It has occurred to me that I have been sounding pessimistic lately, especially on here, especially about love, dating and that whole thing.
Generally I'm not very pessimistic, I feel perhaps that I am negative due to my lack of success.
It's easy to not be positive about something that you are not good at.
I'm not really good at dating.
My good friend Abbey has been talking to me lately about how I need to get out there. Lucky girl is already married to a good guy, has a beautiful little boy and another on the way. I told her that I need her to pray for me. Lol. I suppose the worst problem is timing and situation for me. Often I am attracted to men who are not good for me, who aren't interested in me, or the ones who are interested in me, I have no interest in them.
It all comes down to: I need to keep in mind and be encouraged by that it only takes one.
One good one to care for who will care for me back, the other the other 3 billion of the XY pool of the population does not matter.
So today to start off my 24th year on this planet, I will come back as Anne the art student, I will put on the plaid capris Abbey gave me for my birthday, put on my Chuck Taylor's and get back to my optimistic self which is generally more natural for me in the first place.

Another Mark of My Mortality
Happy Birthday to me.
A lot of my co-workers wished me well, and over all my birthday was pretty good, but I am bothered by the fact of turning 24. I wanted to have the day off from working, but unfortunately due to lack of people, that didn't happen. I made the best of the day I did get off though, I had almost a day and a half that I spent back home in WI with my family and high school buddies, and even got to go to Stevens Point to get a Garlic Cheeseburger from Marvin's. YUM!
After putting on almost 600 miles in a day and a half, I'm pretty tired and I think I will lay this Birthday to rest.
This Mark on my Mortality is making me think even more that perhaps it is time to think about settling own and build a life with someone.
Eh, what do I know, I think I'm just having an early mid- life crisis.
Don't listen to the rantings of a crazy lady.

Where is June going?
The summer has been pretty busy so far, ANY days I'm not working, I usually am going home to WI. Hopefully I will attend at least ONE June Dairy Breakfast this year. I've been spending lots of my free time cooking lately as well. The best way to stick with a nutrition plan is to prepare all your own food. My good friend Abbey, my unofficial dietitian, and myself figured out that I have lowered my BMI almost a full 7% in four months! (6.9% was the figure). I am glad I am doing this, I know it is a lot healthier for my body, and there is very little sacrifice food wise. The biggest restriction was sugar, but by getting rid of it, I've expanded my horizons to so many good foods. I have been relishing fresh cherry/grape tomatoes. Good thing I have 3 planted in my garden. Hopefully they will start pushing lots of blossoms and fruit. There are a few blossoms already. The garden looks like a Ma & Pa Kettle thing, it's a bit shabby, but as long as the zucchini, tomatoes and onions do well, I'll be satisfied. I want my Mom's Zucchini stew, now.
Other agendas: my car is in the shop for the transmission. The repair was estimated to be about $600-700, so I decided to take the hit and use was I was saving from my tax return to repair it. I hope that this will make it good for a long time now, I would love to get at least two more years out of it, however if it will last longer, I will use it until it dies. I want to be financially free by the time I would want to go car shopping for something really nice and reliable. The plan is, hopefully, GOD willing, that I will be on my way to having children by the time I need my next car, and I wouldn't mind spending good money on something nice, safe and reliable for their sake. Problem with my plan: I think I work too much to find Mr. Mostly Right (I DO not believe in Mr. Right, because no one is perfect, especially not me.) : )
