People are always amazed by me and before you judge no I’m not being vain. I have two “circles” in my life. My feminine circle and my tom boy circle. I have the ability to slip on stylish outfit and sip cocktails one night and the following day I can be knee-deep in mud digging our 4WD out of a bog.

I sometimes love the city and all it has to offer. The glitz, the glamour. I love the shopping, the fine dining, the fashion, the pace. I can sit down and watch back to back Sex in the City episodes one day and the next day get lost in episodes of Pat Callihan’s Adventures. My magazine rack is stacked high with a mix of Vogue, Instyle, Overlander, On the Road Again and 4WD action.

In my closet I have riding boots next to high heels. I have RM Williams jeans next to designer dresses. I have Brooks and Dunn blaring on the stereo followed by Rhianna.

I often find myself stuck between two worlds.

When I grow up I want to be a journalist. A photojournalist to be more specific. I want to be career driven and be a powerful, independent women. I want to enjoy all the finer things in life and live life to my full potential.

On the other side of the scale I want to live out in the sticks and raise a family and enjoy the simple things in life.

Where do I find this middle ground? This balance?

Time will tell.

This is where the confusion comes to a front.

Will I ever pick a side?

Or will I always be somewhere in between?
