This time next week I'll be on a plane to Los Angeles on the way to London. Everything's a bit overwhelming at the moment. Lots of changes afoot. But that is life. It also means the quick and easy Sunday Stealing questions are just what I need - nothing I need to think about too hard.
And it's better than catastrophising about what might go wrong in this holiday - which at the moment is a possible train strike in France, meaning that I can't take the Eurostar (the train that runs from London to Paris). But that is a bridge I will cross when the time comes.
Anyway, here are the Sunday Stealing questions for this week.
It's fall (Autumn), kids are back in school, and we're asking you to grade yourself. This was originally posted in 2017 by Kwizgiver, who stole it from Cat.
From A to F
Give yourself a letter grade (A, A-, B, B-, C, C-, D, D-, F) on the following. Just the letter grade is requested, but you're free to elaborate.
• Happiness
C
There's a lot of big change going on here, making anxiety a real thing. It would be higher if the anxiety was less.
• Being a decent human being
A
I'm willing to have people argue this one with me, but I pride myself on being decent.
• Being serene (calm, peaceful)
B-
Normally I'm a bit more calm, but see the comment above. Lots of big change is overwhelming at the moment.
• Kindness
A
I am unfailingly kind.
• Anger management
B
Anxiety makes me a little snappy, but I normally keep things under control. I've just been a bit shoutier with idiots on the road lately.
• Creative thinking
A-
• Modesty
B
I'm a Leo - Modesty doesn't come easily.
• Being an original
A
Yeah, they broke the mold with me. Some would also mistake being original with being neurodiverse. Same same but different I reckon.
• Knowing yourself
A
• Being true to yourself
A-
I'm a lot better than I was in my younger years.
• Getting along with others
B
I get on with most people - but...I've been marked down because I don't suffer fools.
• Liking yourself
B
As this used to be an F, I think I've come along beautifully. I still won't let myself be photographed, and I've got some body issues, but I'm doing a lot better this this.
• Admitting your flaws
A-
• Self improvement
A
I'm forever a work in progress - that is always a good thing. Never stop learning, never stop changing.

I hate being photorgraphed too and the only reason I appear on them is because Mrs PM insists on them. Actually - regarding "suffering fools" - I generally try to be nice even to idiots. However, if you could read my mind you would immediately know that I don't suffer them internally.
:o)
Cheers
PM
I agree so much with your last answer. When we stop growing, we start dying. I'm going to choose growth! My husband's favorite words while driving are, "You idiot"! (other drivers)
Some head shots I don't mind but I HATE full body shots of me! You DO seem to be a decent sort!
Safe travels!
