New name, new direction

so i changed the name and thus the direction of my blog. i had no real direction or purpose other than to write something; hence the previous title, "Write Something Already!"

i suppose it was a good thought; got me thinking, 'well, what the heck am i gonna write about?!' and obviously the initial entries were just that; me trying to figure out what i was gonna do. i spent some time yesterday reading other blogs. one in particular i really like; by an 'actual' writer who happens to blog. she's quite interesting and i've noticed that she makes links to other blogs in her entries; however, i haven't quite learned how to do that yet. i'm still busy changing the color, font sizes and layout of my blog at the moment. : )

anyhow, during some quiet time i had this morning, either in the shower, or during the drive to work in my 2nd car (which is quiet b/c it has no radio or other means of playing music) i thought that i should figure out just how much time is left before i turn 30. today is March 26, 2008 and my birthday is June 5, 1981; making June 5, 2011: 3 Years, 2 Months and 10 Days from now.

as i tried to explain, in the description of the blog, i think about turning 30 a lot these days, and for several reasons. i was thinking that one way to start things off, would be to write about those things i am looking for/hoping to attain during this time... so here's a list and explanations or stories related will follow in other posts:
  • at least one other baby (i already have one child, Josiah David, he's 3-years-old)
  • a job that i am fulfilled in (as in, i like the pay, the hours, the tasks, the purpose)
  • a greater self confidence/greater understanding of myself
  • a better relationship with Christ (and more specifically speaking, i'd like Shalom in my life)
  • a husband... (i do believe that he should come before having another child, i just wish i had another baby more often than i wish i had a husband. LOL)
  • development in my hobbies (writing, baking, and the newly added gardening)

i'm certain there are some other things, but that's the jest of it. i just feel as if my life is missing some things, or that it should be improved upon, and i have little to no patience! : )

i suppose that's good for now. i have nothing to do at work today. so outside of planning my shopping lists, reading the news online, and wishing i had access to Facebook; i won't have much to do, and just might delve into the first topic.... which is the LOUD ticking of my biological clock!
