I. Am. Woman.



Do or Die

May 12, 2007

It's only been a month and some days since I last wrote here, but already it feels like forever.  

There are days when I feel like everything I am about to say or do, or the things I am feeling, are too mundane, too trivial to justify putting them down on paper or in this case, stringing them into words for people to read.  What can I say, my life is as exciting as a door knob.  When the high point of your day is making perfect panini sandwiches on your newly acquired panini grill set, you know you need to re-evaluate where your life is heading.  I have had too much time on my hands, have chalked up too many hours on the internet doing research, have soaked in too many mind-numbing yoga exercises on TV all in the name of relaxation, and still I am where I was when I single-mindedly declared I wanted a year off to decide what I want to do with the rest of my life:  undecided.  At 34, that is not a nice place to be in.  And at 34, it is not natural for someone who once thought she could take the world by storm by taking up law and one day becoming a lady judge, to be weighed down by fears and insecurities.

So I am giving myself an ultimatum.  By July, I will either have a job or should be preparing for school.

I owe it to myself — and the husband — to be interesting again.

get to know the WOMAN

would-be lawyer turned homemaker. (day)dreamer. cloud watcher. moon lover. hankers for a life that's bursting at the seams with books and wine and art. believes she can only get better with age -- and swears by it on her three-inch heels.
