Just a silly little blog of a mother, wife, student, daughter, aunt, bitch... from Maine. A way to get "things" off my chest. To stand on my soapbox. A way to not say the wrong thing to someone, a way to vent in private, sort-of.

national honor society
Well I didn't make it into the National honors society as I had been trying to do. That darn Open Heart Surgery exam was my demise. I scored only an 85 on it and it made me miss being nominated for the national honor society by .25%. I know that I should be happy with the high score I have achieved but this was my time to shine, for my sake and no one else's and I let myself down. Not sure why I am so hard on myself. I have never been that hard on myself before. Oh well.

A way to filter my emotions
Here, I have finally found a way to work through and deal with my emotions. This is a sure fire way to release my tension, share my happiness and stand on my "soap box" without projecting my emotions, either right or wrong, on my loved ones.
There are so many things I need to get off my shoulders but where do I begin? Do I start from hen I was little and the things that have stuck with me or do I start with what is on my mind today? I just don't know yet. This being the first blog and all.
I guess I will start with the damn job market. How does one deal with the fact that they have trained and studied really hard only to be told they lack experience in the field? How does one earn experience in the field without ever being given a chance to gain such experience? These are little problem when looking at all the bigger problems in this world but this is the problem that is in the forefront of my mind and daily happenings.
My husband is out of work, I am ready to graduate but apparently lack experience to become gainfully employed. I have 2 high school students who are closely college bound and a child in kindergarten. I have a mortgage to meet and all the everyday average american bills. What do we do? Try to sell our home in this economy where noone is able to "unload" that burden? Goddness!
