These questions keep running through my mind. Burning questions they are.
**
When am I going to get my Master’s? Notice I used when and not if. I will get my Master’s…one day. Will it be in history, my passion? What will I do with it? Can we (ever) afford me going back to school financially? Time-wise? Emotionally?
**
Today I want more kids. Yesterday, when I was trying to nap I wasn’t so sure. Will we? Won’t we?
**
Can you have a seven year itch in regards to where you live? Or, is it a case of the grass is always greener?
**
Can baby weight sill be considered that if your baby walks and talks? Regardless, mine needs to come off…like last year. But Now will do.
**
Will I ever start something? More than a project…like my own business (I know some of you are surprised to read this…Shane.)? Most days I want to, a few days I don’t. A bit humorous since I don’t even know what I would do.
**
Where do I want to be in 5 years? 10 years? The rest of my life?

The future of Magenta cranes looks promising 😉

You sound like me. I can’t decide if I want to get my master’s or not. If I do, will it be in Environmental Science, Computer Science or Anthropology? Is it worth the money and time investment? Where should I move next, Latin America or Israel? Am I really brave enough to move to give up everything I have and move to another country? What do I want to do with my life?
It’s just so much to think about….

Sometimes it’s frustrating not knowing what the future holds. But at the same time, I like to just be along for the ride and not plan anything. Things happen as they should and when you’re ready.
I struggled for a long time about going back to school and my laziness still wins out. I just can’t see myself giving up my free time, when it won’t get me anywhere. I’m content with that.

All good questions. I am still struggling to answer at 52. Some people are lucky to know what they want and they do it. Others of us are always questioning, but it is the questioners that find the real answers to the mysteries of the world.
Words of Advice: Sit down with your husband and have a plan about finances, children, career. Make it a three year plan and revisit every time something changes. Before you know it your child(ren) will be grown, and you will be saying what if.
My biggest problem is my husband…he is a sweet dear man, but very complacent!

I believe you can get a seven year itch when it comes to where you live and partly it’s a case of the grass being greener elsewhere but I think it’s also partly that you want to live some place that speaks to your soul.
