Ok so for those of you that know me, randomness is not a new concept when dealing with me.  I’ll be nice for those of you that don’t know me…a bit of background before the random thought…I like my hubby have WAY too much music stored on my computer at home.  I think last count was 20 gig…yes I know there are people out there with more…for that matter my hubby has more but for me it is a ton!  But alas it is at home.  And I spend hours droning on at work daily listening to what? I’m a cubicle resident so conversations from my many neighbors, clicking of keys, file drawers opening and closing and even the occasional curse.  Not exactly what I would rate as “pleasing”.  Soo…my mother has this ipod nano thing that she just keeps praising (mind you the ipod was actually a gift to Todd (my stepfather) from mom but he wasn’t using it),  so…I start looking….Not like I have the money to buy one but I look..right…it will end there…well not really…so Todd mentions this shuffle thing.  Same basic premise plays mp3s and such but is WAY WAY TINY!  Talk about portable!  So for kicks on our Wal-Mart trip I think hey its wally world they might have it, and sure enough yep they have it.  So do you think I leave noting the price…nope…I now have this little neon green shuffle attached at my hip (and yes Robbie I know I bitch about you and that stupid phone) But here I am…all I can say is it is much much more “pleasant” to listen to my plethora of music than the humdrum of the office!

Now for the random…

I have a very eclectic mix of music on this little thing, anything from Sinatra to Stevie Nicks, to Nickleback and Staind.  At the moment I’m listening to Reba McEntire….but anyway…I was listening to a Stevie Nicks song (nope had no idea what the title was, at least till I searched based off the lyrics )  And this line hit me!  And sooooo true, at least in my life…

“But you cannot know a dream till you’ve known the nightmare” 

For those wondering the song is “The Nightmare”….See told you I was going to be random today…but that is one quote I will DEFINITLY use in my scrapping…till later…

Ok..so I ran across this place called We Digi-Dare ya…and thought I’d give it a go…here is what I came up with!

here is the Journaling so it all makes a bit more sense…

A very powerful little question. I tend to avoid it simply because I am one of those rare breads that are happy with my life.  The very few things I really crossed that bridge on I have revisited and tried to incorporate it into my current life, it may not be the same but it is pretty close as far as I’m concerned!  One such example…COLLEGE!  I was one of the those student s…oh wait…party girl that went to class seldom.  On one hand not finishing led me on the path that allowed me to experience what I felt then was my dream job (working on a horse farm) as well as the rocky, and yes I mean ROCKY path that ended with a flash of amazing light, my little girl Savannah.  By experiencing life and not reading about it or listening to someone else’s life, I found my true love for a future job, Graphic Deign.  So here I am 27 and back in College.  Online but I’m still there!  My only regret out of this is the time my schooling is taking away from my husband and daughter.  I could have finished and possibly avoided that dreadful fact; however, I may not have found the love of my life or been blessed with Savannah if I’d gone that route.  So Study on I will and I swear I will work my school life into my family life, instead of working my family into the school schedule.  Life is too short not to take advantage of every moment, for all it is worth.

Let me know what ya think!!
