Let's try this again!

Hello, hello!

So, it's June 21, 2012 and I'm bored out of my mind.  I've been out of a job for about two months now! Some people (maybe normal people) might use this time as a chance to relax..enjoy the summer...take a breather...I don't know, be happy?  I'm practically loathing it.  I seriously hate having nothing to do!  When I first ended my contract in mid April, I went back to Nola and helped big sis with her studio work and watching the kiddos.  That kept me busy for a while.  At the end of May, I headed back to Orlando to wear my glass slippers for two weeks so that I could keep my status as a seasonal cast member.  I really enjoyed those two weeks.  I had really missed hugging the kids and listening to the crazy things that may or may not come out of their mouths.  I even got to play on the castle stage for a few days!  Fun times, fun times.  Since the recital on June 9, I've pretty much just been back and forth between Nola and Houston, working on decorating our super cool and chic apartment!  Don't worry, I'll add some photos!

It seems I'm a little at a stand-still right now.  I didn't take another contract with Disney Live for this upcoming season because I am getting married (yea! I'm getting married! FIVE MONTHS from today! Cray, cray!) and thought I would be ready to settle down a bit and start a career.  But seriously, WTH is a career?  I don't know and I don't want one.  Or at least I don't know what KIND of career I want.  Clueless really.  Here's the thing, I have so many things I love: traveling, performing, dancing, kids, fashion, photography, giving back, writing...I mean, just call me a hippie.  That's what I feel like...I love the arts.  And what do I do with these interests?  No clue.  Some might immediately say, "Oh, be a teacher!"  Well, I just don't think I have the patience for that.  I am volunteering at a local school here in Houston that teaches children with hearing/speech disabilities using non-conventional settings/methods. I'm excited to see how I like it.  I simply refuse to have a normal 9 to 5 job.  I refuse to sit behind a desk all day.  This much I do know!

With all of this said, I was looking at Pinterest (obsessed) and have seen that SO many women have blogs about anything and everything.  I tried one a few years ago when I started my travels, and then I tried again last year and I just didn't have the time (or effort) to keep up with it.  Now that I've got nothing but time on my hands, I think I'll give it a little go.  I'm going to try to recap on my life this past three-and-a-half years and take you through my travels.  If not for you, at least I can do it for myself.  I may even post a little bit of some other fun stuff...maybe some fashion, photography?  WHO KNOWS!?  Let's just see where the wind takes me...
