Has life thrown you a curveball? Check out these 40 Inspirational and Motivational Quotes that will make your day and get you on your way.

When I was a child I was confident in everything I did. I can remember knowing that I was always right. One of my good friends used to tell me that she knew better than to tell me what to do because I was going to do what I wanted to do regardless of whether it was a good idea or not. Just because I wanted to. Which is true. I am stubborn and bull headed and because I weigh the pros and the cons of every situation I think that whatever decision I am making, it's always going to be the right one. The thing is that I'm not always right. Obviously. And every decision that I make isn't always the right one. I am an emotional person, and even though it doesn't really seem like it. I live in the moment. A lot. I take my current circumstances and don't take into consideration that circumstances change. I quit my job a couple of months ago to go back to school full time and work part time. I thought this sounded like an ideal situation. I was really burned out. I was working at a difficult property, for a difficult owner and everyday seemed like a cesspool of negativity (I wrote lots of blogs about it, Just look back a couple of months). I felt like the only way I could ever do something besides property management would be to get a degree. Thus going back to school. What I discovered after I had quit and been home just a week was a that a lot of my confidence and self-worth was tied up in bringing home a paycheck, in going to work everyday and being the boss. Even working part time wasn't enough because I was bored. I was SO bored. Even after school started I was bored. So this week, I went back to property management, at a different property, and I'm not bored anymore, and my self confidence is back and I feel like I'm contributing again. The lesson that I learned the most, and the point of this blog, is that circumstances can change everything. And that is applicable in all aspects of life. You can be doing the exact same thing you were doing a year ago and be ten million times happier because your circumstances have changed. You can be at a different property, or you can have a different staff. And everything could be better (or worse) because of it. You can be getting married for the second, or third, or fourth time and it can be the best thing to ever happen to you. Because your circumstances have changed. You've changed, and grown, since the last time and you aren't marrying the same person. You can be starting a new relationship and be scared that it's going to be just like all the other times. But it's not. Because no two relationships are alike. You don't want your fears to ruin something amazing. Different circumstances, different people, different outcome. You are not the same person that you were when whatever you were doing before was happening. Which means, as you change your circumstances change. What that also means is that you should never base a current decision on a prior circumstance. Nothing is the same as it was the last time. If you don't like where you are change it. That doesn't mean you have to change everything, just the things that make you unhappy. And that doesn't mean that just because you are unhappy means that you have to make a drastic change. A small change in circumstance can make all the difference in the world. Change is really the only constant. You could wake up tomorrow and be the happiest you have ever been. Isn't that a pleasant thought.

I'm pretty sure that whoever built the Christ the Redeemer statute in Rio de Janeiro didn't expect me to daily state "I don't care (Big Jesus)". For some reason whenever I say that I don't care, I put my hands out just like the Big Jesus statue. When I really don't care I emphasize each word by gesturing with my Big Jesus hands. Although this sounds funny, it very rarely is. Let's talk about all of the things I don't care about. I don't care about excuses. There is a difference between an excuse and an explanation. When you give an explanation you take responsibility. When you give an excuse you just try to justify why you didn't complete your task or did something wrong. I hate excuses. I have fired vendors for offering excuses rather than solutions. I've dated/married men that had an excuse for everything. They got fired too. I think that when I was writing my pet peeve blog in September, excuses probably should have made list. I also don't care if someone the told something different then what I'm telling you right now. If I'm giving you direction, or asking you to do something I don't care if you've been told something someone else at some other time. I'm telling you to do it now. I don't want to be questioned, second guessed, or argued with. If you feel the need to do any of those things come me in private or do what I say and tell me "I told you so" later. Unless you are my child, then just do it! If you think you have a better way to do it. Try it my way first. Otherwise I don't care. I don't care if you feel like your too busy. We're all too busy. No one working 40 plus hours a week, taking care a family of any kind, even if it's just a cat, and still trying to have some sort of a social life doesn't feel like they're too busy. Please don't use this as an excuse. Because I don't care. I don't care about a lot of other things. I don't care if you can't pay your rent. It's due every month on the same day. Plan better. I don't care if you don't think you should have to pay for your carport or garage. If you use it pay for it. If not I'll rent it to someone who will. I don't care if you were told by someone else that you had 24 hours change your mind about living in your apartment. You don't. You should have thought about that before we both signed a legal binding document. I don't care if you think I should drink less coffee. I don't care if you think I should quit smoking. I don't care if think i drink too much wine. I don't care if you agree with my life choices. I don't care if you don't like me. I don't care if you think I'm a bitch. Most of all I don't care if my "I don't care attitude" offends you. A good person can only be pushed so far before they don't give a Fuck anymore and guess what? I haven't been anything but pushed for the past 40 days. Push me again. My standard response "I don't care (Big Jesus)".

I have blogged before about stupid girls, and stupid boys in the past. Which is funny because my friend Veronica has blogged about stupid girls and stupid boys on more than one occasion as well. There was the time about blocking stupid girls on Facebook. And then there was the other time about crazy girls checking their significant others emails (which is something boys have been known to do as well...). Oh and we can't leave out the "Because Girls Are Bitches" blog. This leads me to believe that, as a whole, the human race can be rather stupid. This stupid girl/stupid boy blog has been inspired by the "ex". Unfortunately, we have all had experience with the ex. Whether it is the ex-boyfriend or girlfriend. The ex-husband or wife. Your current significant others ex. Or your best friends ex. In one way or another our lives have all been touched in some way by someones ex. There is nothing more dreaded than the statement "I got a text from my ex today". It inspires tears, frustration, anger. Excessive drinking of wine... Ex-spouses are dumb. It doesn't really matter if they are ex-husbands or ex-wives. However, in my experience girls are more ridiculous than boys are. Especially about the fathers of their children. Although, men can be just as ridiculous about the mothers of their children it just seems to me that they don't cause the same level of drama. And boy, do girls cause drama. I have blocked two people, ever, on Facebook and both are ex-wives. I still have X2's ex-wife blocked because, even now, she tries to cause drama. This is something that I just don't understand. Why are you purposefully going to make someones life more difficult? If I'm leaving you alone why aren't you respecting things and leaving me alone? Not just that but why do you even care? Maybe I'm not the average ex. Essentially, I just don't care (Big Underwater Jesus). Obviously, if there were an issue with my child and the person that my ex is with I'm going to care. But outside of that scenario I am going to be HAPPY that my ex has found someone. Just because it didn't work out between us doesn't mean that I don't want it to work out for him with someone. Everyone deserves to be happy and find love. Everyone. If I did have an issue I would approach my ex directly. Like an adult. Even if I knew it was going to be a difficult conversation I would know that I am no longer with this person, which means, essentially, that I don't get to react the way that I may have when we were together. I am going to have a calm, to the point conversation. Like a rational adult. You know what I wouldn't do? I wouldn't send Facebook messages to his current girlfriend. I wouldn't call her. I wouldn't approach her and ask her to coffee so I could hash out the problems I'm having with my ex. The issues that he and I are having are none of her business. It's his responsibility to deal with her, not mine. Not just that but the likelihood that the issues that I am having at the time have anything to do with her are slim to none. Girls cause drama. They make shit up. They never forget anything so they bring up old shit from the past. They react emotionally, rather than intellectually, which leads to drama. The worst ex's are the ones that use their kids as leverage. This nasty ex habit is not exclusive to girls or boys. The second that someone uses their child to punish their ex in any way, they fall into this category. It is not your child's fault that you don't like their mom or dad. It is not your child's responsibility to make sure that the two of you get along. It is your responsibility, as an adult, to make sure that your child has the best relationship possible with your ex. It is irresponsible for you to do anything that would harm that relationship. Using your child as leverage is irresponsible. Not just that but one day, your kid will realize that's what you have done, or have been doing, and the blame is going to all fall right back on you. Drama. Drama. Drama. Why? Why? Why? It just doesn't make sense to me.

There's something about classical art that just turns me off. Endless portraits of pale and plump aristocrats looking all fancy in the classical paintings, bucolic rural scenes, religious iconography... I can certainly appreciate the skill and relevance back in the pre-photography age, but these days we need a message!
