You can't have it all..... but you can certainly try!!!!

How time flies.... & speaking of flying I'm on a plane .... AGAIN... flying away, away, away from my love... (WHATS NEW!!!)

So soon we'll be resorting to bbm, facebook wall posts and free BB email for the occassional, but necessary, "I miss you so much" , "Can't wait to be back in your arms"..... which, let's face it, after some  time becomes frustrating; and doesnt seem to QUITE convey how much you REALLY do actually miss him!

It's at that point i start to really appreciate the fact that I'm lucky enough to have a boyfriend who is understanding of my career and it ridiculous demands of my time. A career that takes me away from him WAY too much and when I'm home.... leaves me so completely and utterly buggered at times that I end up passing out on his (rather muscular) chest in front of the TV, early oon a Sunday evening!!
(from ZERO hangover, from ZERO partying the night before - might I add!)

And yes!! I DO consider myself lucky and am VERY grateful that I even have a boyfriend... let alone an understanding and supportive one, as many of my colleagues (similar-aged young ladies, with similarly demanding careers) have NO boyfriend at all, OR battle to hold down a relationship due to the nature of their careers!

BUT...... don't get me wrong. That doesn't automatically make me his slave or anything... There aint no emotional blackmail going on here. I'll admit that sometimes I reach a point where I'm borderline suffering from a guilt trip, but not nearly enough to result in me running aound constantly trying to express my love for him, doing favours and what-not to re-assure him of my commitment.....

I don't feel guilty, I don't.... I WON'T feel guilty for having a career that's demanding!

Well now you're probably thinking I'm saying this BECAUSE deep down somewhere.... I'm possibly at that borderline..... feelling a little guilty as we speak!

But hey!!! as they say:
You can't have everything in life - the career, the love of your life... AND plenty free time to enjoy it all!!

HOWEVER.... you can certainly try!! "I" can certainly try....
(Don't tell me I can't have it or can't do it!!)

So here's to  me.... giving it a go! Wish me luck, I'll let you know :)
