My Long and Boring Diary

 I  have no idea how old my readers are; but I can remember when I was younger, my grandparents would go for a Sunday drive. No particular destination in mind. Just a nice, relaxing Sunday drive. There may be some older folks out there that still do this, but how can it possibly be relaxing anymore? Has anyone else noticed that driving just isn’t relaxing at all?   Forget about the ever increasing amount of traffic, the endless traffic lights, and the inevitable untimely roadwork. All of this comes with the territory. But now? Now we have an endless amount of angry and impatient drivers. I can’t tell you how many times in a day I have someone riding my ass nearly about to run me off the road. Come on people! What gives? Why must you drive like total assholes? Oh, and how can I forget about the stereotypical asshole drivers that almost always drive pickup trucks! Oh, I know you all know what I’m talking about here. I also know that a lot of you are agreeing with me but are...

  How many of you just feel lost and without a purpose? I recently “celebrated” a birthday and now I’m stuck with this feeling that I am just lost. Here I sit, into my thirties and I still don’t know what to do with my life. Am I the only one here?   I have tried all sorts of career paths yet can’t find the one that screams me. They say if you love what you’re doing you never work a day in your life. Be honest here, is this real? I have yet to find something that I can truly say this. My latest hobby, crochet is actually a new love of mine. I have been racking my brain trying to think of ways to monetize this hobby and make it a career. Can a hobby really turn into a career though? I have actually started making YouTube tutorials (stitchintimecrochet if you are at all interested in learning) but it’s not as easy as it seems to make a living off that idea. Maybe (hopefully) I’m wrong though. Perhaps my mistake is that I quit too soon. I certainly don’t have the answers here but...

 Alright how many of you out there have fallen for these schemes? Personally, I haven’t actually fallen victim to one of these but I certainly have come close! I guess if there’s anything I have learned this far, it’s that nothing ever comes easy. I guess you really do have to put your hard work and time into anything in order for it to pay off.  But I’m here to talk about how shitty it is that there isn’t actually such a thing as getting rich quick. And if it does exist, there is always a caveat to it. If anything sounds too easy I’m pretty positive there will always be a catch.  Here’s a recent example I can share.  My fiancé and I recently finished a job that on paper sounded amazing… a no-brainer really. We were told that we just had to paint a couple apartments for $25/hr each! I mean come on, who wouldn’t say no to this. Although I guess if you have zero experience with painting you might.  Anyways, we were thrilled to have this job knowing that it’s at le...

 Hello and thank you for visiting! This is my very first post on here and I felt it appropriate to introduce the purpose of this blog.  Do you ever feel like life seems to be getting away from you? Do you ever have those lingering thoughts like “God, I’m getting too old to still not know what to do with my life.” I get those a lot. I literally feel like I’m a Jack of all trades yet master of none.  Essentially, I would like to be a blogger that people can go to to read and resonate (or commiserate) with. Or maybe even perhaps there will be readers that will be thankful they are not in my position. Whatever the reason for reading, I hope to bring people together based on a common feeling/ position in life I want my readers to know that they aren’t alone. I know it’s easy for me to say. But, seriously, together, this can be a place where we all can talk through our shit.  I’m not here to tell some ridiculous success story and after a few steps or life lessons your life...
