Hey
It's has been a while. I don't even know where to begin. Life has been crazy. Life has been all over the place. Life has been...well, life has been life. We all have our ups and downs. Some days; most days it seems like we are down way down. There hasn't been very many ups days. And that sucks giant you know what's.
Hubby and I were discussing one day about going on a vacation. Naturally, we can't just up and go. We have to save for trip and I need to plan things out. I like to believe I am an "up and go" type of person. I wouldn't only be like that if I had the funds to be able to do that, ie, rich from winning the lotto and not have to work for the rest of my life. A girl can dream.
So, we had decided that we would safe up for a vacation. I looked into "lay-a-way vacations" and found a few deals that sounds really good. In fact they were good deals. Then we got hit with the proverbial financial Mack truck. Without getting into specifics, going on vacation moved even farther out of reach than it was. A few choice woks were thrown around. Mostly they were being thrown in one direction. But you know what? I've had it and I am tired of it. How is any of it fair? I'm 30. I've bust my ass for what little I got and I will most likely bust my ass till the day I die. But while busting my ass, I want to enjoy life, I want to see the world.
I was beginning to feel like I was being taken advantage of. Hell, I still feel that way. I am told that that isn't the case. But I can't help the way I feel.
Things haven't changes....not fast enough for my liking at least.
Fast forward to recent times. My friends whom I met in a PCOS group on my space announced that she was getting married to her long time on and off boyfriend. They used to date back in the day, lost contact and now have reconnected and they are getting married. I couldn't be happier for her. The original date was in March 2014. So I thought I will safe up money to attend especially since I would be going out of state, whether to her current city or and home town. Then she threw a wrench in the mix. She announced that they were moving the wedding up. I told her I would to make it but I needed to find coverage and get approved for time off. Then she threw another wrench....She asked me to be a bridesmaid. Needless to say in a few days the 4th of this month actually. I will be going on my first flight move than half way across the county.
