Step forward, Step back, Watch your step, What is the next step?
Change your mind, Change of heart, Change for a Change, Change directions?
Been doing a lot of reflecting lately -lots on my mind- and I've thought about writing about things a million times -some possible titles would be -Twists and Turns of life, A mid-life crisis?, Just going crazy ? -Lol -Anyways the thing is we all probably have times where it seems we don't know if we're taking steps forward or backward. And change -something that will always happen -For me I've always been the type of person who doesn't really like change -probably part of being more introverted I can accept change more if I'm prepared ahead of time-but, life doesn't always work that way. I think most people like to be prepared though- especially for big life changes -take for instance if you're expecting a baby -there's a difference if you were planning on that or not -but, no matter what at least you have a few months to prepare and it helps when you have people you can rely on -I've had different experiences on that when I was a single mom and when my husband and I had baby -and before people start thinking I'm having another baby -I'm not! In fact there's not really a big life change going on here -I guess all this rambling is just that I've experienced when people you thought were there for you -aren't- and it's a painful almost grieving type of experience. And it's not anything to do with my husband either -Although I am glad my husband is here to help me.
There's that and just the question that's always in the background -Where am I going- In a professional/career type of way? -Should I go back to work? If so what kind of work? I've been keeping any eye out on possible "internet writing gigs" for years but, have noticed a change in that scene -not, sure if it's as wide spread as it seems -I just know where it started for me -ParentsConnect is closing down, not that I've been on there recently but, it's gone the way of other sites -Some local people may remember Ttownmoms and 918 Moms (that was taken over by Money Saving Queen-which is no longer ran by the person that started it) so, there's a lot of changes with those. Anyways not to get too rambly the same Mom Mayhem stuff had been going on -taking care of the kids, pets, home, Getting the kids to school -PTA stuff, writing on Examiner, -etc. things are the same and yet different - What is the next step?..
Well, spring has sprung around here and I was wondering if the 
So, that's what's going on in my neck of the woods -How about you? Be sure to
Ugh -It's kinda embarassing that I still wear them -just around the house now though- That way my crazy cat won't mess with my new ones too much. 
Since it seems everyone was talking about this wrinkle spray I got some -and yep it does work pretty good! (Just ignore the toilet in the background -I generally hang my clothes on the shower curtain rod to spray my shirt -etc ;)
This 1 picture I would look at often in her house -it's now hanging in my bedroom -I believe it's a Harrison Fisher print -which I also got a Harrison Fisher book -as shown in the picture- here's a little information about
My hair can get quite frizzy and this helps tame the frizz -I'm open to other options but this is 1 of the cheapest/easiest options I've found that works for me.
Well, I can't show just one -So, here's a few - We pretty much have a mix of about everything -homemade ornaments, store bought ones, fancy ones, to kid -cartoon character ones. And even though they're all different kinds and colors I do have somewhat of a traditional theme of gold, red, and green.
I also like cranberry sauce -I'm ok with different variations of that too - even if it com
As a waitress I might get a nice customer,an angry customer, or a sleazy guy that hit on me ; As a customer service rep. I might get a nice customer,an angry customer, or a sleazy guy calling in to order an "adult" channel and/or hit on me (Why must there always be a sleazy guy?!) Not only do you deal with customers, but also coworkers;bosses -and we know jobs can be a minefield of political B.S. -And I've had some doozys! Good bosses vs. bad bosses can make a lot of difference! For instance my CSR job (at DTV) -I went through a lot of bosses -some ok -some not -I was even subjected to racism -kinda weird seeing as how I'm white -But, I believe there was some reverse racism that I was a victim of and other coworkers -by the same person. Luckily after talking with the manager I got to switch supervisors. Not much was done to the supervisor-he even later became a manager -I heard after I left he eventually did get fired after more complaints though. Of course that's not to say I was always the best employee -I've never been too excited to stay long after my shift,willingly sign up for overtime, or gladly work holidays -Even though I had to do all of the above at times. But, back to jobs so- Yeah I'd say any job dealing with a bad boss and the public makes for a pretty bi-polar job! Many stories to tell -again my CSR job- going from customers that are crying,to feeling like a super hero that saved the customer's day, to getting cussed out - all in a day's work ;) And to think now that the kids are in school -I'm thinking about going back to this world! What I really need is a job that has a good boss,good schedule M-F (maybe 10am-2pm) flexible when needed, oh and good pay would be nice too -If you know anything like that let me know ;)
Cindy over at 
Hmmm -What could it be? ;)
So many great performances -like Titanic -even if she's gone more blonde -she's still ok in my book 
Oh and did I mention my fav actor/actress both seem like great parents too?!
