Week 2...

Welcome to week 2...So far so good I think.

I am remembering to blog...that has to count for something. I am currently watching Hoarders. This show is a reminder to me to not be this way...OMG...its crazyness.

This week I am going to hit 2 topics...maybe 3.

The first is my life without facebook is going okay. I have been without it since January 2nd and I really dont miss it. People still make fun and they have bets on how long it will be before I give up but I am staying strong. I cant wait for a month...that will really show them.

Going a long with that is my other New Year's resolution...to be in better contact with my Mom's side of the family. This side I havent always been good about being in contact with. The glue that kept us all together was my Mom & my Gramma Margie. They have been gone for 15 years now and that is a long time to keep distance. No more...I am going to make an effort every week. I hope that it wont be for nothing...I feel the need to reconnect. So far they have been the most supportive of my situation...that means a lot to me.

I have been thinking a lot about where I want my life to go. I have so many dreams and aspirations but feel that there is no way to acheive them...I would love to go back to school and get my nursing degree. I would love to deliver babies or work in pediatrics. However, there is no money for me to do this right now. Bills have to be paid, Alex has to be cared for, etc.
I dream at night sometimes of having enough money to do the things I want to do in life. Be able to go to school, buy a house, go on a family vacation & just live comfortably and not worry about things.

I guess that is why they call them dreams...right???
