blah.

I am just so incredibly frustrated with some things and it’s putting me in a cruddy mood. It’s like before facebook, I wasn’t that concerned with being a stay at home mom or not having a college degree. But reading about people I went to school with who have bachelor’s or masters degrees just makes me feel so inadequate. I’ve tried to go to school and get a degree but I’m having to put that on hold because of finances. And no, I am not eligible for a grant. I don’t have the money to pay for it out of pocket right now so I’m just going to have to wait to finish up my degree.
I just get really discouraged when people ask what I do. I mean I’m a mom and I love being a mom, but I just want to be able to tell people more, you know? I have wanted to get into medical transcription from home but I will at least have to finish my degree before most companies will even consider me. I guess I’m just having one of those low self esteem days (which isn’t uncommon for me)…..

it’s all about attitude

I have just been really tired of myself lately. Seriously… I just get so tired of my attitude and pessimism. I get so frustrated with myself because I always tend to see the glass as half empty as opposed to half full. And this in turn makes me a very high strung, and at times, a neurotic person. And I also tend to let others attitudes and emotions affect me. I can be in a decent mood and if someone comes around me in a bad mood, then it won’t be long until I have their attitude. It seems like I stay angry so much for some reason or another. I think maybe I notice this stuff more than other people just because I can’t get away from myself lol. I’m sure there’s some good things about me, I just have to figure out what that is. I am 30 years old and I still haven’t figured out who I am or what my talents/gifts are. I mean I haven’t finished school (and won’t get to for awhile as my grant got messed up and I didn’t find out until it was too late to save up any money) and I can’t find a job. I mean I have 60 hours of college credits (maybe more, just not in the same major) and I cannot find a job. I have put it on my resume but right now the the people who are hiring can be picky because of the economy. So they want people with experience and a degree. But I am just going to keep putting in applications and hopefully someone will hire me.
I’m going to try to have a better attitude about things though. Hopefully someone will give me a chance to prove that I can do simple office tasks…
