Auntie Jeanne

My goodness. My great aunt Jeanne is an amazing person! Artist, Life Coach, Mother, and so much more all rolled into one! It is unfortunate that it is not until now (she's got to be around 80) will I get to know her better. Jeanne helps people find their dreams, and then she helps them get to them. Seems easy, huh? Something tells me it's not like it seems. Maybe that's why we have so many damn corporations. People still trudge to work at them every day.

What a poop!

Hehe.. I'm such a poop. Positivity is so great and cool and wonderful. Tomorrow I'm off to the cities after work to visit with my Great Aunt, Jeanne. She is a Life Coach and an artist, and above all that, a really cool lady. It is unfortunate that I don't know her very well. I'm much looking forward to seeing and visiting with her. I'll let you know if she helps me make any amazing discoveries, like the meaning of life being 42 or something. :) {Miss you Kamran--and thanks for that book!!!}

I'm famous!

Not really,, hehe, but check this out! The pretty feet w/ the colorful flip-flops is me!!

And another thing: I went here and talked to the owner! Just wanted to inquire about how one becomes a pastry chef/baker/cake decorator. I am planning to submit not only that application, but a few more, including into some post-secondary educators. I'm not sure when for all that, but if I wait much longer I just might keel over and die of boredom and non-creating. Ick!

Arrrrrt

What a shame. I wake up each day with so much creative energy and enthusiasm, and then I kill it. Ahhh! Work is work and that is good. In the words of my brother-in-law, "Work sucks but employment is great." (I can especially relate to that with the industry I've somehow wound up in). I have decided I cannot keep doing this though. I am doing something that is so not Laura that Laura is dying... :( Very sad indeed. I want to check out Pastry Chef/Cake decorating. How fun :) And art and baking all at the same time.

People say not to make your hobbies your job. Well, if they are, then I don't have to become depressed trying to find the time to do those hobbies and I can do my other hobbies.. (Like running and yoga and painting and reading and playing guitar [which has taken the back burner for WAY TOO LONG, by the way]. Anyway, for some reason I thought I should share this, but I'm not sure why. I hope everyone else is having a wonderful time w/ life at the moment... :)

buh-bye!
