Bad Hair/Good Hair

So I went to have may hair done last week....I wanted to be blonde which I was partly already blonde but wanted it all over. I asked my hair dresser to put the blonde in my hair that was already in it. I sat there and thought this is going to look great.... HELL NO!!! SHE BLEACHED MY HAIR!!! I was pissed but then thought it would darken a bit.. what was I thinking. I was so humiliated that I wore a hat all weekend and looked like a trashy stripper with my WHITE hair. Hayden asked me why I had white hair and when I told him that they messed up he said..."you are still beautiful to me mommy" That just made my day.

So it was so bad that I could not go to work yesterday and be seen with this hair. SO I broke down and went to Schardein and company to have it fixed. BROOKE is awesome and did a fantastic job to make me look great. I was so humiliated that I could not look at myself in the mirror all weekend and even yesterday when I was in there getting it done. After she colored it and (cut it off) I was able to look at myself in the mirror again. Thanks Brooke Pickett you are so wonderful and my new hair dresser!!! Will save the money now to go see Brooke....:)

Great News!!!

Talked with my attorney on Sunday about Shawn. What she had to say made my day. Here are the stats as of today 10-27-09

Last Saw Hayden: January 10th 2008
Last heard form Shawn: July 6th 2008
Tried to set up time for him to see Hayden up until July 2008 and he always made something up on why he could not make it. (WHATEVER)

So I am getting the best of both worlds.

1. Hayden has a father/dad Scott Tribbey
2. I am getting Child Support
3. Do not have to worry about Shawn
4. Scott can adopt Hayden after we have been married for a year without any problems.
5. Life is great and I am happy

Long time no Blog

Ok so it has been a long while since I have blogged. SO her is what has been going on.

Work:
It is going well. Things have slowed down a bit but still busy. Not as many meetings as I was having when I first started so that is a great thing because I do not have time to sit in meetings all day long. I have a few big events coming up that I have booked and very happy to be her and do what I do.

Hayden:
Is growing up way to fast. I can not believe that he will be 4 in January. He seems so much older then that. He is talking up a storm and our conversations are longer and longer every time. He can write his name and a few letters out of the alphabet. He can say his numbers almost to 30 now. He can read a few books and is one smart kid. I am so blessed with a wonderful child.

Scott:
We are doing well. Could not be happier with anyone else ever. He is such an amazing man and father to our son. He loves Hayden so much and is so good with him. We are bowling again this year together so that is nice to have some time with him every Monday night while we bowl. Our team is doing well and love Mondays.

I will post some new pictures soon when I can get them to the office.

So that is what has been going on. Robin it was great to see you yesterday!! Hope to see you again soon.... Miss you muches.

I'm the BOSS!!!

OMG I was called Boss twice on Friday. Ok now that is cool but strange at the same time. I love my new job and so blessed to have it. I have a lot of people (ie my old bosses) that know I can do this. I will definitely take how they were and apply it to my job and hopefully can be as good of a boss as Gary and John were to me. They are wonderful men and I am so thankful to have had them both as my boss.

Jaimie: Yes I am the boss and it is strange but kinda fun at the same time.

Two Weeks Down

It has been two weeks now since I took my new job and OMG!!! I am running around with my head cut off. It is stressful and non stop going and going and going but I will make it.

I have a team of 4 ladies who work for me. I am trying to rearrange the office and trying to make sure that our goals are met each month. They are not computerized either.

HOW CAN WE FUNCTION WITHOUT COMPUTERS!!!!

Ok so I created a few things on the computer so that we can function correctly and when I am asked for stats or a report I can pull it off the computer and not have to go back and hand write everything out.

I am trying to get pictures updated, the look of the Hotel ETC. This is a great job and I am blessed that I have it. Keep me in your prayers that I have the strength to go on.

On a better note:

Hayden is doing well. He is in daycare/preschool and loving it. He is growing like a weed. He is wearing 4/5 size clothes and is not even 4 yet. He is a cute and loves to talk, talk, talk. He comes up with some stories that he has worked hard to think about but are so cute. He read to Scott and I last night instead of us reading to him. It was so cute.

Scott and I are doing well. We have been looking at houses for us. With the tax credit and his discount with Ideal Homes we have been thinking about buying now and taking advantage of it. We agreed that we would not live together until we were at least engaged so that has to come fist then the house. I am excited to look for a house that we can live in together as a family and raise Hayden.

I got a JOB!!!

Ok so it is about time!!! I finally got a job. After almost 2 months without one I finally found one and a good one at that. I will be the Marketing and Sales Director for the Biltmore Hotel. I am so excited and can not hardly wait. This is going to be a hard job but one I know I will do well at.

No what to wear on my first day..... Oh I hate this after 5.5 years of wearing jeans, shorts, t-shirts and hats to work I have to dress up again. It is like the first day of school. What to wear and what not to wear. Oh well I will find the perfect outfit soon.

I will update tomorrow after my first day on the job and tell you all about it. For now I have to finish cleaning the house and hang my curtains I got for my Birthday (yes Robin I know that was back in March) Get over it!! :) I am just now getting around to doing it. Off to cleaning.

Robin and Zetta it was great to see you girls today. I really miss you both and wish I could bring you all to my job so we could all be together again. Maybe I will see what I can do.. HUM that would be great. Love you both and will see you soon. I am just down I-40 from you all so not far to come and see me.

For Robin

Here you go Robin.

It has been a while since I posted anything... so here is what has been going on since my last post.

Last day of work at ARAMARK was June 30th. It was a sad day and one I thought would never come but it did. It was a Tuesday and for the rest of that Tuesday and week it was hard to think that I didn't have a job to go back to. Felt a bit like a Vacation and I would be back to work that following Monday. Well I decided to have a garage sale and use this time off to look for a job and get my house together.

I had a huge Garage sale and with my mothers help it was fantastic. I worked so hard and was up so early both Friday and Saturday. Once it was over Mom and I packed everything else up and took it to the church for good will. I was done and didn't want to hold on to anymore of it any longer. I have been known to be a pack-rat and I was glad to see it all go.

I have continued to look for jobs. Been on a few interviews but nothing is panning out. I have applied for a job at my church as the All events coordinator (which was my mothers job that she resigned from June 30th) And also as the Church Secretary. At this point this is the only lead that I have and will have my second interview tomorrow Monday August 17th. It has been nice not working but now that severance is over (only 3 weeks) and my Vacation payed out I am in need of a job. I worked at State Farm as a temp with my dad's company for a week and that was a lot of fun. But I can not keep doing these temp jobs. Hopefully I will have an answer tomorrow night.

Hayden is growing up so fast. He is now 3 years 7 months old and is so smart. A few weeks ago at church Robert (our Pastor) gave Hayden the "box" which he gives a different child each week for children's time. They are to bring something in the box to surprise us and that is what Robert focuses the children's lesson on. Well when I asked Hayden what he wanted to bring he said "shoes" Why shoes I asked....(in a voice like you are so stupid mother) he said "because it is a shoe box" I just started laughing. So Hayden took one of his shoes and one of my high heal shoes. It was a good sermon and good laugh for the congregation.

Hayden is now talking about Santa and that he is coming and he has to be a good boy. That is a good thing because i need a good boy every day.

Scott and I are doing great. We are going on 1 year and 6 months in September and I could not be happier with him then I am. Hopefully we will be hearing wedding bells soon and buying a house in the next year. Hayden and I alone are too much now for my little house and to add one more would be hard. Scott works for Ideal Homes and they have some of the best houses that I have seen for new home construction. So we have thought about building a house. Where not sure yet because one thing is where is it best for Hayden to go to school. He has three more years at Village Montessori before he starts 1st grade. OMG 1st grade that is freaky..... Time flys when you are having fun.

Well I will get off here now and post more later Robin... I will also post some pictures of things that have gone on with Hayden, Scott and the rest of my family.
