Alright world.... since my overwhelming desire to become a MRS. expedited my college experience to a mere 3 years instead of 4, I never got that "maybe I'll change my major 16 times" period. No, I had a life to get started (and how...) I had the man, I had the ring and dammit I was sprinting down that aisle and the ink was not even dry on the diploma.
My brother-in-law is now in his 6th year in college, and still hasn't the slightest as to what he will be slaving away at for the next 25 years. He has had all this time to figure it out on his parents' dime and still continues to ponder. Now, not that I for a minute believe that ANYONE knows EXACTLY what they want to do for the rest of their lives, and even those 2 people that do know rarely get to actually DO it. But wouldn't it be fabulous if you just could do anything... no school, no resumes, no "tell me your weaknesses" interview (total trick question by the way)....you just got to wake up one morning and say "I think I'll be a zookeeper today.." you know... just how Elmo does it.
I have NEVER had a strong desire to be anything but a MRS. and a MOM (check...check..) so now what? I'm glad you asked.... World, I am going to write a book! Say what? You heard me.... I am going to start writing books and I'm starting with Hailey.
I am giving myself 2 years to have an actual children's book published...which gives me plenty of time to land on Oprah before she "retires" since my whole "going into labor at the rodeo" didn't play out for me. I have always loved the idea of putting my randomness and creativity to use. So why not pour myself into something that will benefit not only my own child but (hopefully) dozens if not millions of other bright little stars out there...
so here goes nothing.....and mark my words... 2012 isn't just for Armageddon anymore... it's the year MRS.MOMMY gets published.
