My blog has been calling my name for weeks now, just can't seem to find the uninterrupted time to think long enough to type out a blog! Then when I do get some time, I have so much I wanna write about I get struck with writer's block because I can't decide where to start. So maybe a random post is in order??
Random thought #1
I have found that 2011 has brought many "forks in the road" for me. I think it's been 10 years since I have had to re-evaluate my life, choices and future so much. The funny part about that is, I have in the last 30 days, come to the same conclusion I did 10 years ago: "F it". A person can have dreams or goals, we can take the best step we can each day to make a choice that would put us closer to said dream or goal but in the end ... life is what it is. No amount of fretting, planning or scheduling can guarantee the obtainment of those dreams & goals. Unexpected things happen that move us back, force a detour or change our hearts forever (sometimes for the better, sometimes not) therefore making all the previous fretting, planning & scheduling a bit worthless. I'm by no means saying we shouldn't have dreams or goals; however, I am saying that I'm determined to live in the here & now and less in the future (which obviously is never a given). We have to focus on our immediate day to day lives and know that so long as our Heavenly Father is in our hearts & we look to Him for direction when our future becomes our present we will be exactly where He wants us to be AND we will have enjoyed the journey better because we didn't "over-think" the path to get there/here.

What's the purpose of underwear? I mean really ... I think that maybe Britney was onto something because if my entire family stopped wearing underwear the amount of my laundry would decrease by a fabulous amount. Just sayin, we'd use less water, detergent etc. Think about it ... I have a point.

The smartphone was created so we could all be in touch more, which seems to work fabulously for most people but I tell you what, I have never felt less contected since I got the blasted thing. I don't read my friends blogs, I don't write my blogs cause "I'd have to boot up the laptop" and I don't shop near as much because it's not as easy ... you know the credit card people are probably worried sick about me cause I have seemed to abandoned the internet shopping world. I tried to order flowers for my gf the other day and ended up having to CALL to order cause it was too much of a pain to do it on my phone ... can you believe it?? I had to dial a number and TALK to a human being. What is the world coming too. LOL!
Final Random thought for the night a/k/a #4
I was thinking that now that it's June, I should get around to sending out a Christmas Card w/ the family photo and newsletter. LMAO.
Good-night all ... till the marrow!
