Lately I've started to have mini panic attacks just from looking at my house. Its a disorganized MESS! Last night I had to put Noah in his crib, shut the door, go into my bedroom, and scream as hard as I could into my pillow.... Thats how stressed out I was (and still kind of am). My kitchen has been a mess for about a week and it still smells like the oil burning incident we had a few nights ago... long story short, Jordan left a burner on that had a pot of oil on top of it and it started on fire and we didn't notice until our kitchen was filled with smoke. My bedroom has piles of maternity clothes and other things that don't fit anymore and I don't have a clue where to put them. Noah's room still isn't organized and done yet and we're starting to pile up clothes that don't fit him now too. In every corner I look there is just a huge mess and I can't seem to find the motivation or the time to clean or organize it. AND on top of all that, I'm the worst laundry do-er there ever was. True story. At this very moment my washer and dryer are filled with towels and clothes. Ugh... I'm just a stress case waiting to explode.
Also, last night I had to go get an eye exam and am now waiting for my two pairs of glasses to be finished so I can pick them up. I've never worn glasses before so that should be fun.
And you may be wondering why I'm blogging instead of going to clean up my disaster of a house... good question... but its too late now because my Noah just woke up and needs to be changed and fed and paid attention to. Thats one thing I can do without complaining about. Maybe later today I'll find some motivation somewhere.................

Life goes on...
So I've been trying to figure out how to customize the header on this thing and can't seem to find the html I need to change to do it (if you're reading and have a cute, customized header on your blog, do share :D)... so for now my blog is kind of ugly. haha oh well.
So its a new year. Not much has changed except that I'm now looking for a new job. I just have to say, job hunting sucks. Its been over a year since I've had to apply for a job and its not very fun. I hate that thought of being rejected and I admit, I'm not the most confidant person in the world. In the past I've always gotten the jobs I've applied for... always. Buts thats because I've only applied for the ones I knew I could get. For example... Ottavios (2006)- one of my dads accounts; Claires (2006-07)- my best friend at the time worked for Icing and recommended me; Payless (2007)- same story; Remedez (2007-08)- I'm a really good massage therapist and had the right qualifications; Sanctuary (2008-09)- Knew the product line from working for Remedez and I'm a great therapist; The Spa at Hotel Park City (2009-10)- My sister worked there and recommended me.
So now here I am.... jobless and looking for work. Its so intimidating looking for a job! Yesterday I was getting ready to go out and get my resume to a few places and I was desperately trying to find an excuse not to go. Luckily I have a husband who is super encouraging and understanding (and has this way of making me want to be better and try harder). So off I went. Into the world to try and find work. I haven't heard from anyone yet but I still have a few more places to apply.
Other than trying to find work, I'm just trying to keep my head above water. Trying really hard to stay happy and positive that things will get better. Not an easy task I might add. Having little Noah helps a lot... his smiles keep me from totally breaking down everyday. Knowing that I have him to take care of and relying on me keeps me going. Not everyone is as understanding as my husband and my son are as to what I'm going through. One thing I learned in 2010 is that I have to be very careful of the things I write on my own blog because I know a few people who get offended by pretty much everything. In fact, they'll probably get offended by that very sentence.
I'm hoping 2011 will bring some new and exciting things to our lives. 2010 was such a great year, I'm not sure 2011 will even compare! Here are some highlights from our year...
