Life is a Sacrifice

Well, Alex had a meeting with the person in charge of internships and it sounds like it's official that we'll be moving next year (only to turn around and move back here in a year). It should be an interesting experience to say the least. I'm just not sure what to think - I told Alex the other day that my purpose in life is to make other people happy and continually sacrifice my own happiness.

Lately I've been wondering what to do with my Mary Kay business, seems how school was the choice for me, I'm trying decide if I want to stay inactive with Mary Kay or try to get my business going again and re-activate. I think my biggest worry about it is, I don't like to push people and therefore don't have classes like I should to keep the sales up to maintain the minimums. Monday I went to shoe store to look for some new shoes (I have 2 pair of tennis shoes & they both kill my feet) and I went into the scrapbook store Archiver's that was right next door and I noticed they had a sign up that said they were hiring part-time. I thought about applying but then I keep thinking winter is coming and I'm scared to drive in the snow (yes I'm from Michigan) and my availability is so crappy I just can't really see a retail place wanting to hire me. So I don't know. I've also given it some thought to try to start my own business by making invitations & altering items, that is something I really enjoy doing but I just haven't really figured out how to go about getting that going.

Lately I've been helping Kiefer try to sell popcorn and he is doing great, he set a pretty high goal and he is a little over half way there, he really has the determination to do it and I really believe he can do it. I'm really glad that he is enjoying Cub Scouts so much and I hope he continues to enjoy it - it's a good way for him to get out and do things with kids his own age.

Emali is a different story she'd rather hang out in her room making lists of who knows what, reading books, & listening to music but that's okay I've been one to want to be alone a lot, lately though I feel like that's how I always am is alone and making sacrifices for everyone else while I continue to wonder if I'm just not supposed to be happy.
