Cannot Sleep

So, I cannot sleep and have been sitting here trying to figure out what to do. A lot of thoughts on my mind. Most days I write blog posts and want to just pour out what I am thinking. Then, I have to ask myself if that is a good idea. Too many drafts in my blogroll have gone unpublished and this morning I am just going to type and see what happens.

Yesterday…. Thursday…was okay. Every day this week Aida has asked me if she has one more week before school. Today I had to tell her the number of days. I cannot believe the time is winding down so quickly. It is almost unreal. I really am going to miss her being with me every day but I know it is time for her to grow up. I cannot be selfish. My parents sent me to school and I am just fine. Hmm…. I am still not sure on that one. I am determined to figure out where I went wrong because I know there a glitch somewhere. This wrongness is probably why I cannot go to sleep. I am sleepy… I just do not want to close my eyes.

Every now and I then I find myself wanting to say I miss working.. I miss my job. The truth is that I do not miss it. I liked working because I felt like I was helping provide for my family. I was miserable. Some of that related to the workplace and some not. I am miserable most times and not sure why. I just am… but I do know I need to find something more to do. I have always had these pictures in my mind of me getting out and exploring the city and just taking photos whenever I can…living as free spirited as I can for a few hours a day at least. I cannot do that though. It is not in my DNA. I am precise..I love facts…I need logic…I want things to make sense. That make sense part is probably why I am having this inner struggle right now. There are so many things that I cannot make sense of right now. Things I want and want to do…want to see… and I am not sure why. These things (which I will not name) go against the grain of who I am and what I believe. That makes it hard for me to make sense of it and figure out where these type of feelings came from all of a sudden.

There are so many books I want to read. I got a library card just to read about web design and photography and just cannot find the focus. So many wonderful resources..yet I am not using them to the extent I would like. Maybe one day …. soon. Until then, I thought I would share a couple of photos of Aida. These were edited completely in Adobe Lightroom 5.
