The Love it/Shove it Challenge

[mariannewest]

I was tagged by @binkyprod, @fininfun and @raj808 to the fun challenge titled The Love it/Shove it Challenge, created by @snowpea. So sorry that it is taking me half a year (okay, not quite) to actually get to posting it.

Shove it!!!!

1. Should!!!! What a loaded word!! People like to should all over each other -and worse, I do it to myself. Correction. Used to do that to myself. Should, would, could - all a bit toxic. Should is the winner!! It always means that we or what we did is not good enough!! Let's shove it out of our lives. Whatever happened just is...

2. People who judge others by the color of their skin. Doesn't matter what color skin does the judging of another color. This is so wrong that words fail to express how wrong it is. Shove it!!!!

3. All forms of housework. Hate it!!!!! I admire people who love cleaning and wished they would come over to my house - I do love a clean house... Big conflict 😩 Shove it!!!

4. Money worries - enough said. If you have been there, you know. If you haven't, you won't understand.

5. Cancer.

1. Feeling healthy and comfortable in my body.

2. My children, grandchildren, married into the family children, husband, birth family, and the rest of the assorted clan.

3. Hanging out in the garden, growing and eating delicious beyond organic permaculture food.

4. The freewriters and the rest of steemit (with some exceptions who belong in the shove it column and we are not going to talk about that here.)

5. Being free to explore ever new horizons.

By now, you guessed how this challenge works. Tell us about 5 things you love, and 5 things you want to shove out of your life. The challenge has been going on for a bit and most of you probably already have done it. I am nominating you! Yes, you, who is reading this and hasn't done the challenge yet!

Better late than never marianne ;-) I liked this challenge for the get-to-know-youness of it all. In your 'Shoves' I'm definitely a big 'shove it' to: Racism and Housework, one a serious issue I have been involved with fighting since an early age and the other, a less serious issue... but I have also fought against it from an early age.
In your 'love its'

Hanging out in the garden, growing and eating delicious beyond organic permaculture food.

Yes, me to, I love pottering about in my allotment... and

The freewriters and the rest of steemit (with some exceptions who belong in the shove it column and we are not going to talk about that here.)

Steemit is great. Although the self-important gobshites can be wearisome sometimes, best to forget them, that's what I did :-)

[mariannewest]

I had a feeling that we are kindred souls :)

[zen-art]

Great lists, both of them. This is the first time that I like someones shove it list more than love it list :) Throw all those things away, I am with you! :D

[mariannewest]

Oh, thank you!! Yes!! Let's throw those things out of our lives with a gusto!!!
