Hubby asked me today if in a couple of years (or less, I'm sure) would I want to get a full-time job. I know what he's thinking, he's thinking about how both of us working full-time would help money-wise. And he's right, but that brings up an unpleasant point. If I did, then I would be a full-time bookkeeper-type person, and doing it more than I do now is a brain-melting idea. I want to Love my job, not do it 'cause I have to. I know a lot people have jobs they hate and they Have to, but if I don't, should I make myself? What about college? I never have gone and I guess part of me would still like to. But what would I do? I can't major in what I Want because both of the majors I would choose would need to be my Life, and I have a kid and a Life already, I can't dedicate myself like that to either one. I don't want to settle either. I've never been good at that. I just don't know. I don't want to be a bookkeeper/secretary type. It's not my cuppa, no offense to those it suits.
I wanted to be a vet, and just not a vet assistant.
I wanted to be a music teacher. I couldn't be just an assistant to that one, because the college kids that are trying to be music teachers are those.
I did Not want to be a bookkeeper to a small retail store dealing with mistakes from two years ago and a boss that, while nice, can be rather pestersome.
I guess I'm just feeling discouraged. Too many interests, too little time to give to pursue them.

Validation!
The accountant just came in and told me that I've been correcting the books, well, correctly.
Which is Very Nice to hear, and it's nice to hear him tell my boss that I've been "very smart" in how I've been going about doing it.
I'm still slogging through knee-deep mud, but at least now it has some pretty glitter on the top of it.
At least it's not waist-deep like it was. Whew. Talk about a workout.

The week was Spring Break
The title of my entry WAS "This week is Spring Break" but Spring Break was the first week of April, and I think we can safely say that it's passed. You know, since it's almost May.
*sigh*
It's been one of those kinds of months at work. You know, where I spend 5 or 6 hours straight working on a computer that when I come home the last thing I want to do is sit down at another one and type some more. What I've been fixing is the first 7 months of the books for the store I'm the bookkeeper for. Why? Because the woman that did them ALL WRONG. Well, she did the inventory all wrong, and as a retail business that sells stuff, that's kind of a big issue. I could go into the NIGHTMARE, but I won't. I have to deal with it enough at work, I don't want to feel that I-want-to-tear-out-my-hair-and-then-go-strangle-her feeling at home. Let's just say it's aggravating and let it go.
April 3-7
Hubby took the week off and so did I. Niiiiice.
Monday: Instead of being veggie-tables, we slept in a bit and then finished moving Sis M. She was at work, so it was just Hubby, Kidzilla, and myself. Which Hubby did NOT LIKE. We got the truck, went to her old apartment and loaded it with what was left that she couldn't fit in her truck or my van (i.e. the appliances and bookshelves and desks...etc.). And remember it's just the two of us. Kidzilla got to carry small stuff left lying around to the van. I'm sure she was thrilled. Then we went to her New apartment and unloaded what was supposed to stay there. This wouldn't be a big deal if she wasn't in a walk-up. So, we had to CARRY up her dishwasher (full of dishes I might add), a large and small bookshelf, two boxes too heavy to lift, her clothes hamper that had been used as an extra box, her computer desk, and the small desk she uses to sew on. We had a dolly, but it was only good for the two boxes too heavy to lift ('cause we could stack them on it), and the dishwasher (which Hubby pulled and I pushed up the stairs) because the rest of the stuff was either too tall or too awkward to bother with using it. Of course, the back entrance was blocked by cars so we had to take the dishwasher, boxes, clothes hamper, and bookshelves up a nearby alley, around to the front entrance, and Then up the stairs. The rest we could manage to carry up the back steps. After all this we went to her new storage unit and unloaded the rest (table, couple of chairs, various lawn items, two rolling trash cans, stove, fridge, another bookshelf...you get the idea). Sis M. was finally off of work at this point and joined us there. After we finished unloading it all we got a little gas for the truck (the needle had barely moved from where it was when we picked it up, but better safe than sorry), dropped off the U-Haul at the after hours drop-off and went home. This was Such a fun way to spend the first day of vacation. This is also EXTREMELY condensed. I'm leaving out the drama. Lots of drama. Yay. 'Cause we all know how much I Love drama. :-P
Tuesday: This was a Great Day. This was one of our Mammoth Cave days. We slept in, got up, had some food and got on the road. When we arrived we bought tickets for the Frozen Niagara Tour. We were early so we walked the trails a bit before going down to meet the bus that takes people to where the tour starts. Walking the trails (which are worth going for on their own, the park has so Awesome trails) seemed like a good idea at the time. We were early, we love hiking...only, we're Really Out of Shape, and, unless I'm mistaken, we chose one of the steepest trails to do. It wasn't the going down, it was the coming back up that was hard. So it wasn't as great an idea as it seemed at the time. Ah, well. We made it with a little time to spare and listened to the ranger for a few minutes before getting on the bus. Then we walked to the cave entrance, and listened to the ranger Some More. BTW, the tour we were on has around 550 stairs so of course three different families brought little kids with them. There were three kids under the age of three and one looked like he started walking last month. The ranger had this look of, "Oh, this is going to be FUN" on. Yeah, I agreed. We did what we always do and stayed back so we were at the back of the group. We like that because we can take more time to look at stuff without feeling like we're holding up the group (and the ranger in the back of the group never cares and loves when we [okay, I] ask questions) and we don't have to deal with People. You know, 'cause People are annoying. ;-) It was an awesome tour, Very Beautiful, and I was good and only took 85 pictures the whole day. The ranger mentioned before going in that while it's nice to have a camera that can hold a hundred pictures (or in my case 600-800), you don't have actually take 100. And as you have to stop to take each one, it holds up the line, so Please Don't take 100 pictures. Well, I was at the back of the line see, and well, I didn't take NEARLY all the pics I wanted! So, I was good. Yay me! I have some great shots of the inside of the cave (have I mentioned before how much I LOVELOVELOVE the "indoor" setting on my camera?) and some really great ones from hiking. We left MC after that, picked up some KFC on the way home and vegged for the rest of the day.
Wednesday: A veggie-table day. Mostly for Hubby since he so rarely gets time off. He suggested it and I agreed because I felt he deserved a day of not having to do anything at all for any reason. :-) So he played WoW almost all day, lol. I actually didn't spend a lot of time on the computer at all. I let Kidzilla play a Star Wars game most of the morning (she's supposed to be grounded from computer time, but come on! it's vacation!) and then I cleaned up around the house a bit and she supposedly did cleaning type stuff in her room (but I think she just moved some stuff around :-P). She and I went to churchy-church and came home late as I'd forgotten about a special rehearsal we had for the Easter Musical. So we finally came home around 9:30ish and I made dinner. Taco Salad! Yum! I think I ate an entire avocado on my own. I LOVE avocados! :-D
Thursday: Ah, a day of sleeping. Again. Then we got up and got ready to go out (have I mentioned how nice it is to have a kid that will sleep in until 9? and then get herself a wee bowl of cereal and not wake me up until noon? I have the most amazingest kid!), and then Hubby and I took Kidzilla over to a friend's house (the mom is my friend and Kidzilla loves to play with her daughters) and went and caught a movie. We saw V, which he'd seen already and I hadn't. I'd read the book already, and I have to say I like the movie more than the book. There was only one thing that wasn't in the movie that was in the book that I wished had been, but it was a small detail and didn't take away from the story at all. What a hankie movie. Definitely buying it when it comes out on DVD. :-D Then we ran a couple of errands, ran and got Hubby some Jimmy John's, and we went by the house. He stayed there and I went and got Kidzilla as it was time for ballet. After ballet was our weekly dinner at Cracker Barrel with Sis M., and then home and bed for Kidzilla and vegging for me. Another nice day. :-)
Friday: Another drive to Mammoth Cave after we finally got up and had some food. :-) It was raining cats and dogs on the drive, which we thought was great 'cause we figured that would mean less people. How wrong we were! As we drove up the last of the drive to the Visitor's Center it started to hail. Okay, so it was more than just raining, but we Love that kind of weather. Hubby pulled as close as he could and Kidzilla and I ran for it. Not two steps from shelter I get beaned in the head with hail. Just one, but it was a big 'um, and it HURT, even through my hat. I had a bruise! Just thinking about it makes my head twinge there again in memory, lol. We go in, and find out that they're not selling tickets because of a tornado warning/watch thing. Oh, great. I turn around and try to leave the ticket area so we can find Hubby but they won't let me leave the room. ?!?!?! I was SO ANGRY. My husband is out in that mess, and then he'll walk in to a Mass of people not knowing where the heck we are, and I'm supposed to just "stay put". I came very close to slapping the man for not letting me find him. I know he was just doing his job, but I was obviously worried about my husband. There was no need to be brusque and rude and almost condescending to me. Give it up, old dude. You're just a park ranger. I clenched my fists instead and Kidzilla and I went to the front of the room where they sell the tickets and I leaned against the counter waiting (occasionally rubbing the welt under my hat). They were herding Everyone into that room, and not letting anyone leave. Joy. A mob of jabbering, damp people crowded into one room. Hubby is supposed to find me HOW? Anyway, he came in and found us and we stood there listening to old ranger dude go on and on about the weather.
One thing that killed me. These ranger types have obviously never studied or thought about mob rule. You have a room crammed with wet, nervous people (well, 90% of them were, Hubby and I and the rest of Kentuckians that were there are used this sort of thing, and just rolled our eyes at it all), so the last thing you should do is amp up the tension. So what do they do? Set all the computer monitors to a weather thing that tells everyone that can see it all about the terrible weather. Oh, good. Let's make them even More jittery!
Fabulous.
So, this being KY, this all blew over in about 10-20 minutes and they reopened the tours and the ticket lines. And as we were right there at the counter, we found out that the tour we wanted was sold out. In fact ALL the tours were sold out except for one we did already a couple of years ago. I find this out and then find out that we could've made reservations for tickets. Which we didn't know 'cause the web site didn't mention this. So the tour we wanted to go on was sold out long before. Figures. Ah, well, we know for next time. By this time the rain and hail had gone down to a drizzle, so we went hiking on the trails. We went a different way, much longer this time since we didn't have to be back for a tour. And, since I'd left the camera in the car because of the rain, of course I saw a ton of things I wanted to photograph, lol. Well, I always do, but this time we saw a small herd (4) of white-tailed deer! They let us get So Close! It was amazing, so of course no camera, lol. It was a great walk in spite of the dripping and occasionally light shower. We had a lot of fun just spending time together walking. Of course we were totally pooped when get finally left the trails after three hours, but none of us minded. We came back to BG, grabbed something to eat on the home, and called it a day.
A long post and this is just Spring Break week! But I wanted to get it all down before I forgot it all, lol, I know me. I have plans to post pics, but who knows when that'll happen. Again, I know me. ;-)

Pointless
I am currently so upset about something my heart is pounding and there is a physical ache right behind my breastbone.
I'm done crying, just left with hurt and a state of bewilderment.
No, I don't want to talk about it.
Sorry.
Just.
No.
*sigh*

I Paraphrase
(because I have a crappy memory, you know)
"If I had it all to do again, even knowing how little time I would have with her, I would. That's what love is, Sam."
- Jacob to Sam, Stargate SG-1
I feel like looking up the exact words so I can print it up and put it on my wall.
"If I had it all to do again, even knowing how hard it would be, I would."
- Me
I told my mom on Saturday something I'd told Hubby a few weeks ago. That when Hubby and I got married at 18 we thought we knew what love was. We didn't (we were 18! what did we know?) but we thought we did. But now, 10 years later, we do, and we love each other more and more as time passes. It's such a great feeling to fall more and more in love with my husband. We've both grown up and changed, but I like to think that over the years we're bringing out the best in each other. It's hard to tell sometimes where he starts and I begin. And I love that.
