RANDOM THOUGHTS: ABOUT ME

When I turned 30, (YIKES!), I wrote a list of random things about myself and have updated it the past few years adding one new thing each year. I had a HARD time with embracing 30! This helped me focus on other things besides getting OLD!

I found this note on my Facebook and after reading through it, I thought...."Hmmm! I havn't really changed much!" 

It's kind of a bitter-sweet moment.

I personally feel like it is a very good thing to aspire to grow and change. Maybe I have changed a little (other than in my pants size).  I have found that it is important to say "No" when you have stretched yourself to the limit.  I have found a new love for blogging.  I have also found so much more value in family! Maybe that is because I am getting older! Who knows, but I am aching to the core to be a stay at home mom again...ACHING!

So ANYWHO...Just some random thoughts about me for those interested in getting to know this goofy, random, cajun girl-Nelly!
