Seems like an easy one, but it really isn't. Who are you right now? What are you doing right now?
Where are you in your life, right now?
Right now I'm enjoying a nice cup of hot cocoa after picking my daughter up from the bus stop. It's Monday, so I'm in jeans and a sweater, after a long day at work. After four days off, I played a ridiculous amount of catch up today. I'm anxious to finish up this semesters classes. I'm happy I am here though. I'm happy I have followed through with my plan of returning to college when my girl started elementary school. I'm happy that after taking so many general education courses its art from here on out. I feel so much more myself when I am creating.
I am tired. Almost constantly, but I am happy to be doing what I want to do with my life. My nail polish is chipped, my dishes are dirty, but I watch Ghost Adventures with my daughter because she wants to. I take pictures of my food because I think it's pretty. I take pictures of my clothes because I think it's fun. I take pictures of my art because I want to be noticed. I love digging through the thrift store racks for my next vintage gem, I love scrap booking the memories I will soon forget.
I am not really any where in particular, but I am some where I will remember. A happy fleeting moment in my life where both my daughter and I are both students, we're both girly and love dresses and skirts, and we love doing things together. A time in life when my lover and I are still new, exciting and inspiring to one another (lets hope we never, ever lose this), even after three years.
Just stopping to think about right now makes me realize how much I am happy about. Sometimes I wish I was further ahead on my plans in life, but this is my journey and I am enjoying the moments.
