Rough couple weeks....

It's been a rough couple weeks here at the Staples household. We were just a few weeks away from opening the day spa, and due to some issues that were brought to the surface, and my business partner and I were not seeing eye to eye, so I knew I had to get out before it got any worse. I went through my phases of disappointment and sadness, but thanks to the support of my wonderful husband and family, I realized, it's only a minor setback for me. Someday I will open the spa I've dreamed about, and when I do, I will know not to make the same mistakes made this time. God has a different plan for me and I will trust that!

So for now, it's back to job searching. :( Ugh... and it hasn't been easy. I've applied for 14 jobs and so far not even and interview. It would be much easier if I could speak spanish (since that is a requirement for many of the open jobs here in Casa Grande).

Thankfully I have been able to start as a makeup artist for Motives Cosmetics, and although it's not a full time salary NOW, it has the potential to be in the near future. I'm very excited about the opportunities I will have, including wedding makeup, photo shoots, tv/film, and training as well!

So I just need to find another part time "something" for a while.

Otherwise~

All is well with Shawn, Reggie, Stackhouse, Zoey, and myself. I'm getting very excited for the holidays. With the holidays, however, I'm missing our family very much. I wish we could be home to celebrate with you!

We love you and miss you all!
