This year seems to be flying by. 
I've been incredibly busy with two jobs, three daughters and a new apartment. Couldn't afford the old house any more. Ha ha, what else is new.
Work is going... We were aquired by a large "corp" restaurant group and things have been changing dramatically. Half of our area managers are gone, laid off. Labor and cost budgets are...

Thank you so much for your comment on my set Hockey-girl in MR!
WOW!
After a little over a year since I've been able to go on line.
You see, my house was broken into a year ago last September and I lost a butt load of stuff. I use the term stuff because, really, it's all just stuff. (Some will never be replaced) But, my daughters, the most important part of my life were not home (nor...

Next Monday I leave on vacation to New York.
(here comes the drama)
After the last year and a half, I need a vacation. Going through a nasty divorce and working my ass of in my current position as a restaurant manager, I need a break. Couple that with the fact that I haven't seen any of my family since a year ago last April...

I have several New Years resolutions this year. First I am going to start playing basketball again. I miss it and it's a really good work out. Oh yah, I 'm going to visit "Joseph's Gym" at least three times a week. I know what you're thinking, "yah right". Now, if all goes well, the smokes will be next and then (oh...

Hmmm...I have a couple different thoughts on this, I have to say I have no disagreements with photoshopping. To a certain extent...heavy photoshopping, and completly altering someone is obviously pointless and not a representation of the person...
I think of photos are not only a presentation of someone, but also a form of art, like painting...I don't think removing, or keeping for that matter, a blemish takes away from anyone..just depends what you are going for with the art piece.
photos are like paintings...a representation of someones style, look and personality...would a painter keep in blemishes? I guess it depends what he/she is going for... (fyi: the word photography, derives from 'painting with light')
Take reagan for example...she has fun portraying herself uber natural (Reagan: Naked)...and she also has fun showing her physicality in a perhaps "less natural looking" way.......its not a mask..no one's dropping 50 pounds with photoshop lol....photoshopped or not..she is obviously still lovely, and still looks like Reagan, with her beautiful eyes and defined jaw line.. I don't think photoshopping out minor blemishes relates to ones self-confidence...I look at it as a helpfull artistic tool...
on another hand, when you see someone in person, that beauty in reality is hard to capture on camera...I've noticed I don't notice natural blemish like zits on someone at all when they are moving around in real life, but when frozen in a photograph are quite noticeable and draw my attention away from a whole balanced image. Also pimples come and go anyway...some days I have em, some days I don't so why keep em for a picture that lasts forever? I don't think its a big deal....or a relation to self-esteem...
wow, I wrote alot..ooops!

Thanks for the comment!
Thanks for the comment!
Fall is finally here!
This is my favorite season. It's getting cooler, leaves are turning and the holidays are right around the corner. You can smell it in the air.
I actually had to break out a jacket and turn the heater on. I hate that dusty smell when it kicks in for the first time.
Not much else new and thrilling...
Work's good, kids...

I love fall too, but I have a little place for springtime in my heart.
I like the strong warm winds, although it can be a little bothersome on the allergic side.
