Sometimes old habits die hard. The most horrifying example I’ve heard is the couple whose car ran over a downed high-voltage line. They were told if they just jumped off onto the ground without touching the outside of the car they would be fine. The woman made it fine, and so did the fellow — until he instinctively turned around and slammed the door shut. Oops!

Have you ever been tripped up by an old habit?

      One report says 86,000 people a year go to the ER from accidents involving their pets. It’s not just tripping over them, though, it’s also being pulled while walking them. breaking up fights, tripping over their bowls or toys, etc. Most pet owners think the risk is worth it. 🙂

    It seems like my life is just a string of old habits sometimes.
    But I’m working on cutting that string.
    Yep…

    I’m not sure if any particular habit has tripped me up…I’m sure if I spent a year thinking about it – something would come up in very “bright lights” – most of my habits are just part of my life, ” I thinnnnnnnnnnnk”
