My first post on blogger.com.
Today was a great day for me. I was happy, didn’t feel like work dragged like it usually does. And I bought 2 shares of Apple stock for myself. (i think it’s a good buy at the moment.)
Today was also my grandma’s birthday, so we spent the evening in the comfort of family togetherness. Speaking of family: Logan is becoming such a wonderful little man already; it’s so hard to believe that he will be 2 years old in February. Of course he throws his tantrums… but I think that overall he has one of the best dispositions that a 1.5 year old could have. He’s calm, but happy; excited to enjoy life, but not wild. He’s my pride and joy. Luckily, he’ll have a little brother to play with in November and I think that he will be a terrific big brother!
I got to thinking about my life… which happens quite often. I just don’t know where I’m going with it. I plan on going back to school in the Spring semester…. but I don’t know if Advertising is what I want to spend the rest of my life doing. I’m minoring in Art… so that I can work in the creative department, but I’m not big on office jobs. Too bad volunteer jobs can’t pay bills, huh?
I’m currently on a Maya Angelou kick for reading, and as her mother says something along the lines of “If you gonna do something, be the best at it.” (That is not her exact phrase… but I can’t recall it at the moment). But I think that line is so true.
It’s important to enjoy what you do in life in order to enjoy life itself.
I enjoy my life because I have almost 2 children, a loving family, and expectations for myself that I hope to accomplish. However, it’s my expectations that scare me because I constantly doubt my own abilities to do things. I procrastinate, and unfortunately am a bit lazy. I criticize myself a lot about being better and more efficient with my time and efforts… but old habits (and I think genetics) are hard to beat.
Anyway. Those are the random thoughts for tonight.
