Here I am


Another day..another blog

Ok I know I haven’t been blogging in awhile but I have good reason. Usually I blog at work, well my work does this thing where we have 60 minutes of quota time a day. I have to use them in ten minute spans so if I use it then get interrupted those 10 min get flushed down the toilet. That is just the beginning of my distaste for my job. Yeah I should be thankful I have a job and I am but that does not mean I am happy with my job. Working in the field I do you come across a lot of people who you do not feel sorry for. Then you start not caring at all. This is the point I am at today.

I need to do more with my life. Yeah, yeah I know I am whining but seriously. Maybe if I blog about it I will actually do it. Good motivation, we will see if it works. So what do I want to be when I grow up…an artist. I love to paint, take pictures and make jewelry. Oh I wish I could make a living doing these things. I have been dabbling in photography now for a few months and must say I really am having a blast. Take a look at my pictures on Flickr (ambersaccents). I have been slacking on the jewelry not because I don’t like it but because I do not have time. Story of my life…wake up drive 45 min to work..work 8-5 drive home 45 min. Come home make dinner, shower and spend time with hubby. By the end of that I am so flippin tired I don’t want to do anything, then I cant sleep b/c I wasn’t physically active again, then repeat the next day. Weekends are the only time I get to do what I want, usually, but as I am sure with all of you my plans are constantly changing and I am trying to recover and rest from the week before. By Sunday I am freaking about where my weekend went. I shouldn’t complain, but I need to vent. Society has so many pressures on us now that we are forced to live this face paced lifestyle all of the time. I want to slow down and enjoy life. Right now I can’t enjoy myself because I am so worried about what I have to do next. It does not help that I just can’t stop finding crafty things to do.

Ok I will stop my bitching now.
