So lately, I've been dealing with a lot of 'grown up' issues. Today, I got my head in the game and started a Roth IRA account- recommended everywhere for young people like me for a retirement account. I read up on it- tried to understand it- and in the end, I'm aok with my decision. I'm still really ignorant on mutual funds, stocks, funds, the money market- and whatever else but I just want to know that by age 65- whatever I'm doing- I can just hang out and not worry about money. That's the dream.
It's funny- I'm 31, single, and not dating anyone. If I told myself this when I was 16 or even 21, I would have laughed and been like, whoa- what happened? I remember even thinking when I was in my 1st year of teaching and seeing my principal who was 37 and single/never married and thinking- wtf happened? she's attractive, smart, and seems to have it all- weird. Maybe that'll happen to me- who knows? I'm a pretty positive person but now that I'm officially in my 30s- it's really crazy to see my friends a) been married for a couple of years, b) now having kids, c) even thinking about divorce(not really-but i've heard other friends talk about their friends).
Also, more and more, I've been seeing a LOT of people around me being sick- I know I wrote this earlier but is it because I'm growing up and people around me are older or just that sickness is all around but I never saw it before? I'm as healthy as a horse(thank god- knock on wood) and have been lucky to go through the winter not getting sick. And this is me going to tahoe all the time, doing the things I do...
Going to the place called Fresno this weekend- should be good times. Haven't been in like 2 months- so it'll be nice not to be a grown up and have my mom/dad take care of me. And oh yea, of course, Gubbar give me some love- dog licks/jumps are always good times.
Ok, hope everyone had a good tuesday...this blog is getting sparce- i'll have more to write about soon hopefully...
