Well sometimes you just have to dust things off

...and put them back to good use. I've failed pretty hard in keeping up this blog, but with the recent acquisition of some new friends, and the need for me to get my random thoughts out in a place that's NOT Facebook...I felt the need to start this sucker back up again. Still just as random as before, but hopefully a bit more consistently. My son requires less chasing around at this point (holy crap, he's 3!!) and I've got too much rolling around in my head, so...here we are again, at the same place we've been several times before.

To start, well, I've been unemployed for way too long...and it kills me. I don't like being stagnant, but at the same time, I can't just pick up any old job, since obviously I need to have the munchkin in daycare. Well, hopefully I've come up with a solution to that problem. I'm not going to share just yet, as it's going to require a lot of work, and I'm not 100% sure on when it would pay off, so in the spirit of not jinxing myself, for now I'm just going to say; please wish me luck with this. It's something that would benefit my son and help me provide for him to the best of my ability, while at the same time allowing me to stay true to my salty, tattooed self. Fingers crossed, cuz this girl needs some change in her life.

Aside from that, Brennan is thriving...he's a beautiful, sweet, bright little boy, and as annoyed as I get with him at times (and any of you with children understand just where I'm coming from, I'm sure), he's the light of my life, and I absolutely enjoy every second of watching him grow and learn.

For those of who interested in the beauty aspect (although I know there are 800 bazillion other beauty blogs out there), I'm still very much in love with makeup, and part of me is extremely sad that it's not the path for me. It's ok though, I'm happy enough to have developed my skills enough to make myself and my friends (and the occasional wedding/prom client) look and feel great. My makeup routines are always changing, as are my current obsessions, which at the moment is my newly rediscovered love of MAC StudioFix. <3

Well anyway, I think that's enough to get the ball rolling for today...we'll see if things pan out this time, and if not, hey...that's ok too, cuz life happens. ;)
