Should I drink Barefoot Wine, Barefoot?

Hello..  faithful journal.  Haven't written in you in  awhile.  Did you miss me?   Enjoying a rather relaxing Friday night sipping on a rather mellow glass of  Merlot by Barefoot.  Not bad, and I was in the mood for some red instead of white for a change.  Gotta mix it up you know?  Life is gotta be mixed up a bit to keep it, oh so interesting.  And you as you know I am living a "Dos equis"  type of life, don't you know?   Nah..  My life is great.  I am may have the occasional hysterical moment, but don't all women?   How do men live with us sometimes?  I know that women think that men can be boorish chauvinistic pigs, but at least they are pretty forthcoming in what they want..  Women generally like to beat around the bush.  Like it would be nice to have some ice cream.  Men are more like : "You know what, I want some ice cream, I think I will go down and get some."  Or he may also ask "Honey, would you mind running to the store and get me some ice cream?"   Not saying that all women are like this, but I have to admit, without meaning to, I have done this a time or two.  I have tried just to say what's on my mind, but again I think some women have this little fear of rejection lurking back in their skull, somewhere.  I guess this could work in many aspects of your life and not just in relationships.  If you want a raise just ask for it, if you don't get it, then well at least you made an effort.  Ask and you shall receive as the saying goes.

You are never going to know what the answer is, if you don't ask..  You may not get what you ask for if you don't ask.   It's a simple as that.  You may not get it the first time you ask, but eventually when the time is right you will get you what you need.    Being direct isn't always a bad thing, ladies.    Being a strong woman means going for what you want in life and never stopping until you get it.  Even if it means getting rejected.  Sometimes I get in the habit or even hinting with myself.  As strange as that may seem, I do that.  I am like I sure would like to go to Aromatherapy school, Instead of " I am going to go to Aromatherapy School.    I am trying to swap out this "hinting" to myself and being more direct in what I want in life.  It's just like the ice cream metaphor.   You want the ice cream and you go get it, but sometimes you need to ask for help in getting the ice cream.  But, either way you know what you want, and you will focus on a means to get what you want if you want it badly enough.     This a new year, make a mark
