Life's a Lot to Think About Sometimes

Do you ever stop and think about your life in general and realize you don't really know yourself anymore? The things you're doing, the people you're around, even your hobbies? I feel like if I were to go back and talk to myself five years ago, I wouldn't believe who I was going to become. It's not necessarily a bad thing, it's just weird to think about. I do feel like I'd be disappointed in myself for some things, though. I should be accomplishing more, should have done more by now.
But that's all going to change soon. Work, a new house to keep pristine, a website, and God only knows what else. And it'll all be by myself, because he's gone five days a week for work. It feels so overwhelming right now, but at the same time, I feel like all the extra things I'll be taking on will just be making up for taking so long to get somewhere in the first place.
It all makes me wonder if, in five years, I'll be thinking the same things all over again. Will I be happy with my accomplishments? Will I be completely surprised again? I guess I'll check back in five years and see..
