Will I ever...

Today was one of those days that had me wondering...
Will I ever...? Some of my "Will I evers" today are as follows:
Will I ever have all of my laundry done at the same time?
Will I ever enjoy grocery shopping?
Will I ever have a completely clean house?
Will I ever get to all those books I've been meaning to read?
These "Will I evers" made me realize how "adult" I've become! Ten years ago my biggest "Will I evers" would have been:
Will I ever lose that 10 pounds?
Will i ever like my hair?
Will I ever own a pair of Minolo Blahniks?
Will I ever get married?
Oh how times change!!! And I don't mean that in a bad way! It's just so funny to look back and see how your perspective changes. How life changes you, molds you, grows you...
But today my biggest "Will I ever?" was this....Will I ever stop trying to be everything to everybody? At almost thirty I often times lose that balance in life. That fine balance of being a wife, being a daughter, being a co-worker and an employee, being a student, being a friend, being a part of my community. I don't think I'll find that balance overnight, but I think I'm going to try to get better at it during my thirties...It will be fun to see what my "Will I evers" are in another 10 years!
