Laying low at the Lake with Clouded Thoughts

Day 2 of the first week of the rest of my life.

It 's the second day of the work week since I resigned and it's nice to be down in Georgia "away from reality" for a bit.

I'm sitting here on the pontoon boat after an 8-mile run this morning through Georgia College and State University and the Military College. Oh to be a coed again.

It got me thinking about all the decisions I've made in my life up to the this point and makes me also think where they will be going.

As I told my Dad this morning, I don't regret going to Capital University but wished I would have took more time to look at other schools outside of basketball and possibly larger and in the South or East Coast. I also wished I'd taken advantage of studying abroad when I had the chance to but was "too scared" I'd miss out on something social here.

It's silly now looking back at it but funny that I'd end up in a social setting for work planning events and spending most of my time out and about meeting people as well as having a blog called Columbus Socialite.

Have you ever stopped to think if you would have chosen door number 2 or 3 where would you be now? ......

I've been doing it more than usual now wondering would I have a better job, where I'd be in my personal life and where would I be living.

Don't get me wrong I love my life and the people I've met along the way and the people that are in it. I'm also excited to start over from scratch with my career to see where it can take me.

Maybe I just took Door number 2.

Whatever the reason, the lake has been relaxing and quiet and probably the best place to get your thoughts collected. Exhibit a: why my normal "event post" is more like a journal entry today (without all the juicy details...sorry) :)

Have I've been making bad decisions all along the way in all parts of my life? Or is it the fact that things happen for a reason.....

You be the judge in your own life and I'll continue to lay low here before accepting new changes in my life when I get back to Columbus.

Adios, avoire, ciao.....oh what I would give to me in any of those romantic cities....

Eventing off,
Miss C.S.

What you're doing is a really, really brave thing. You took a look at your life and realized, "I can make this better." And then you took the first step to doing so. Whatever else happens, be proud of yourself for that!
