Day 242: Crossroads…Should I or Shouldn’t I?

I hate to sound like a drama queen (and God only knows how much I hate drama!), but I have a bit of a personal dilemma. Wait a minute…hold that thought…how personal can it really be if I have been telling you guys everything for the past eight months anyway, eh?

Riiiiight.

Ok, so here’s the scoop.

Technically I will have been single for one year in 15 days from now, unless I counted wrong. October 29^th would have been Day One. Yes, that’s right…I started this journey a few months BEFORE my “official” start date of February 14^th. My original blog start date was supposed to be much earlier, however I was waiting for a “significant” date to start it on. You know, trying to make it perfect. It’s ok if you eyeball roll at that, I did. That’s who I was at the time though. I know better now though, I feel like I have grown since then. At least I hope I have. Since I started I have changed the way I see and treat myself, how I eat, how I drink, how I sleep, manage my thoughts better, manage my finances and career better, have healthier relationships with people, attract a different quality of guy, etc. None of these are radical changes or anything, but significant enough for me to notice and see the difference. In my eyes, I am already successful at what I set out to achieve. None of it is perfect by any means, and I am WAAAAYYYYY far off from my original goals, however I also realize that my goals were a bit unrealistic.

Ok, a LOT unrealistic.

I have carved out a path though, and I feel like I am well on my way to achieving everything that I set out to do. It’s going to require more than just a year though. I have a feeling this is a lifelong journey, and this one year was something to set me off in the right direction.

So here’s the dilemma I face: Do I end my one year “manbatical” in 15 days…or do I wait until February 14^th, 2012? I am kind of torn. What are your thoughts?

Either way, I will still blog about my journey regardless…but I sure would love your feedback.

…And just cause I know you’re probably already thinking it…no, this has nothing to do with Mr. Elevator. I have been thinking about this long long before that.
