Moody Monday?
Probably the moodiest monday I've had in a while.
This is me today:
Re: Moody Monday?
Hahaha, love that picture!
I hope today is not a moody monday because I'm meeting with that girl tonight who wants me to make her invitations for her. She sent me some ideas and I can definitely do some of them, so we'll see what she says and how much she's willing to pay me for it!
Today is pretty moody.
I feel like I've been floundering for a while, trying to figure out what it is that I want to do with myself, but today I had one of those "shower epiphanies" where I decided that I want to be an art conservator.
I was all excited about researching masters programs today until I realized that almost all of them require college level chemistry and studio art. Feeling a little let down now...
That and totally checked out of my current occupation.

Mine was only moody for a short period. Someone sent me an email that said, "Dear Jessica." Ummm, "How many times have we corresponded?," is what came to mind first. That or, "Are you sure you should be enrolled in a doctorate program considering you don't know how to read!" (Those of you on fb know my name is not Jessica!)
Other than that, I'm having a good Monday. I'm almost done with my giant project; plus, I had a fantastic weekend. We went to the Half Price Books giant clearance sale, saw fabulous art and ate fry bread at the Indian Market, and saw the Karate Kid--which was awesome!
I'm actually not worried about the chemistry, but I have serious anxiety about studio art classes. I had to take a couple for my art history degree, but I was in tears about once a week. I feel like I have the technical skill, but not the creative energy to make up my own compositions and group critiques are a horror.
I know they will eventually be worth it if that's truly my calling. I have a friend who's a curator at the local museum. I'm hoping she'll have a little insight.

Today is kind of moody- it's my first day back at work after a week and a half vacation (I really shouldn't be complaining, right?) and it's rough!! Luckily, I don't have much to do today, so I can kind of ease back into it...
And Reine, that sounds like an awesome field to get into- you should totally go for it!
That sounds like the perfect place to start! Good luck deciding!
I am having a VERY moody Monday. I have to work today because I asked for Friday off because I have a wedding to go to and I'm helping my mom do their flowers. Mondays are usually DH and my day to hang out and after a very busy weekend and going into a very busy week, I really needed time with him. Pair that with me thinking them needing me here today is b.s. has given me quite the attitude struggle this morning. I'll just plug away though... and do my best to not let this get the best of me. I'm so excited for the wedding on Friday so I'll just try to keep thinking about that.
MY BLOG!
I LOVE shower epiphanies! Sometimes I do my best thinking in the shower!
And I totally feel you on the studio art classes. Art was one of the majors I was considering in college and one of those classes was the reason I didn't.
Moody. I'm writing... and I have to go over stuff with the boss on Wednesday, and she's been really stressed about other stuff. So I don't think it's going to be very pleasant.
Dogs LOVED the lake house though. Our dobie finally started swimming on her own. She's not a very good swimmer though, she tries to like stand on top of the water, we think. She splashes a lot and doesn't move very quickly. It's pretty funny.
Moody, moody, moody. I'm 150% exhausted, I've been at a Library conference all weekend, so absolutely no breaks and lots of time on my feet. Granted, as those of you on FB know, I've gotten a TON of books for Liam - many signed! - and got to see some cool innovations in libraries and talk to some admissions people from schools with masters programs in Library Science...but I'm so freaking exhausted, my back is killing me (from lugging books around), and from going non-stop for the past 7 days...and no break until this weekend. I'm not even going to get into the near-nervous breakdown I had on the way home tonight (I blame exhaustion and hormones).
Not to mention, a friend of mine is in town and staying with me tonight...urgh, I'm SO not in the mood to be playing host. And he wasn't supposed to get here until very late and then leave early tomorrow morning and now he is almost here and it is only 7 so I'll have to entertain and I'm just not feeling it.
And, the icing on the cake, my neighbor has his TV on extra loud. I can hear it enough to know it is there but not enough to fully hear it and it is driving me crazy. I don't want to be a nag and ask him to turn it down, but I'm so beyond any amount of tolerance today I just might have to.
Sorry...this totally turned into a vent.

Totally moody. I'm pretty unhappy with my work right now. I know what I want to do with my life, but right now that has to stay on hold because financially we can't afford for me to go back to school and lose my income (since I'm the breadwinner). I'm trying to keep myself otherwise occupied with my hobbies, but even that isn't providing much satisfaction these days.
I definitely need to come up with a list and action plan to make me a happier person, but I don't even have the energy to do that these days. Yep, super moody Monday.
