WYFP is our community's Saturday evening gathering to talk about our problems, empathize with one another, and share advice, pootie pictures, favorite adult beverages, and anything else that we think might help. Everyone and all sorts of troubles are welcome. May we find peace and healing here. Won't you please share the joy of WYFP by recommending?
Today is my birthday. I am now 47. This is not a cause of celebration.

I am going to keep this short. I was going to go on a rant about where my life is as I note another trip around the sun but then realized that I already did that last year.
Suffice it to say, the status remains quo, and actually a bit worse. Current work situation is untenable and I cannot find a way to move on. And outside of work I pretty much... nothing.
I realize that I am where I am because of consistent bad decisions on my part. Even something as recent as not striking when the iron was hot and try to find a finance job right after finishing my degree.
Age may be nothing but a number but in my case it's one that is high enough that says I should be established. Not trying to start out in areas of work or other aspects of life.
I just wish I could start making good decisions. All I want is to have a life well-lived, is that too much to ask for?
Oh well, at least I did treat myself to celebratory breakfast at a favorite place -- breakfast skillet, which is scrambled eggs with mushrooms, turkey sausage and asiago cheese.
And I had my favorite albums cycled playing on my iPod.
I managed to get an ice cream cone before a thunderstorm just rolled through.
Nothing like food and music therapy...
