So today is my 35th birthday! Holy crap! Where did the years go to?
I walk this fine line between being stuck in that adult world of responsibilities, mortgage, job, etc, and the other more youthful side who sometimes wants a much more carefree life. I am convinced that though you cannot have it all at all times a good life balance is possible.
I wonder what the next 5 years will bring? Immense change within the last 5 years and dramatic change since 10 years ago.
The next 5 will probably be devoted to continuing to expand my own inner self and being more true to my wishes, desires, and goals.
No greater gift to yourself than a simple and fulfilling life.
I haven't posted in forever! I have had this journal now for 9 long years and clearly it has gone through ups and downs. Just wonder if anyone is still using LJ or if I should give in and go to blogspot. So many changes for me over the last couple of years that I have not had the time to dedicate to blogging that I would like to.
I love days off! I have worked 32 hours in the last 3 days so today is much needed.
Just finished all the cleaning (and laundry). next is a shower and maybe Ill grab a cup of coffee and take the camera out and get some pictures. I have hundreds from the last year or so. unfortunately many are on the hard drive in my old laptop. I do have some entertaining ones that I will post soon.
Im fighting the urge to eat large amounts of food today.
Just feeling the urge again. I think this time ill stick around if anyone is still here. :)
Doing super! A bit stressed these days with work but I imagine everyone has issues with their job. Looming budget cuts may put my job in jeopardy towards July/August, but, that gives me plenty of time to get prepared. No sense worrying myself to death.
Doing great physically. Down about 20lbs since August and eating much better. Usually being single has the opposite effect...
I am wondering what the next year will bring. 2010 has been such a year of changes, as was 2009 and 2008. Maybe 2011 will be my year to really shine and be able to move foward with some things personally and not have to dump all my time and energy into work and at home.
I love love love being a homeowner (as expensive as it is). I am also grateful for what I have rather than upset by what I don't have.
Certainly things aren't perfect. I still suffer lots of bouts of anxiety but nothing is too big to overcome.
Last week I had something rediculously funny (or I thought it was) happen.
Apparently one night around 3am I decided I needed some yogurt (fruit on the bottom).
After using the little boys room I apparently went into the kitchen and got the yogurt out, took the foil off the top, and grabbed the spoon as well.
I woke up like 6am with my fingers covered in yogurt and the cup laying at my fingertips. There was a yogurt puddle and the spoon was not readily accessible. It was on the floor....
None of the fruit on the bottom was disturbed either.
