In deep thought

Well not really. Today I'm more of myself. I've been taking a backseat to my creativity to come up with new products. May 6th marks my father's birthday, so I've been spending a lot of time to myself thinking about him. So that's about it, just deep thoughts on my end. I'm looking into joining a few ning groups. I'll go do that now.

Gonna go see Obsessed at 9:45! I promise to do a review. I heart Idris Elba.

I'm a backslider..

And I know it. I've been very negligent. I know. Don't give me any lashes or anything, but please try to understand. I've been on auto-pilot here lately. Just kind of watching the days go by. I've been in a creative rut, and I've made myself more available to others and forgotten about myself. Which isn't the best way to handle things, but it is what it is. The good news is that I'm making a comeback and I have so many ideas, that I need to focus. I think I'm starting to become an introvert as I get closer and closer to my dad's birthday. *sigh* What doesn't kill me, will only make me stronger right? So surely one day...I'll be the woman of steel!

In other news my bestie/business partner will be bringing me Sprinkles cupcakes later this week. Ahhh...baked goods make me happy. Especially the ones I don't have to make myself!

Big kiss tight hug!

Time

Things have been well, here lately. The weekend actually had a few highs. I just feel stuck. I'm just a bit down. I know Rome wasn't built in a day, but I just wish I could fast forward to the good part. I want to be more creative, I want to try new things. I even want to quit my job so I can focus on doing those things. But it all takes time. It's a process. I just have to believe in my dream. My dad used to say to me. "K, you just have to let time do what it does." And I, at one time, would say that to everyone. But somehow, I just can't seem to say it to myself. Times like this, when I feel like I'm in quicksand, I miss my dad. He was the most supportive person in my life. He believed that I could do anything. He believed I could sell fur coats to penguins! Seriously..he was all in on anything I could think of. I remember we made a dollhouse out of a cardboard box once. We even made the furniture. I wanted a silver roof, so he put foil on it and painted on pink shingles. *tear* He would do anything for me. What man would possibly find the time to turn a cardboard box into an amazing doll mansion?!?!

So before I go to bed tonight, in honor of my father, when I slather Cetaphil all over my face..I'm going to look in the mirror, and say., "K, you just have to let time do what it does." I just have to trust, that my dad wouldn't want me to give up. He'd want me to re-vamp the plan, and continue to fight. *breathe in* *breathe out* I can do this.

MOVING TO TYPEPAD!

Okay..I'm moving to typepad in 2 weeks people..2 weeks! Mark your calendars..or not. I really like the layout, and I'll be able to do everything I want to do. So I'll be back then...maybe I'll even do a brand new blog giveaway! Taaaaaaaa daaaaaaaaaaaa! Ciao!

Weekend update

Okay, let's make this quick, as I'm currently in an Old Navy hoodie sweatsuit, and very behind on my weekend to-do-list. Wait? The weekend's over?!?! Already? When did that happen? *sigh* That ALWAYS happens. Smh. Anywho. *shrug*

This blog is just gonna have to do. Until I've moved on and become famous. I keep uploading the templates, and changing the codes, and it's just become a headache. So this stays...until I decide what I want to change the name to. Wait. I just figured something out! Okay, I might change it tonight. Seriously...this is reeeealy starting to make my head hurt. *sigh* More to come!

I give up

Sooo..I want a 3 column blog, and blogspot does NOT roll those out anymore. At all! Sooo I was browing the net yesterday and found a way to do that with a standard layout. So I'm in the process of doing that. I tried to convert this one and it was just a nightmare. The worst nightmare ever! So today I will be working on starting a different blog, with the layout I want.

Updates to follow...wish me luck..lol

I can't wait to quit my day job..seriously!

Sooo...The morning was going so well. I discovered that I'm in love with Starbucks, white chocolate mocha plus caramel. And yes! It's completely fat free, no added sugar or anything! Okay..so maybe that's not true, but don't judge me! lol. But moving on...I was on my 30 minute lunch break. Shocked? Me too! We only get 30 minutes for lunch now! Do you know how hard it is to scarf down piping hot food without burning your tongue? Very hard, let me tell you. But again, I'm being random. But I digress. lol. Sooo I have an interview and training scheduled for a new job, and I'd been pondering on what to do. I'd love to have more time to put into my business and other ventures that I'm working on. Plus, the new job would start me off at the exact amount that I'd make with the raise at my current job So I was thinking to myself, "Hey, it's almost time to get said raise!" (For privacy purposes we'll just say I'm a worker bee at Underpaid and Overworked Inc.) So I asked my boss about the EXACT date that the raise was coming up. She replied, "Oh you haven't heard! Corporate has frozen ALL raises for everyone involved with the company" *dead silence* *crickets* I even thought I saw a tumbleweed blow past me. Seriously. So I guess that's my answer, huh? Take the new job? *sigh* This recession is insane! Freezing raises?!?! Do you know how hard is to even get an INTERVIEW for a job? The whole WORLD is looking for a job! So I guess that's my answer, huh? Well..take the new job it is. Okay, maybe tomorrow I'll write about something crafty..right now I need to draft up a nastygram for corporate. Where's my selection of evil smileys? Grrrrrr.
