So some weeks I feel no inspiration for Mama Kat's writing assignment and other weeks I can write about 3 or 4 of them. The list ones are the easiest ones for me. I love lists. So...
10 things that I'm afraid of. In no particular order.
#1-Amusement rides. I despise them. I don't know if it's the speed, the height, the feeling of losing control. I hate them.
#2-Needles. This is valid. It's not just I don't like them b/c it hurts. When I was 7 I had an unexplained fever. I had 3 spinal taps in 6 days. Blood draws every 4 hours for 6 days, 1 a day for like 2 weeks and then 1 a week for 6 weeks. It was not easy. I was scarred. Then when I was 12 I had stitches and my dr was a dick head and didn't give my anthestic nicely.
#3-Losing my husband to an early death. He travels so much and is around so much huge machinery. I just have awful visions of getting a phone call or a visit.
#4-Not being able to have a child. This one is self explanatory. I don't have the energy to explain this now.
#5-Creepy crawlies. We live in the "country" and they are all over. UGH!
#6-Not teaching my students effectively. I always wonder if I'm really doing this right and the kids are really learning.
#7-That blogging is an addiction. What happened to faithful TV watching, reading books, doing school stuff.
#8-Not pleasing people. I'm a people pleaser. I say YES to much, it's so hard for me to please myself over somebody else, especially family or friends.
#9-Losing some friendships. After 16 months of marriage, I'm realizing that while I've gained so much; there are some things that I've lost and I will continue to lose and I've finally started to say goodbye. Yet there are some friendships that I can't say goodbye to ever and truly hope that I never have to.
#10-I can't think of anything. I guess I'm only afraid of 9 things.

I have read a couple fear prompts so far, and I have to say we must be kindred spirits! 3-8 I totally am there with you on!
And don't worry about the teaching thing. All the good ones feel this way. Your little ones are lucky to have you!
I did fears as well - and I totally forgot about amusement rides - I HATE THem! they freak me out - I get so sick - literally I will pass out if I ride anything. I went on the silly teacups with my daughters at Disney and threw up!!!!!
So as much as I fear rollercoasters, I really do enjoy them. It's just a pill to get me to not worry about them breaking down while in the midst of my ride.
I just love the adrenaline rush.
my husband hates needles too. and blood. he gets pale and looks like he is going to faint. strangely, that stuff doesn't bother me. but i do hate creepy crawlies!
I fear #6 as well..
Good list. I couldn't do this prompt because, if I wrote about my fears, I would be stressing all day.
This list definitely made me think...I like it when people come up with different things. And the needles?? Yeah I wouldn't be a fan with that history either! Poor thing.
