Everything I have...

All that I have is all that I asked for. At some point in my life I asked for all that I have. It has been given to me now to know what I had and that I should have trusted.  I was angry in the past. My heart has changed back to what it was before it was touched and corrupt.  I want to keep it that way but fear I could easily let the fire go out and turn cold.  My best self is out there and I work towards trying to obtain it everyday. I learn from my past and from those who have been placed in my life. Some have been temporary and some been longer. All eventually leave though.  Love is that of youth and has been lost from my grasp. I have tried to stay bright as a beacon of light for those I meet. Though my light as burned out the light still remains.  One day a blackhole will appear where there once was that beautiful light. 

Never imagined

I never imagined that it would all be like this. Things are good and going in the right direction. I have decided that I don't want to leave this place so I will do what it takes to stay here. Happy is the only place I want to be and those who are in my life are the ones who should be. The ones who left I'm glad I want nothing to do with you. You're out for a reason. Things in my life are better than I ever imagined. Thank you, you know who you are.

Good days

When I look at all of the things in my life, things are good. Are there something's that could be better, sure but for the most part I try not to dwell on them. I just look for different solutions to the task. I may not be everything that I thought I would be but I have a good life and the right people in it. The people who keep me heading in the right direction and understand the person that I have become. I'm so glad to have so many great days.

Boy how things change...

So it's been over a year since I've posted anything and man a lot has changed. I work for speedway, I'm divorced, and I gave my dogs up to him. Well now that you've been caught up to speed I will try and keep you up to date a little more often than a year. Hope you enjoy my new life as much as I do.

All's well that ends well

During my first day here in Holland , Mi I me with my regional manager and I felt as though it went very well. He is very much like my dad, easy to talk to, but when it comes to business (which it always does) he is very business oriented. Anyway he asked me how my husband felt about moving and what his plans for the future were, I told him that my husband was willing to go anywhere so long as there was a good school for him to go to. He then proceeded to ask me what my husband was going to school for and I told him he was going to school for early childhood education. After he was satisfied that Joey would not be a factor in where he wants to move us then we moved on to him asking me about the business and probing me to see what I know, What are we supposed to read everyday before we ever take a customer, what do we call first off of the call list so on and so forth. I know that the girl that I am training up her will be a testament to what I know and how I can train and manage. The

New direction...

Well my life is going in a very new direction. Since my last post I have been promoted to Studio Manager of the Newark studio. I am currently in Holland, MI running another district as a part of my training. I ran the district that I am in 2 weeks ago. I am almost done with all of the requirements of the DMIT program. I met my regional manager today for the first time today and he is really nice, all about work which is good (no drama). I would like to think that he will promote me soon but it is going to be a toss up since our busy season is coming up very quickly. Oh, did i forget to mention I am also running a studio in Holland and training 2 brand new girls. Even though I miss joey and the puppies like crazy this is a new and exciting chapter in out lives so it is worth it. Joey is taking it in stride too. we are now just waiting to hear where we might be moving.

The times they are a changing.

So many things have changed since I have been on. I have finally received my diploma, so now I can become a substitute teacher in Ohio. Also, I have been doing the census and it is about to end, while I have enjoyed it very much and would live to continue doing similar work I do sometimes live in the real world and my job is working at PictureMe Portrait studios. Which I also enjoy very much and will soon be getting a studio of my own, that's right I will be a manager of my own studio. I have thought about this for a very long time and have decided to put the STNA on hold for now and be a manager if it doesn't work out then I have my other options. I am not sure on the pay but I will make it worth my while! The range is $9-$13 an hour. Like I said before if things don't work out I am not to worried I have a back up plan. Joey has started a new job as well, he really enjoys it there is a lot less stress than his last few jobs. His school is going good his semester is about
