New Business

OK... so I have decided that I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY want... need... to be a stay-at-home mom. Well, that is a little difficult right now. So, what I have decided to do is sell BeautiControl. That is what was tried at the Spa Parties. They have some amazing products from lotioin to make-up to face scrub. I just really do not know how to get started. I am still waiting on my products to come in. If anybody has any suggestions on what I can do, please let me know! I am open to suggestions. I don't have a whole lot of time right now to do spa parties, but I am hoping to get a large enough client base to substitute my income from Walgreens so that I will have time for Spa parties. If anybody wants to look at a brochure or has any questions... please ask. And if you know of anybody that would be interested, please give them my name. I will be getting business cards :) so I can hand those out.

Other than that, things are going well. Reina is growing super fast. She is so much fun, very talkative, energetic, and she knows who her mommy is! :D

Lucky.

I am really loving my daughter.  She is my life.  Reina is absolitely wonderful.  I hope all you moms ( and dads)  out there feel as lucky as I do.  I understand so much more know that I am a mom, and I look forward to learning even more.

Sad Day

We went to meet the lawyer today, who was SUPPOSED to have already typed up the papers.  Well, I got there at 8:45 and Russ arrived at 9.  THe appointment was for 9.  The lady was supposed to have been there since 8:30.  She was not.  The office was closed.  Noone was answering the phone.  Just before ten the lady pulls up and says she has been trying to call me, but she must have written my number down wrong.  Ends up she has the stomach virus.  :(  She did not type up anything.  She gave us some paperwork to fill out.  She said she would type everything tomorrow.  This was after we both took off work to take care of this.  Frustrating.  The entire situation.  Simply frustrating.  Not that there is anything simple about it.  Or anything I can do about it.  Ya know, as if I wasn't nervous and stressed out enough, I have to go through it all over again.  That means leaving Reina with Tanya and getting off work.  

Anyways, thank you to everyone that has been thinking and praying for us.  I really appreciate all of your kindness and support.  I love you guys!

Tired.

I don't know what to do next.  

Sick of this...

I just want to vent for a moment. I am already sick of hearing people complain about the election. Yes, people voted because of race. Yes, there are still many racists (of all races) in this country. No, they are not going away. I have heard so many people say that it is about time we had a black president, well... he isn't even black. Then people want to say that blacks have had it worse than anybody. Not sure about that, but I do know that they jave not been the only mistreated people. I have been ignored and mistreated simply because I am Mormon. Joseph Smith, the first latter-day prophet, was tarred and feathered because he shared his testimony and his witness of seeing Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ in addition to angels and apostles. He was killed because of his beliefs. The election is over, so what we need to do now is keep our families together, happy, and safe... which is what we should always do.

Gone Back to Work

I have gone back to work. I worked Monday 4-10. It was not too bad. We were really busy so I wasn't able to think too much about being away from Reina. However, tonight I work 1:30-10. That is a little bit longer of a shift. I don't like it. I don't like working. I have applied for a tutoring job, so I hope it works out. That way, I don't have to be at Walgreens too much. I just wish teachers made more. I knew they didn't make a lot, but I didn't realize it would be that little. Oh well, things will work out the way they are supposed to.

Reina has been asleep now for about 2 hours. She needs to wake up and eat before the in-laws come over to watch her and I head to work. Russ will be with her tonight, so maybe they can bond some more. He needs that. Wish us luck!
