Random Thoughts

I've created this blog as sort of a journal. I have an account on MySpace (which I never check) and an account on Facebook. However, neither of these really allow you to put thoughts down in the same way. They are typically for people to get a quick idea of where you are and some trivial information, however, they don't allow a person to really reflect on an issue or something major (at least not that I've found). In addition they don' t work at my work. So this will meet both criteria.

I am excited about life! I am overwhelmed at times being a full-time student and worker. I, however, am enjoying life (most of the time) and realize that it could be a lot worse. I have a job that I enjoy (for the most part), I am able to go to school, my husband is going to school, and I have a wonderful Grandfather that is allowing us to live with him while we are trudging through this stage of our lives. I wonder at this phenomena. Around 100 years ago it was common that several generations lived in the same house, and yet now if you say you live with your parents or relatives, or even next door to them you become labeled as "one of THOSE people". What is up with that? As if our relatives are people that we shouldn't want to be around all the time. I love my family and enjoy most of the time that I spend with them.
