Okay, so I haven't been on here for a short while now.  My life has been temporarily turned upside down.  Its all in a good way I guess you could say, but it is definitely messing up my schedule and getting things done.  I am a creature of habit, and when my routine gets changed I don't usually adapt that well.  Wonderful hubby's work schedule is changed for a short time so he is here when he normally would be gone and that creates havoc in our routine in this house.  And I am one of those wives that actually likes being with her husband, so him not being as available doesn't make me happy either.  But without him, I would not be able to sit here and think about what job or career I want to embark on.  So I don't complain much...he works his ass off to make sure we are all taken care of.  So I guess I should stop making this all about me.


Speaking of careers....I may have come up with something that is definitely doable for me.  I am giving some serious thought to making cakes!  I made a cake for my youngest daughter's 5th birthday that wasn't just a round cake or 13x9 pan cake.  It was a doll cake.  This doll had her big dress on with dots, and frills, and everything on it.  If I could ever figure out how to post pictures on here and NOT have them show up sideways, then I would show my pictures to you.  Just know that I was proud of that cake.  And my girl loved it!!  I do enjoy cooking, just ask anyone in my family or circle of friends.  I would have considered catering, but where I live is a bit too rural and there are a bunch of caterers.  So suffice it to say that industry is wrapped up.  My mother in-law made cakes for years and put two kids thru college doing it....so why can't I??? 

I will do more and more and probably some more research into this and see if this is something that I really want to get into.  But I do know that I really enjoy cooking or baking....just being in the kitchen quite honestly is where I most comfortable.  But do I want to put myself into a career path with that and make it to where I HAVE to go cook every day because my job depends on it?  This is one of those questions that I need to really think on and answer before I can really move forward.  The experts say to do what you love and food is definitely something I love.  So I will have to do a little more thinking and soul searching, but I may be on to something here.
