decisions, opinions, confusion!

This process of having my entire family rely on me while Marcus is gone has really begun to teach me a lot about myself.

I have learned mostly that I do not make decisions well. I searched for over a week to find my daughter some bedding for her toddler room when we get back to Albuquerque. I am still searching for bedding for our room. That's a little thing. It takes me forever to decide what I want to pay first, what I want to eat, what floor plan I wanted to live in, where on base I'd like to live, so many things I just truly can't make a decision about.

My other issue is my opinion. I've learned that if I don't have a strong opinion on something, I am VERY easily presuaded in one way or another. It makes it rather difficult to even get into a discussion on something I'm not 110% dead set in my view on because I just may begin agreeing with the other person. This is something I don't like about myself. I think if I could learn myself more, it would help me decide how I truly feel about certain things.

Another aspect of that entire opinion thing is research. Sometimes, my opinion isnt solid because I don't do enough research on the subject to have a solid knowledge of what I am for or against. Really not a good thing, especially if I get into a discussion with someone who has.

The whole confusion comes in play with the fact that I just don't know what kind of person I am. I don't know if I like a certain style, if im more of an 80's or a 90's gal. I just don't know. I have been wanting to do a new style with my blog, but I don't know where to even start. Do i like brighter colors, prints, buttons, military type things....i just dont know.

What makes you who you are? What makes you decide? What makes you be so sure of your decisions & opinions? only time will teach me I suppose.
