If I Had Only Known
Things I wish I had know when (graduated, got first job, married, had first child, etc)
I would’ve started saving in a retirement account when I started working all those years ago and had not waited until I was 40.
I would’ve waited to have gotten married the 1st time. Or should I say, I would’ve thought hard and long about being married at a young age.
I would’ve used my degree in computer science instead of the other jobs I did to stay close to home. Can you imagine? Bill Gate’s and I could’ve been best buddies by now.
I would’ve done all I could’ve to get my son a better education for his music. I hate the school he went to didn’t have facilities for him to learn even more. He did take private lessons at the area college, but I wish there could’ve been more to choose from.
I would’ve visited my parents more and spent more time with my friends that I left behind in Missouri. I miss them.
And what am I doing now you say? I have definitely learned from my mistakes, but I can’t complain about my past life. I am living life slower, taking more in, learning more about our wonderful country and what I can do to keep it the greatest country in the world, I am loving my husband like no other wife can, I am eating too much (that needs to be worked on) and basically laughing and enjoying life like never before.

Before I got married, I would’ve insisted on pre-marital counseling and tried to find the cause for his “wander lust” and if it was likely it would go away.
