So nobody's really that into VW's... Posted 3 months ago

That's okay...So I'm alone in this whole VW thing. I'm pretty used to being a bit different from others.

I've noticed everyone on here has so much to talk about. So much drive and passion about what they do or what they are experiencing. It really has inspired me.

The truth is for the past year my husband and I have been so caught up in our lives that I haven't really had time to put the effort into being that passionate about anything outside of our relationship.

I hate being that person. That live to work instead of work to live person. I've always been the laid back, roll with the punches, see you on the other side person. But now I'm a homeowner, a wife and planning on being a mother.

Life scares me at times. With growing up am I going to lose the person I once was? Is that what is supposed to happen? Can I be the mother I always wanted to be and not turn into my mother?

Okay, so that was a bit of a spastic breakdown of sorts. But maybe I needed to see it in writing to admit to myself the path I am taking...

So I guess I'm at a fork in the road...I'll take the path that leads to me and hope that my life will follow...

By the way, I love my VW too. I have a 97 Jetta that I refuse to part with because it still performs like a dream. I couldn't put myself in the VW category for two reasons. One, I wouldn't have been able to make the hummer joke. Two, my long time ex-boyfriend was a VW freak and I lived too many years going to bug-outs & other VW events. I got really turned off by fake hippies at these things...you know people who consider themselves hippies because they drive a microbus and smoke weed. Of course, they had no problem leaving their trash behind. Arghhhh! Anyway, don't be scared to be a mother. I am on my way to being one after years of having fun. I don't think this is going to take away my fun, just push it in another direction.

I used to keep pic-nic supplies in the trunk, charcoal smore's makings and pic up what we needed on the way, haven't done it nearly enough this summer, but once you get set up its oh so easy, the kids loved it. Oh and if you can find out when the amish store in RR has slaughtered a cow they make the patties or steaks on the spot, they had the neatest stuff in there, Oh the best sourdough bread too!

Thanks...I know it will get better. I just have to trust my instincts and take control of my life instead of letting my life control me...

congrats on taking the next big step! My mother and I became much closer after I had mine and I find myself saying things like "somebody is going to get hurt..." OMG! With the great husband you have, I believe you'll be able to find a balance. No one wants to realize that they are stuck in bills and life instead of taking wild impulses, but trust me the carefree will come back and make you that much of a better mother!
