Choices

As I have blipped over the years there were choices I have made and a few choices that were made for me. Going shopping for food I commonly put things in the cart but before I checkout, I go back to a few isles and put a few things back I can't afford. I could have lived in Tacoma for $100 less per month but with street parking for my car, no safe area to walk and... choices.... If I had no responsibilities, I could make 1.5 times my current salary but I not only promised my dad to take care of my mom, it is what my parents taught me and of course it is the right thing to do. Again choices.

I am struggling a bit with such a drastic to me changes in life but each time I question something, I remind myself that I made certain choices and so...

In the photo is one of several "toys" I put together for Tiger to play with while I am gone for work. I am hoping the weather forecast holds so we can take a walk on Thursday..
