I've decided it's time I learned something other than HTML. I'm not happy with the template I'm using. I'm happy with the colour scheme, and for the most part with the Title Image...but it needs to be more. It needs to be me. And I'd make my own template up right now, except for one little thing...I haven't learned CSS yet. But that's going to change.
Woke up this morning wondering what I'm doing with my life. Not usually the best way to start a day, but I'm going to carry that tangent forward, and give it some thought. It began with...what makes me happy. Well, Genealogy makes me happy, but can you really make a living at it? Hmmmm...ok, what else? Well, my family makes me happy, but I can't really make any money off of them. LOL Photography, now that makes me ridiculously happy, but I don't have the equipment, but the equipment is something that I can work towards...ok, there's a thought to grab onto.
The supernatural also makes me happy. But unless you've got your own show, and a big network picks you up, can you really make a living at that? Barely. But again, something to think about.
I turned 37 years old last week. And while I feel I'm successful at what I do, it's getting to the point where it's not enough. I still dream of owning my own restaurant, but that is way out of my league right now. Photography would be a lot closer...at least it would in my head.
I also need to get back into my family research. I've been a little lax in it. I had the thought this morning that I need to start hitting the message boards of various sites, and see if I can make some connections.
That's it for now,
Jake
