My Goals for the Next Year

I know it's not the beginning of the year. I don't normally make New Year's resolutions. I am going through some life changing circumstances, and I just recently started getting back on track with my life. I am reassesing what exactly I want from my life. I am just recently over a long depression, and many of my life goals have changed.

First of all, I feel like I am a totally a different person than I was back a year or so ago. My whole way of looking at life has changed. I'm no completely sure what I want to do with the rest of my life. i just know it's not what it was before. It's better, even after all the trauma I've been through.

I want to spend more time working on art. I also want to go back to college. I'm not sure what I want to take yet, but I have decided on taking one of two routes. I apply for financial aid in January, and won't have to pick classes till it's time to register, probably in August of next year. I want to either take art classes,and try to make that my career,or I want to major in psychology, and become a councelor for mentally ill adults.

For the present, I am trying to make money online with writing articles and other content. After Panda and Ehow, my online income has totally tanked. I'm currently trying to bring my income back to where it was before, when I could actually almost make a living at it.

If I have to, I will get a job, but for now, I want to stay home with my kids if it's possible. I've volunteered for my son's preschool for several days a week, and I won't be able to do that if I have to get an outside job.

Basically, I want to make enough online so I can stay home with the kids, and also be able to go to school next year. I think I can do it, even though things look really choppy at the moment. But I have faith in myself that I will find a way.
