Today has been a day of cleaning and reorganizing. In the past few weeks, I've become a little messy and lost, figuratively and literally. Time to get back to normal.....
First, I started cleaning up the kitchen. Got rid of food that we weren't eating (or shouldn't be) and washed the dishes and counters. Now, I'll be able to do some baking and cooking later. Cupcakes to be made for tomorrow and a few salads that I can make up for the upcoming work week.
Then, I moved into the livingroom, getting all my lia sophia stuff sorted out from the other things just lingering around. Finally made room for my iMac to sit alone on my desk and put my MacBook Pro/Acer screen set-up off to the side so it's still accessible, but not in the way.
Now, I have the bedrooms and bathrooms left. Taking a bit of a break for my back. I haven't had an all-day-marathon cleaning in a while. I'm really going to like having 3 days off a week, that's for sure.
Short and sweet entry. Looking to do more of this, again...
Stay Tuned!

Waaaay too long....
Sooooo, a LOT has happened in the... 6-7 months since I've posted last.
January, right? Hm... Well, I'll try to remember as far back as possible. HA
Okay... I guess the biggest change is my recent job change. I no longer work at Wal*Mart and haven't since June 14th. A week and a half later, I started at Capital One. :) No dine details needed, but it's an overall better decision for me and my life. I will say this, after training, I will be going to four 10-hour days. I can't wait to have 3 days off a week!
A few other smaller changes... I'm selling lia sophia jewelry now. That's been since the end of March. It's been going pretty well so far! ^_^ When I started, there was a program in placed called "Excellent Beginnings" and consisted of different levels of accomplishment to be rewarded with jewelry premiums that can be used for supplementing my jewelry display. :) I made it all the way through all 3 levels! ^_^ $1500 per segment lead me to earning $200 in premium. That's a total of $600 in free jewelry! YES! Which reminds me that I need to make that post in Facebook, on my lia sophia page. Anyway, I'm averaging between 2-3 shows a month, but that's only because it's summer. I plan on grabbing up a couple more as fall rolls around. Soooo, if anyone reading this would like to hear what this is all about and/or plan a party, you should let me know! ^_^
Then, we can move on to my third job... Aero. Haven't hardly worked there in about a month... Actually, I haven't worked there in a month. Not since I started at Capital One. Mostly my fault, I did't fix my availability. :( Now it's fixed though... and I've only had one day scheduled. *sigh* Hopefully, more hours will become available....
Hm... I've taken a few more photo shoots for MelJean Designs. An engagement session as well as a wedding! ^_^ Beautiful pictures! It's hard to narrow down the choices! It's actually taken me a while to get to editing them because....
I bought a new iMac! That's right! An actual desktop version instead of my laptop-conversion kind. LOL I've been settling into it rather nicely. Also trying to keep it nice and clean - internally. Still have a few things to transfer over and what not, but it's awesome nonetheless. ^_^
Travis and I are still going strong. :D We celebrated our 3 year anniversary on June 30... sort of. That weekend was the same weekend of the Clark Wedding that I shot. We tried staying in a hotel and it turned out horrible. Not romantic at all. :( We're going to try for a "redo" later on down the road. Hopefully.
*sigh*... What else? Been catching up on just a few TV shows on Netflix.... Like, Buffy: The Vampire Slayer, How I Met Your Mother, Drop Dead Diva... Yea, I have some time. Or did. Time is definitely filled up now... Or, more overlapped, rather. I tend to have Netflix playing in the background while I'm doing other things... I think I have a multi-tasked problem.... As in, I have to have more than one thing going on at one time otherwise I don't feel like I'm doing enough. Weird?

Motivation, ahoy!
Thankfully, I've been found with motivation and creativeness again. Yes, I will admit I felt that I had lost it. So glad to still have it.
Life is going well in other aspects too. Work is still going. I've been working every other day for the last week.
Travis and I celebrated our 30 month anniversary last month. For some reason, I kept saying it was our 18 month. Completely just left out a year. Not sure why. Lol
Tonight, we are sitting at home. I'm watching the Screen Actors Guild Awards. Well, I am watching them and working on my brochure. Travis is working on his walk cycle for a contest ending on the 30th, which is our next anniversary. :)
I suppose I will keep this short and sweet. Thank you all for reading!

Hoping...
You know that feeling you get when you've gotten too much sleep and you just end up going back to sleep?
Yea... that's kind of how it's been all day for me. We went to bed relatively early... around midnight. It was a great night of sleep... that lasted until about 9-9:30. A sufficient amount of sleep, really. However, it took more will power than I care to admit to actually, physically get myself out of bed. Why? No idea. And I've felt like I could fall back asleep so easily at any moment. No motivation, no will to do anything, nothing.
Just really annoyed. I have so much that I could be doing, but my mind won't see reason. I'm hoping that the little trip to Iowa next weekend will be a nice relief. Hoping...
