Counting The Minutes...

12.

I have 12 minutes until I get to step away from my desk for half an hour. It may not sound like much, but on days like to day, it's a life saver. Today has been so incredibly slow, I don't want to jinks myself, but I'm just getting a little stir crazy. Yesterday was super busy, now today, when I'm here by myself covering the phones...nothing. I guess it's a good omen. I don't want to me going crazy all day.

So, I've been kind of slacking on my blogging lately. I think it's because Justin and I are just starting to get acclimated to living together and frankly, by the time I get home from work, cook dinner, eat dinner, do some laundry, random cleaning and make lunches for the next day - I'm beat. I haven't been sleeping very well lately either, so I just need to let my body/brain adjust to my new life.

I already know there is one thing on my 101 in 1001 list that I will not accomplish... I've decided to give up selling Mary Kay. I know some of you are saying "what!? she just started"... others are saying "yeah, I'm not surprised"... Well, I'm not surprised either. It just took me way out of my comfort zone and frankly, when I'm working full-time I just don't have time to do everything that I would have wanted to do with the business. AND I would never get used to cold calling people to do pre-profiling or putting myself out there to get new clients. I'm just not that type of person. I also didn't get the friendships that I expected out of it, I honestly could have put more of myself into it, but it just seemed really "cliquey" (I know that's not a word, get over it) and seemed like I was just another one of the recruits. I didn't like that. Honestly, I could think of a million things that I would rather do on a Monday night, Saturday and Sunday then subjecting myself to something I wasn't confident in or even liked most days... So I'm just working on getting some of my investment back by selling my consultant supplies and the inventory I have left and using the crap out of my discount while it lasts, lol. Oh well... on to bigger and better things.

5 minutes...

The wedding is litterally just around the corner. 5 weeks. I will be a married woman in 5 weeks. It's just craziness. We had the shower the first weekend in March, it was beautiful. The next big event is the Bachelorette Party which is being planned by my Maid of Honor, my sister, Laura. She's been completely shocking me with her MOH abilities. She could make a career out of it :) I have a feeling she did some googling shortly after I got engaged to find out her responsibilities. Lol.

3 minutes...

I have really been feeling the need to go back to school lately. I'm just still stuck on what exactly I want to study. There are pros and cons to each arena I lean towards. Education - would have to get a second bachelors, hard to find a job, etc. MSW - not sure how I would manage the part-time internship, my full-time job and school...I'm having anxiety just thinking about it. Business - what if I end up finding out that I don't want to start my own business/non-profit OR I do start one and it's dead after a year and then I'm stuck with no job, no money and no health insurance... a lot of "what ifs".

LUNCH TIME!

While I leave you to ponder the rest of my life, I am going to go nuke my Lean Cuisine Beef and Brocoli and chit chat with Wanda.

Enjoy the rest of your day. I promise to update more soon.
