Day 15

Yay!!!  I am officially half way through NaBloPoMo.  I now understand why other blog writers find this so hard.  The truth is my life is actually pretty boring and there isn't always something to share.  I have found it hard to be creative on a daily basis.  I have also found it hard to remember to blog every day and to set aside time for it.  I have decided that I would do well to use the voice recorder on my phone to record my thoughts though.  I have come up with several great topic ideas and  written almost complete blog posts in my head during my morning drive to work.  It is the only time of the day that I truly have to myself.  So that is really when I can get lost in my own thoughts and really examine what I feel about a particular subject.  I am just glad that I have gotten this far into the month without skipping a day.  I just hope I can keep it up.  I know next week will be rough with Thanksgiving and all the preparations that are going to go into that.  But I am sure I will be able to find some time once the Sheriff leaves for work and Kiddo is off to dream land.  Let's just hope I am not so exhausted that I forget!

Maybe you can talk about your job in future posts?

I totally recommend using a voice recorder for blog posts. I've used mine several times to quickly get out the thoughts in my head to review later. And yes, it's also usually while driving across the bay!

13 Things to Know Before You Meet Me

So, The Blathering is this weekend and 50 fabulous ladies are going to be converging on my city to take it by storm for 3 days.  I am terrified and excited all at the same time.  I do not know any of these women in real life and most of them I have only meet over the internet in the last couple of months as the attendee information has been posted.  Several have shared 13 things to know about me so I figured I would jump on the bandwagon as well.  Here it goes: I live in Round Rock and work in Austin.  However, I have only lived here for 4 years so I still have no idea where anything is.  I rely on my GPS for that reason.  Please don't laugh at me for this. But I am willing and able to drive around those who need transportation this weekend.  For the same reason listed above, I also have no idea what is really fun to do in Austin.  There are still a lot of tourist-y things I want to do like tour the Capitol and see the bats fly from the Congress Street Bridge.  If anyone is in

Random Thoughts and Observations

I am extremely easily annoyed these days.  It doesn't take much to get under my skin which makes me an unpleasant person to be around.  Knowing this, I've been keeping to myself a lot so I don't just completely go off on someone. I am also more emotional.  I almost cried in a meeting this week when one of the PMs welcomed me back to the office and commented that I looked thrilled to be there.  The comment didn't bother me because it was true.  It just re-emphasized how much I want to be home with Jackson.  And then I did it again the next day driving to work just because I really didn't want to go. The daycare situation is really stressing me out.  We have just over 2 weeks to find someone to watch Jackson while Chris and I are at work since our perfect in-home daycare fell through last week.  I am really not happy about this.  I never wanted to put my kids in daycare but I have no other options.  Nor do I have any idea how we are going to pay for this.

Why I Hate Dating

I was not a fan of dating before I got married so you can imagine that I am even less of a fan of dating now that I have divorced to add to my status. I never had much luck in the relationship world and being that I am still new to the Austin area, I have found it hard to meet people. So I have been trying the world of online dating via such websites as Match.com, Yahoo Personals, and eHarmony . Granted while I have had some luck in the form of J and James, the majority of my matches have been misses and it has been months since I have had a real connection with any of the guys I have been matched with. I received an email last week that is a prime example of why I hate dating again. Here is that email, word for word, with only personal information removed: your cute and you sound like a very sweet girl, but please dont take me to a musical, lol . im rob, i work graveyard so i dont wake up till like 3 or 4 in the evenings. and i try to be in bed before the sun rises. hit me up
