Happy Monday! But are Mondays every really happy? I mean, I guess if you don't work on Mondays they would be happy but, you have these wonderful two days off, sleeping in, having fun, living life how you want, then bam....it's Monday and you gotta go back to work and put your wants on hold. I mean, unless you're fortunate enough to work for yourself and set your own hours and do whatever you want. That would be the life, the dream job....I'd sleep til noon and stay up all night.
I'm a bit of a night owl, I prefer to be up in the night time. It's quiet, there's no one about, the sun isn't trying to kill me. Oh yeah, I live in Texas and Texas is the land of the murderous sun. They say everything in Texas is trying to kill you and that is a true statement. Even the grass is trying to kill you with it's stupid stickers that send shockwaves of pain through your hole limb, whichever one is unfortunate enough to come in contact with said sticker. We have poisonous snakes, spiders, mosquitoes as big as house cats and who knows what else. Not to mention the 'water bugs' which are really just HUGE roaches that crawl up through your drains and try to invade your house when it rains. Thankfully it usually doesn't rain too much here except for this year....we had lots of rain this year so we had lots of roaches....yuck.
This Monday is not so bad, it's a bit slow, it's the beginning of a new month so there's always things to do to close out the last month. Thankfully, I did not have a lot of that this month and I got most of it done very early so today is a bit of a lazy day. Been considering finding a different job lately though. I love my job, I really do, but there's a lot of things that have changed, and I also know that soon we'll be moving to a building that will have lots of screaming children in it.....at least it will have an indoor playground...which has children playing on it...and kids scream when they're having fun. That's ok outside, but I can't imagine being inside with that all day long. That and I really don't like small children. I prefer junior high and older, they're usually a bit more behaved and not as squealy. I mean...they can be squirly and scream, and whatever else, but they usually are just a bit more in control lol. Plus, they also take care of themselves and are super helpful, and insightful. I just love watching the teenage age because they really are becoming their own person and are basically mini adults. Most just need some guidance and mentoring to figure out who they are and what they want to do with their life. Being a mentor and thinking of yourself as a mentor is much easier better than being just a parent. Toddlers are a nightmare lol. I LOVE little kids, but only for short periods of time....I don't do well with having a toddler around for long periods of time. I figure, we all have our gifts, and some of us are just meant to help the teenagers which is awesome in my book. I would love to foster a teen or two...I feel I have so much to offer and there's so many teens that just need a guiding hand. Everyone wants the small kids but no one wants to deal with teens and that's all I want.
As for the working for ourselves...hubs and I are are working on a game. The goal is to make a game, sell it, hope it does decent, pay off bills, and live how we want LOL. Games take time to invent and create and all of that so, that could be years in coming. It's fun to have something to work toward though. I also have aspirations to be a published author. Some day I will actually finish one of the books I've started and become published. I love writing and I love immersing myself in a completely fantasy world. Not that I don't love my life but, it's always fun to see another perspective and another story or life.
Well...that's the musings of this redhead on this fine Morning. I'm tired, I didn't sleep well...I woke up with a charlie horse in my shin....it still hurts lol. It's days like this I feel my age and it feels like I'm 20 years older than I am...but ah well, such is life as you age. At least I'm losing weight and getting healthy so I can enjoy this older age as I get each year. Have a blessed day, don't do anything I wouldn't do, and always keep your chin up and your heart open.
