29 more days!

Well, I turned in my three week notice on Monday. My last day of employment as a graphic designer is June 12. I'll still do it on the side freelancing as I have done in the past, but I am definitely looking forward to getting away from the computer for a while.

I have been thinking about what I want to do career-wise, and I have decided that I want to go back to school for my masters in exercise science. Not sure where I will go for that or when I will start. Who knows? Maybe I will find a great program down under and decide to stick around a while! I'm not thinking too far ahead anymore. I think that's where a lot of my dissatisfaction lies ... always trying to plan too far ahead or wishing my life was a certain way. Time to live for the present and just be happy with what I have. I can't change the past and I certainly can't predict the future, but today and right now I can tackle and that's what motivated me to take the plunge and go to Australia now.

The house is coming along quite nicely. I have had quite a lot of requests for photos. Well I am not quite to that stage yet, but once I get there in the next few weeks, I will definitely upload some images of the house. My brother and two of his friends will be moving in beginning in July. My big project is the master bath. I almost have the walls ready for painting. Have to connect the plumbing underneath the house and tile the floors and shower and finish my vanity top, which we are creating from an old solid oak art table from Mississippi College. I am so excited to see how that turns out!

  1. The vanity top sounds interesting! I bet it'll look cool. I'm so happy you are taking action and doing something that you have been wanting to do for so long!!
