It's really happening!

It's happening.  It's really happening!  I made a few strategic decisions to get me where I wanted to be and it worked!  This, along with the Universe working in my favor, of course.  Things seem to be shaping up in a healthy, perfectly-paced manor.  I do believe that 2013 is going to be a very exciting year!  Professionally, at least.  And Lord, let's hope romantically as well!

Happy New Year, y'all!

Much love to you and yours.

Ugh.

I've been having a rough few weeks.  I find myself sleeping A LOT.  Like, all weekend and about 10 hours a day during the week.  What am I avoiding?  What is going on?  I have also started clenching my jaw while I am working and sleeping, resulting in a MAJORLY sore jaw that makes it hard to even eat anything.  There is a knot in my neck that is so tight that I can't turn my head all the way to the left.  So, I ask you, what the hell is going on in my brain that my body is reacting so strongly to?  I am not about anything except money, but I am always stressed about money, so why would it effect me like crazy now?  Ugh, anyway, I just wanted to vent about my goings on...

Don't WE me!

You know what I hate?  Like, REEEEAAAALLLYY hate?? When people answer questions that were directed at them, as a single person, with "WE".   Or, when I tell one of my friends to 'have fun' at something and they respond with 'we will!'.  I wasn't talking to your partner - I was talking to YOU.  I don't give a rat's ass if your girlfriend or husband has fun!  And if I do, I'll tell them to have fun too! ARRGG. It irks me. 

What's worse? When they say things like, "Oh, we don't see movies like that" or "We don't eat seafood" AAHHH!!! 

The future awaits!

I have been a total blogging slacker!!! It's almost like there is TOO much to tell so I haven't been telling anything at all.  But I whined at my bff for not blogging at all lately, so I suppose I should practice what I preach. 

I have been dreaming and scheming a lot lately about my next adventure in life.  I am at a good place in my life, past all the shitty-boss drama, past all the guy-doesn't-love-me drama, and ready for some positive changes.  Mainly, I am finally ready to follow my dream of becoming a healer/counselor/knower of all things wonderful!  So, I am starting a certificate program in October to lead me start me on that path.  I have already started decorating my new office space in my head :)  I think it will be a hands-on type of counseling.  Walking, talking, learning, exploring... I picture myself walking along a river in the woods while talking to someone who just needs a little love and guidance to get them headed toward their destiny.  Most people just want someone to believe in them.  And what they don't know is that all they really need is to believe in themselves.  Well, I am here to help.  You'll just have to pay me to do so :)

Travel

I just had the BEST family vacation ever in beautiful Vermont! 

I've been back for 10 days and it has been a real struggle to get back into the swing of my "real" life.  So, what better way to push it off a bit longer, than to go to Lake Powell!?

I can't get there fast enough! 

Then, one more week of work and I am off to Boulder for the weekend! 



 I'm a pro at avoiding reality... :)

Just okay

I haven't written anything in quite a while because there's really not much to write about... Things are okay.  Yes, just okay.  Not terrible but not great.  Things with the man went down the shiter.  The new job is everything I wanted it to be and drama-free.  I haven't lost the 30 pounds I wanted to, I think I've lost about 8.  I still hate getting out of bed everyday and have no motivation to do anything after work.  My life is pretty mundane, pretty... okay.  Anyway, just thought I would say hi, in case you were wondering where I have been.  I'll try to come back more often with something whitty, or at least entertaining.  'Til then....

Things that make you go hmmm...

I recently went to one of my best friend's weddings and it was fabulous!  However, while I was there I was reminded how much I adore her and her family and on the flight home I started thinking about how different things were when people stayed in their home towns. 


I spend a lot of my time keeping in touch with my family and friends that have dispersed across the world and I often wish I could share a beer or a hug with one of them.  It is strange how much physical distance there is between all of us.  It leads me to wonder if our 'happy places' are where we live or who we live near. 

I have toyed with this idea for many years and I still don't have the answer.  Ideally, I would like in a place with mountains, ocean, a timid climate and all of my family and friends.  But that is never going to happen.  So, what is the next best thing?
