If you want something you've never had...

Hi Friends! Sorry I have been sort of MIA for a couple of days... I've just had a bunch going on and I feel like I'm having some sort of crazy quarter-life crisis.  I am working on getting a new part time job and changing a few things in my life and I just feel so overwhelmed and doomsday for some reason.  I think it is just because things always turn out differently than you imagine when you're planning out your life--I thought I'd have more of a secure career and have everything figured out by now but that is definitely not the case.  But I'm sure I can figure all of this out, I'm a smart, independent adult, right?

Oh I'm such a mess.  Does anyone ever feel like this or am I crazy?

Anyway, I don't want this post to be all doom and gloom, I really am fine I've just been a little down.  I want to look at everything a bit more positively, so this is one of my favorite quotes and I'm trying to make it my mantra right now.  I made some printable versions for you guys if you like it too:

Freebie Friday - Phone Backgrounds

You guys, I had such a bad day yesterday! :( I just felt so busy and stressed out and everything was just a little bit off.  So I had a ton on my mind and I jump in my car to run an errand. I call up my sister as I'm backing out of the garage, not paying attention to what I'm doing, and suddenly I hear a huge scraping noise.  I freaked out and pulled forward, shaking.  I jump out of the car and see that I had hit my husband's car which was in the driveway. Greaaaat. The back part of his car has a dent in it and a huge scrape. So I spent the next hour crying about how stupid I am and kicking myself for letting myself get so distracted. Everything will be okay but that was just a bad ending to a bad day.

But, not to worry, the weekend is here! And it will be so awesome and fun and relaxing because I am going camping with my family.  I'm so excited.  I need a little break so it will be perfect.

I've got a Friday Freebie for those of us trying to savor the last bits of summer: Berry Phone Backgrounds!
