Week 10 and goodbye for now.

So for the Card Challenge- I am thinking of this-

Tell me about your goals...

What is my goal? Well it is to get my special education certification completed. I started before the kids and now I have no excuse to not get back in the saddle. I am 19 credits in and I have a meeting with a professor at a college this Wednesday to get back on the track to finishing. I am getting so very close to beginning my professional career again and this "back to school" is a very necessary part of my career path and the hiring process. I need all the help I can get to be hired- I am not 22 anymore fresh out of college, you know?

Anyway- tell me about your goals- this has been swirling in my head a lot with September right around the corner and with me digging through transcripts and calling colleges. Man, I am scared. Really beyond scared. I love being very comfortable right here at home in my safety zone.

On another front, I am taking a break from the blog. I am just not feeling it right now. I had not even realized it had been a week without posting until Friday and then I thought, "Why bother, not much to say." So I will be enjoying other people's blogs (really those aren't even doing it for me except for Pioneer Woman) and will come back when I feel "it" again.

This exit from the blogging probably has a lot to do with my recent rejection from a design team. I am so very heartbroken and need some time to lick my wounds and get myself back in check. As is pretty normal for me, when I am hurt, I become a very tight knit homebody and circle my wagons and wallow in vulnerability. It will pass-- and I am not typing this here to hurt anyone- I am not mad at anyone about my rejection- I am happy for the people who made it, really, I am, I am just feeling like I don't measure up and I have never been good at that. Who is, really? I have to type this in here because it is true and real and that is why I do this blog...to put it out there, to give myself therapy.

Hey everybody-- if you do decide to do the card, post it here- I love seeing Dodi's and Amy's and Susan's cards. It is so cool to have our very small little club. I guess I will be back in two weeks when it is my turn again. I am not quitting on my card challenges. I look forward to them even though it is only 3 and a half people who do them like Sooz and I joke.

Goodbye then my dear internet, have a great couple of weeks.
