We're Still Around

I know it has been WAY too long since I last posted anything new on here. Life has been full of lots of changes lately and we've been busy rolling with it. For those that don't know I'm still unemployed after being laid off in 2010, a month before A was born. The original plan was to stay home with her for a year then go back to work in a district closer to home. Well, she's almost 2 and I still haven't found a full time teaching job. Chances of that happening in a new district any time soon are slim to none so I started thinking of other ways to "go back to work." If I'm being completely honest, I don't really want to go back to work full time. I love being home with A and if we have any more kids, I'd want to be home with them also. So that's when I started the photography "business." I still feel like I have so much to learn that I can't really compete in such a saturated market just yet. I mean, come on, have you seen some of the professional photographers out there?! Very intimidating!! So while I gain more photography experience, I started as an Independent Beauty Consultant with Mary Kay. I never thought it was something that I would enjoy doing but so far I'm having a blast! I have the flexibility I need to be able to work when I want and still be home with A. I also still have time for family and photography and other commitments.

Which brings me to why we've been MIA. Getting the business launched and started has taken up most of my free time lately but I think I have a good grasp on what I'm doing now so I'll be better at keeping up on here. I also get to start making over one of our guest rooms as my new office so that means projects, projects, projects! I'll definitely keep you posted on those too! Thanks for sticking around. OH and if you need any photography services or any Mary Kay products, feel free to contact me! ♥
