I know: that when I put out positive energy it comes back to me
I have: a happier life than I ever imagined
I wish: I had grandbabies to spoil
I hate: when my husband sneaks cigarettes
I try: not to judge
I miss: my Grandma & Grandpa and my Mother-in-Law, my first cat Zachary (who loved the boys all better than he liked me), and driving my ‘74 MG Midget (which hasn’t run in nearly 2 years)
I fear: That my computer will die before I’ve had a chance to back up my knitting patterns, photos, and iTunes (in that order)
I hear: every little sound, especially at night when the house is quiet. They don’t scare me but they do keep me awake sometimes.
I smell: clean laundry; specifically vanilla & lavender Downy (my computer is in my laundry room)
I crave: Ben & Jerry’s Coffee Heath Bar Crunch, but only because I know there’s some in the freezer
I search: Ravelry for new knitting patterns - all - the - time
I wonder: what my life will be like 5 years from now. 10. 20. 50.
I regret: that I didn’t get to know my husband’s father better before he died
I love: my life, my family, my friends, being in good health, all animals, knitting, sailing, snorkeling, fresh peaches, and Ketel One Citroen vodka
I ache: the next morning when I overdo it on the dance floor
I am not: going to grow up. And you can’t make me. Neener-neener!
I believe: that helping others makes you a better person
I dance: when I am happy, whether I’m alone in my kitchen or out to dinner with my husband
I sing: in the car (always), in the kitchen (sometimes), and in the shower (occasionally)
I cry: when my friends & I laugh so hard
I fight: with my kitty Nutmeg when she wants me to get up at 6:30 a.m. and I’d rather sleep another hour (She paws the bed till she wakes me up then bites me in the hand. I yell at her, then roll over and ignore her. So I win. Heh.)
I win: when I choose to be happy
I lose: when I let anger get the best of me
I never: misplace things
I always: say please and thank you. Always.
I confuse: names. I always remember faces but have a hard time remembering names
I listen: to audiobooks, podcasts, and many types of music, but lately I’ve been listen to Duffy’s Rockferry album over & over (usually skipping the first and last songs)
I can usually be found: at home, either on the computer, knitting, or listening to audio books while I clean the house
I am scared: that my husband will get lung cancer like his father and sister did
I need: to get my car’s oil changed, get my butt back on the treadmill, and spend less time on the computer (Hi Ravelry!)
I am happy about: 98% of the time
I imagine: what it will be like to have grandchildren and fantasize about taking them to the zoo and watching their eyes light up when they see the elephants

If you'd like to play too, consider yourself tagged!

That was so fun to read your answers. I could relate to many of them, especially about growing up. I think I might have to try that Ben & Jerry's Coffee Bar. I love Coffee ice cream.
