Career Confusion
Growing up and deciding what to do with your life is hard business man. Finding a direction is SO much easier said than done!
Lately I have been trying to decide what path/career I want to work towards. Enrollment for the spring semester is just around the corner and I don't want to blindly just sign up for classes and hope that they fit a requirement anymore.
I mean, I have narrowed it down to a career in Human Services, but I'm not sure where I fit in this helping field. Social work or corrections? Or a mix of both??
I met with my teacher today to get some direction and advice and now I feel more lost than ever. I just would like things to fall in my lap. And all make sense. But I suppose that is the lazy tendency in me.
While I would love to be a probation office I am afraid that I lack the toughness to enforce the law aspect of that job. And I don;t want to just provide therapy for clients. That seems too draining and boring for me. Plus lets face it, I don't think I could sit and listen to other people talk all day-I have a loud mouth and I like to talk.
Ugh see where my frustration is?
Hmm here's to hoping that career stuff makes sense soon!

Quick Rambles
A few things that have happened in life lately...
We went to the pumpkin patch this weekend and I forgot the camera.
What. A. Failure.
Since last night was my mother-in-law's birthday we all went to a Thai restaurant (why is that word so dang hard for me to spell?) to celebrate.
Pad Thai is delicious. End of story. I think I could live the rest of my life eating just that and I would be happy and content.
Im slightly sad that the Jersey Shore is over for the season. I kinda looked forward to that train wreck every week.
While I love that fall is here and winter is around the corner, I do NOT love how ridiculously dry my skin is. Cake's is too. We went through a huge thing of lotion in just under 2 weeks.
Cake has a fascination licking my face. This phase needs to pass. And quickly.

Random thoughts
So I have been fighting a cold for a little over a week now. And I must say that I am completely OVER IT. My head is just so stuffed up.
Cake gave me said cold for my birthday. Super sweet of her right?
Since my cold is making it difficult for me to think straight, this blog is going to be short and sweet.
Things on my mind today:
-The play area at the mall is full of germs.
-I use Cake as an excuse to buy Disney stuff. Its sad really.
-I LOVE my scentsy warmer. It makes my house smell so yummy.
-I find it bizarre that my kid eats fresh broccoli by the handful. Although its super good for her, it makes her breath smell something awful.
-Every room in my house is cluttered and needs to be cleaned. But because Im sick and have literally no motivation/energy, every room will continue to be cluttered.
-My husband is awesome. (he told me to type that)
-I wish I was 2 again and could be bribed with m&ms.
-I am avoiding doing my reading for school next week. So inevitably I will be cramming it in Sunday night. Like a total losah.
-Cake and Chief are hilarious together. Their favorite thing is to cram into Chief's crate at the same time.
So enough rambles for the evening. I have to convince my child that using the potty isnt the end of the world.

Hello Friends!
So I've finally decided to start a new blog. And hopefully Ill keep up with this time.
(Im crossing my fingers!)
So today we had an assessment for Cake with the school district. I walked away from it dumbfounded that my baby is almost 3. School is literally just around the corner for her. Im baffled as to where the time has gone! I swear just yesterday she was a chunky baby rolling around on the floor and collecting formula in her many neck rolls. Now she is a walking, talking, stubborn, sassy kid.
For instance today she was walking around the house in her dad's motorcycle boots (so really she was shuffling around-those boots weight like 5 pounds each!) demanding that I paint her toenails glitter purple. And then when I sat down to do as I was told by my bossy toddler, she ripped the toenail polish from me yelling, NO! I DO IT. MY TURN.
The demanding has already begun.
Im so not looking forward to her teenage years.
