New Beginnings

This week was my first week at my new job. At first I was nervous...well I'm still a little nervous, but I am loving it. I love the thrill and the challenge - especially in the position I am in with a new property and introducing it to old and new clients. This week has FLOWN by because I have been so busy. So far all my coworkers are great and we're all getting along fabulously, so I hope it stays that way lol!

Aiden had his first professional haircut recently and since then he has walked around with a whole new attitude. He is definitely growing into that "Terrible Toddler" stage. He is becoming more aggressive with his friends at daycare and with mommy & daddy... and so begins the discipline... At the same time, he is becoming more affectionate. He reminds of those Sour Patch Kids commercials "One minute they're sour, the next they're sweet".

My mom came down last week for her Spring Break and it was great to see her. I felt bad because I was a little hard on her for some things, but I can get stressed easily. She remembers me being this carefree spirit when I lived at home and while I was in college, and now, well I'm stressed! I mean not all the time, but I feel like I have to stay on top of things, like I'm the only one to keep some order or control in the house or in my life at times.... but anyways, we got to do a little shopping and I showed her the venue and we bought my dress! Since then she has been very into the wedding planning lol...that makes one of us :)

Big Things Happening!

Starting on Monday, March 15, 2010, I will be joining the Sales Team at the new Sonesta Hotel Downtown Orlando as a SALES MANAGER!!! That's right, I put in my two weeks yesterday...no more being the office bitch, no more KITCHEN DUTY, no more "can you fax this for me, I don't know how it works" and no more being BROKE!!! WOOHOO!!! It was really hard to put my notice in yesterday because my current company tried really hard to keep me and did a great job of giving me the guilt trip, but they were very nice about it. To top of my skyrocketing ego, I received an email from Sprint today regarding a position that I had interview for a couple of months ago inviting me to "take the only employment application to move forward". Talk about timing huh? Change is scary, but I couldn't be more excited to finally start my career doing what I love!
