To be or not to be: Pregnant????


Hello blogger world...how's it going...this must be a pretty good month for me this is like my third post :-D. Okay I'm over it now...on to the business @ hand, which really isn't much...just the fact that seems like everyone I know is having a child...from the 17 year old former schoolmate to the 38 year old boss. Why am I being left out. Okay lets weigh the options 1) I could get pregnant and keep the child while still successfully completing college{I've seen it done} 2) I could wait until I get the degree but however am not stable enough to support the child 3) or I could go with the my first instinct and not have a child at all, period....hmmmm decisions decisions...You're probably wondering what brought this on...well the other day I was on the devil's website (a.k.a. Myspace) and noticed that a lot of the guys and girls that I went to high school with, even the ones that completed at least one year of college are now with child, have child(ren), etc. I mean come on people stop fitting into the god damn stereotype of urban people...having kids while still in your teens, living off of government support (WIC & Welfare), no real path (working @ Safeway for the REST OF YOUR LIFE).....honestly the pressure is starting to get to me....the last straw: when the #3 person in last year's senior class got pregnant while completing her freshman year @ Bucknell...um come on hunny at least finish your freshman year of college.............DAMN!!!!! Alright I'm done and as for my maternal instinct whenever it kicks in I'll just borrow my nephew for a day or so and that will get that feeling right outta me....until next post smooches.....

Just gotta be me

So I went home this weekend...I had so much fun...I miss my family so much sometimes, but while I was home I learned something about myself I can't live MY life for my family. It's time for me to venture out into to the world with the training they have given me and do my own thing...therefore I'm getting a tattoo...this is just a sign of my personal growth and freedom..God forbid my parent trip but like I said this isn't about rebelling it's about doing ME

Three states, One Girl

No, this is not the beginning of a bad joke. It's actually the beginning of a cool trip. I had a conference in Boston a couple of weeks ago. That was my first time in MA, while there I took the opportunity to check off a couple of additional NE states that I'd never been too. Depending on who you ask NY may or may not be considered NE but in any case previously I'd only been as far north as CT. With this trip I also saw NH & ME. I actually had to look up the abbreviation for Maine because I'd never been and couldn't remember what it was 😅.  Coastal Maine was beautiful. I've obviously been on the east coast waters before but seeing it as a lush green forestscape was another thing entirely. I definitely see why it's the setting of so many Stephen King stories, it's hauntingly beautiful. New Hampshire was a bit more rustic than I expected in the most delightful way. Massachusetts (Boston) was fun to explore and I spent so much time doing something I ne...
