Working my tail off.

Happy Saturday!
Be it that I work all day Mon. - Fri. (including retouching at night). I have to make sure and take full advantage of my weekends. Laundry, cleaning, bank runs (not the illegal kind), and of course spending time with people I miss during the week.
This job through Image One Studios is forcing me to be a little more responsible and organized.
I suppose I had to grow up one day. Lol
(working in the heights this past week)
Has anyone tried the SPRINT 4G little wi-fi thing???

If so, how is it? I'm looking to get one for work and for traveling.
I REALLY don't want an IPHONE just yet. I would be addicted to it just like everyone else, I'm sure of it.

Well, I don't have a whole lot to say this week, but my goal is to keep writing blogs...no matter how insignificant they may be. lol

Currently Reading & almost done with:Me Talk Pretty One Day, by the hilarious David Sedaris

Thanks for reading, see you again soon!!!

Just Needed Something to Write About

Well, it's obvious to everyone involved that I've not written a new post in AGES!
Since my last post my to-do list has gotten out of control, I was working at Pappasito's just about every day and I just completely ignored the fact that I even owned a blog.
"Nobody reads it anyway," I'd say.
But some people actually do read it. I know Chrystal and Jodi do. I know my friend and fellow blogger Jennifer Williams does.
So, for you three... and anyone else who cares to read along, here we go on what I hope becomes a better attempt at keeping up with technology and with friends and family.

Let me start by discussing my NEW JOB! :)


As of this past Monday, I officially started working as a photographer for a portable, nation-wide studio called Image One Studios. We specialize in on-location executive portraits and from what I can tell, I'm going to be very happy with this job.
The only downsides are:
1) I have to wake up early
2) I have to wake up REAAAAALLY early....
3) I have to drive in rush hour traffic.
4) I need an accountant (which I probably could use anyway)
5) I sometimes don't have time for lunch. lol

But all those things aside, I'm working for a stable company that finds the work for me AND I'm finally doing photography full-time! Yay!

What else, what else? My family is doing well!

Aythen, my nephew, will be a year old in less than a month!

Chrystal, my older sister, is...well, her birthday was Monday...(not sure she'd be happy with me telling you how OLD she is). Oh, and I'm not sure if I've told you, but she's also PREGNANT for the 2nd time!! With yet another BOY!
P.S. if one more person tells her how stupid the name Vaughn is, she'll cut a bitch. lol.

Jodi is working at Goodfella's in Beaumont and finally loving her job, as well. :)

(Jodi & I at the IMAX theatre to see Alice in Wonderland)
I'm still living in Sugar Land with Maggie & Coco.
And still dating Will Ebarb. :)


Things are pretty damn good. And I hope it stays that way for a little while...

Thanks for reading and have fun this weekend!

Miss you and you and you,
Jessi
