Brain Thoughts

I just need to unload my brain. I feel like I have a lot of thoughts but no answers or directions.

So here is a glimpse into my thoughts...
~I feel I have no direction in my job. And I wonder if it is time to move on, but then that leads me to wonder what's next?
~I really enjoy being a wife and all that comes with that. I am obsessed (strong word) with homemaker blogs. I get frugal ideas and recipes that I love. They inspire me to be creative with my thoughts and time. I've learned how to make bread, granola, peanut butter, noodles and tons of baked goods. All of these things require lots of effort and time.
~Which brings me to my next thought of working full time. Am I being a good wife if I come home exhausted from a day at work and can barely muster a conversation with my husband? I know that I am not serving him as a godly woman, so should I cut down on my "career" to focus on a bigger priority, my husband and home?
~I love gardening and planting things because you can't mess up. Well, technically everything could die, but if you plant something and it doesn't look right, you can just move it somewhere else. It's very relaxing and I find myself wanting to do that more and more too!
~I want to visit Ohio before June. We are going home for over a week in June but I feel like so much is going on with my family that I need to go before that. Should I spend $500 to fly Mike and I home? My family is one thing that I don't want to put a price tag on and maybe I need to see them more than twice a year.
~I am becoming very frugal and I like it! I feel like the more extra money we have, the more we can give. This is really exciting to me! Oprah's adviser said to try to live on one person's salary and if your single, live on half your salary. Can you do it? I like the challenge!

So that's it. Thanks for reading my thoughts and sharing life with me! Love Yah!
