I was put on assignment by a dear friend to write out my goals. I'm sick and can't exactly think clearly, but this is what I came up with so far. I am at such a crossroads right now. I am just not happy in my hometown anymore. It has put me at a standstill. I was complaining to her about it and she gave me a semi snap back towards reality. Especially when she reminded me of our reverse roles merely a year ago. I included all parts of my life even down to my cleaning issues!

I have already pursued my life long dream of being a cosmetologist. It was such a wise choice for me to do hair. I love doing it so much! Everyday I go to work used to not be such a chore or bore for me. Lately, however, I dread going to my job. It isn't what I'm doing, I still love that. Its where I'm at. It doesn't make me happy. I've tried to tell myself that I just need to be happy and that it is menial stuff. It is getting harder and harder everyday to see past the menial stuff. If it really is menial issues.

The other ones, except the last one(!) are just various life things I want to do. The long distance running is a new one. I decided about 2 weeks ago that I wanted to do this. I haven't started yet, but as soon as I'm nearly back to 100% I am going to get out there!

I have a lot of praying and thinking to do as I think changes need to be in my life. Maybe the options are right there in front of my face and I don't even see them. Either way, I know God is sovereign and he will provide me with the right opportunities in my life.
