Today at work, we had a Tornado warning that kept us in a hallway....with other co-workers...for a freaking hour. Yes, you read that right, a full 60 minutes of being in a subwayish tube. We had people lined up on one side and people lined up on the other side. Some stayed in the middle, but me and my friend were on the side chit chatting. As I sat there listening to the buzz of convo's around me, I couldn't help but ask myself, 'is this all I have accomplished'?
This past weekend, I had a pity party for myself. I am usually not the one who needs picking up. However, there I was driving to my gurl's house to walk her pretty doggies, and I drove through the hot spot of Auburn, Carl and hold on! Winder.
For those who don't live here, picture 'Deliverance' except scenery gets worse as you drive. So there I was thinking about how much I have in savings, (almost none), how much I had in my checking account, not enough to fill my little Toyota and my birthday is coming up, which means yet, another year older. Lucky me. Fall is also a time when I used to have an on-off relationship but that ended 6 years ago. I'm fine with that being done, but I couldn't help but think I have not progressed much since then. I still work at the same company, (love it), same job more or less, same car, house etc. I am almost 801 years old, and other than my two beautiful, thoughtful, bouncers for sons, I have no accomplishments. As I sat there in the hall today, I thought, hmmmm, maybe a higher being is trying to tell me something.But what I ask? Unless I finish my degree there is no jumping up my current corporate ladder, I really have no interest in going back to school anyway. Next option, I take care of my pets, but do I want to have a 'pet sitting' job? highly unlikely. I love blogging, but I was told by Shelly and Deb that my run on sentences are annoying and I need to work on them. (how am I doing so far?) So that leaves me with what? Good question, when I find out, I will share with you all.
