ladies night out and other fun facts


here is the missing photo from the previous post. for some reason i could not get the picture to upload last time. that's my mom on the right with her mouth hanging open. she was saying "florabama" instead of cheese. while this is not the most flattering photo i just wanted everyone to see where i prefer to spend my free time these days.

i'm flying out saturday for thailand. my flight is @ 2:15 pm.

but before that i'm taking my state exam for real estate -thursday @ 1:30 please pray that i pass this the first time. i don't want to be a statistic. you have to make a 70 to pass if people don't pass it's not because they fail-they usually make between 65-69. i don't want that to be me.



i'll keep you guys posted on the happenings in southeast asia.

highlights

Since many of my posts have been rantings or sentimental moments as of late. i thought i would share some of the high points.

1) I went to the Florabama for the 1st time....the kicker with this one...i went with my mother and a whole bunch of middle aged women. i have a picture to prove it...look for yourself.

2) i went on a date and had a good time! i don't really need to expound, do i ?

3) i passed the final for my real estate class. one hurdle cleared

4) i am completely moved out of my house in montevallo. so there will be no more posts complaining about having to do that. i know i know everyone is breathing a sigh of relief.

procrastinators...mount up

hey guys, guess what i suck at time management! for all of you who didn't know it i am a hardcore procrastinator. i live by this phrase "tomorrow is my favorite day of the week". here are words of wisdom from unwise. do not and i repeat do not, wait until 2 weeks before you leave for a foreign country to pack up your house, take a big exam that you don't feel at all prepared for, throw in a vacation and a day trip to nashville. uggghh what the heck was i thinking?

for those of you in town if you would like to help me..moving day is may 20. hopefully i'll see you by me portable on demand storage unit!

and we're back

so i have another date. not with the same person. the one thing i am seeing through this is how scared i am of screwing things up in a relationship. somehow i think going to i don't know a million relationship seminars in my life has maybe done more harm than good. i feel like my expectations for the person are out the roof. i fear that i will make the wrong choice, or that he won't be a "leader" or that others will think i have settled. all of the things i have been taught about relationships sound good in theory i just don't know how much it happens like that. i keep hearing my own advice to people-that there isn't a rule book and everyone's story is different. i tend to give more grace to others than myself it seems. i am seeing that i am almost paralyzed by my fear of repeating past mistakes or just making bad decisions period.
