Again, I'm a failure and haven't gotten today's picture from my phone to my computer...but I promise it will happen tomorrow. At my house I get very dodgy service and can't send pictures, and have yet to be to town since yesterday afternoon. But today was very relaxing. I spent the day at home watching NCIS, reading, and spending time with my family. Today's topic: Have you ever made an important life decision (such as where to work or attend school) based on purely emotional factors, even though you knew it was not the best choice for you? Would you do it again? The answer: Yes. I know it won't seem like much to most of you, but for me I can honestly say that it changed my life completely. When I was younger I was a very talented and aspiring young cheerleader. Not "high school" cheerleading, but hard core, competitive, very intense cheerleading. At one point in my career the gym I was a member of was bought out and our whole team was left to find other gyms. The on my mother chose just happened to be one where NONE of my teammates decided to go, so I felt completely alone and out of place. I was having troubles making friends and really being accepted into the team so my mother gave me two choices: to either go out there and force them to be my friends, or to quit. I ended up quitting and it was probably the worst decision I ever made. I haven't cheered competitively since, and I thoroughly believe that decision changed the course of my life. To be honest, Sometimes I wish I had done it differently....
