Today is all about distractions... I will be 26 in two more days and I'm having a positively terrible time accepting the fact. I am not ready to be old. I'm not ready to be close to making important life decisions either... the Mr. still has an interest in being a parent... I really don't but told him I would let him know for sure by the time I turned 30... my time is ticking down! I don't want to think about any of it soo here we go with distractions...
When I think of the future I don't think in terms of being OLD... I think in terms of being HAPPY. So today I'll go with things that make me happy.
Some day down the road I hope to live here:
I apologize for the terrible picture... it was taken at night(clearly)... through the car window and the car was dirty to top it all off. It's currently a realty office but one day it will be my home... or if I decide I don't want to live in Abingdon I'll just build one that looks like it. :) It's lovely and looking at it makes me happy.
But I know I'd miss this:
I think the view from my front porch is one of the prettiest in the world. It's definitely serene which is just what I need most days. And I'm pretty sure I'll be looking at it for at lest another 25 years... as thats when our mortgage will be paid off on this...
Which also makes me feel happy and accomplished too... at 21 I was already a home owner. And now the porch needs to be stained and the flower bed needs to be dug up and re-designed and the kitchen faucet needs to be replaced and the bathroom needs new tile and the living room needs to be painted and I want to rip out all the carpet and there is no crown molding anywhere... but it's mine and I got to build it and share it with my best friend and #1 fan...
He definitely makes me happy (most days haha) and is for sure an enormous part of my future so I guess he gets to be included in the post too.
I think I'm distracted enough for the time being. I'll leave you again with a song... enjoy!
Did I ever tell you John Mayer and myself have a secret relationship? Shhh... It's pretty awesome! Loved this post! Don't sweat too much about getting old... your not! Don't worry too much about anything :)
ReplyDeleteI think my co-worker is probably ready to strangle me and John Mayer... for the past 2 weeks I've played pretty much nothing but.
ReplyDeleteI have secret boyfriends too! Only mine aren't so much secret because in my old age (teehee) I'm losing my filter... and anyone who's spent any time around me knows Justin Timberlake and Demarcus Cousins are my boyfriends... I knew it was bad when my father-in-law showed up at the house with a life sized Demarcus Cousins poster for me LOL.
