So I have been giving a lot of thought lately on going to night school and getting a degree in something. Well...The verdict is in. I don't think I will until the kids are older. I just don't have the time, or energy to work full time and sacrifice my precious time to sit in a classroom. It boggles me how some people do it. I prefer to live life to the fullest and enjoy my time as if it were my last moment on earth. I reflected on this earlier today. I was actually running about 10 minutes late for work. As I was driving along, there was a really bad accident. The only thought that came to mind was that I could have easily been in the middle of all of it had I been on time. How my life just flashed in front of me. Life is short, I'm going to enjoy it as much as possible.

Independence Day
Another 4th of July in the works! Every year I think about the look in the kids' eyes when they got to watch a fireworks show. Now they are all older, it makes me miss it even more. I suppose one day I'll have grandkids to take in their place. Isn't that just like life? You take advantage of the little things that eventually you will miss. Not thinking at the time, "I should enjoy every second of this, because it won't last". It's a good reminder to me to embrace all this life has to offer. Because someday, I will miss this very moment.
So we got sneak away last weekend for a couple days with no kids. It really was like a breath of fresh air for me. I've come to the conclusion that I need some zen/peace/whatever in my life. So I've decided to start being a little self serving for a few minutes a day. There really is too much noise in my life right now. Not only physical noise, but mental noise. My mind needs silence occationally to keep functioning properly. How I am going to accomplish this relatively small feat is up in the air still. But if I want to be productive, I have to find a way. I'll let you know how successful I am. Hmmm....
