Work is the SOUL of Progress.
Kat's thoughts about life and other bullshyt.
About a week ago I decided that I needed a bigger house. Okay, I didn't actually decide this a week ago, but I did decide that I needed to get serious about finding a new house by the time I was ready to move. I really like my house, but I need more space. I'm currently living in my first house and although I had several things that I wanted in my house, I think I was really overwhelmed by the process. This time, I want to take the time to get exactly what I want in my new house.
One thing that I really want is a front porch. Yeah , a front porch. Have you ever had a front porch? It is different that the back porch/patio/deck. Really, it is. The front porch is for sitting and takin in the scenery, talkin to neighbors (do we still do that?) and for drinking ice tea in the spring breeze. The back porch/patio/deck is for barbecues and entertaining. Most homes in Georgia don't have a front porch because the front door is at ground level. But when I was growing up all the homes had porches and sat above ground level. So that's my number one request, today.
I've got several other requirements that I'm looking for but none are as important to me as that porch! LOL I must say, though, that I am enjoyin the search. I've started riding subdivisions and looking at the homes. I discovered a small lake in my county and now I think I'd like to be by the lake. Well, maybe not so much.
The one thing I am not looking forward to is the actual move. With all the packing and unpacking, it makes me contemplate continuing to reside right here. Sometimes I think about the folks that never unpack when they move and I wish that I could have done that to....would make it easier now. Boxes, packing, labeling, unpacking, organizing. Whew! Just the thought!
What kind of mover are you? I'm the kind that has to sort everything by room and sometimes by box. Everything is labeled as it's packed. I know, it's an obsession, but I gotta do it. At least I've got enough time to get it all done.
With all this free time, and my return to the world of 360, I've taken to perusing the blogs of the various 360 members that I stumble upon. It never ceases to amaze me...the things that people have goin on in their lives that they choose to share online or the crazy stuff people come up with. For example, one site I came across consisted of women who were describing their affairs!! Of all things to discuss online...your affair?? What are they thinking? Many of them were bloggin because they were feelin guilty. Understandably. Others were bloggin because they wanted advice! Imagine that....taking advice from random folks you don't know and will never see!
Well, as you can imagine, there were lots and lots of blogs on sex. Sexuality, different positions, what works best, how to..., how not to..., STD's, relationships, and the lack there of! I was not surprised to find out that sex is the most popular blog topic!
But....I was wondering....what strange stuff have you stumbled across in Blogville or Bloggerland??
Well, folks I'm back! I know it's been a while since I was here. I wanted to take some time to find something that I thought was out there. Something that I wanted. Turns out... I was wrong. Wrong about a lot of things. I know what I want, but it doesn't seem to be out there anymore. Maybe I'm old fashioned in my thinking about it. Maybe I've been going about it all wrong. I don't know. But what I do know is this:.
Life is full of shitty ass people that will fuck up yours just for the hell of it!
Now, I'm not angry or upset...I'm just coming to the realization that sometimes people will never be who they say they are....or who you think they are. (Actions ALWAYS speak louder than words.) Maybe it's an aspiration...a wish...or even a far-fetched dream. But sometimes, they just can't do it. They may never reach their potential. And that's cool. And then other times, they are just full of shit from the start.
I just needed to find that out for myself, I guess. It's not like I didn't know they were out there. And for a long time, I guess I had managed to avoid many of them. Until now. But that's cool....one of life's hard lessons.
Time to start over and move on.
