Yay! I got a gmail account. :-D

Focus!

Ok, sometimes I waver between two extremes...

On the one hand, I would enjoy being the kind of woman whose focus was on the home. Keeping it clean and well organized, creating things for it, taking care of pets and children, tending a garden. This, to me, is a life that I would cherish. I think.

Then, on the other hand, I get in a mode like I was yesterday. I discovered that I can have my MS in Insurance Management in 16 months of finishing my CPCU. Less, actually, if I double up. But I'm not that crazy.

If I really focus on it, I can have my:
CPCU Chartered Property Casualty Underwriter (professional designation)
MSIM See above
AIC American Institute designation in claims
AIM American Institute designation in management

All by the time I'm 40.

So - I fluctuate between wanting a much simpler life, and creating more complexity for myself. Gah!

Cancer Horoscope for week of June 24, 2004

I have a pleasant assignment for you, Cancerian: Decide what form of abundance is most important to you. Is it money? Friendship? The land you own? Is it romantic love or creative inspiration or your children? Of course you probably value several different kinds of abundance, but your challenge right now is to determine the one that you prize above all others. Whatever you decide it is, it will flourish in the next four weeks.

I have to CHOOSE???

Silly silly me

Well, I did it. I went to Staples over lunch and *gasp*

Dun - dun - duuunnnnnn

A handheld recorder...with a tape and everything. Specifically, the only one that takes full size tapes.
I know, magnetic media is a bit gauche in this digital time. Alas, it is a grand and useful thing, as far as I am concerned.

New toy!
