What a long week.
I don't have internet at home lately and I'm not working hardly at all, which got me access to some internet.
But to do a quick catch up:
1. I'm back in school. I've struggled to really get the motivation and drive to dust myself off from years of failed attempts and shame, but I found it. I've planned it all out over the next few years and it seems so do-able. I'm excited. But I'm still just taking it one semester at a time. This semester should go really well. I like my classes, I've prepared really well this first week, and I have drive I've lacked since my first semester of college.
2. I'm looking for a job. Things have slowed down a lot at the bookstore so I work very little. Which drives me crazy, cause I desperately need money. I'll take help with this from anyone. Fortunately I put my resume out there quite a bit before school started, cause this past week I've had NO time.
3. Afton. She's wonderful. My cousin Katie was talking about relationships on her blog recently and asked for people's opinions and I just said how all my experience has shown me that all anyone wants is someone just like them, but better. And that's what Afton is. I will have so much stress bearing me down and feel so discouraged, but then a little time with her and I feel so free and able to do what I need to do. And I just don't remember having so much fun with a person. I have so much respect for her and feel so blessed to have her at my side right now.
Things are really good right now.
I think one of the main reasons is because I've made an effort to take responsibility for how I'm living my life. Being responsible for how my decisions affect my family, Afton, my friends, and future children, etc. It's proved to be a really positive motivator.
There's The Rub.
cheers.
