First off, I am not a writer nor have I ever blog in my entire life. That being said if you are a stickler on grammar then stop reading now! P.S. Sometimes I even like to make up my own words. The reason I am starting now is because I really don’t know where I am in my life. Well frankly interested things keep happening and since being married many adventures have come my way. I figure I am just going to post everything and anything that happens to me, around me, with me, etc. me. Why? You may ask … well no reason.
This is like taking the first step to what I want to do with my life. See putting my words in a semi public light means I am letting the world into my thoughts and my heart…THAT IS FREAKIN SCARY. This gives so many people the ability to judge my thoughts and action. Why I am doing this again? Oh yeah because if I let fear live for me and I don’t take this first step I may never get to where I really want or where I am truly happy.
I just moved to Houston in late November. I have been here for three months. I have not found a job yet because I can’t make up my mind as to what I want to do in this big world of Houston. I’ve had my own Wedding coordinating business for four years now. It was based out of College Station and now that I have moved to Houston I really just want to be done with it and not start it off here. Not because I am lazy and don’t want to take the time to network all over again, it’s because is that what makes me happy? I mean managing Brides, Mother of the Brides, and Maid of Honors isn’t really the easiest life. Also, staying up till 2am most Saturday is not really great for the body either. What I like about it is having my very own business and not having to worry about when to ask off. I think I fell in love with the entrepreneurship of it all. Basically I have wasted three months trying to figure out if I should do that or not.
I have been looking for things that I enjoy and seeing how I can make that a career. Sometimes when I talked with my father (who is in the oil business), my husband (also in the oil business), and see oil crisis on the TV I want to become a geologist. I have always been interested in it. Why I am not doing it? FEAR, fear I won’t be smart enough to pass the courses and fear that I won’t be the best.
Music is a passion of mine, I love singing and dancing. Again, I can’t get myself to do something about it. I am thinking maybe take acting/vocal lessons someone? Or take more guitar lessons to become better? Or just enter contest?
I took one chance at this about three years ago and tried out for American Idol. Ohhh myyyy awful experience! One of my sisters went with me, thank the lord, poor thing she was miserable. It was in the Texas August weather…SO HOT! It was held at the old Dallas Cowboy stadium. We had to go Friday morning at like 4 am to get an audition ticket. We ended up getting there at 4am and there was already a huge line just for the ticket which tryouts weren’t even till Sunday! We finally got the ticket 3 hours later!! Then when Sunday came we got there again at.
Now I am thinking why not try to be a licensed contractor? What sparked this idea was that my husband and I have been looking for houses in the Heights. We want one we can buy and fix up. I love redoing things, I always have to be doing some sort of little project. We live in an apartment now which drives me crazy because I don’t have the space to do tinker around. I got to the point the other day when I realized that it is an addiction. My hands were aching to fix something, paint something, hell anything! I can’t figure out if maybe that is my way of escaping from the world or is it something I love doing and could make it a career. Us buying a house also sparked my interested in starting a blog. A couple of my friends wanted to see updates on the house we bought and the renovations that we would do.
