It is finished...

Technically, I am waiting to hear from a limousine company as to their rates, I need to have a picture taken for my website via the school (I think my friend ME will do those honors on Friday--no she doesn't know yet!)and, I need to turn in Unit F, then, I can say I am done with my classes! I will receive my International Event and Wedding Planner Certificate! Can you hear the bombs bursting? The firecrackers exploding? Okay, me either...

Haven't really been updating about my di--, I mean, weight loss program... Well, when we went to Colorado, I only (yes, only) gained 3 lbs. I weighed again today and I am down 7.2 pounds...so, technically, I have lost 11 lbs. to date. Did you hear them? The bombs, fireworks...okay, they are only in my imagination (I think I must get that checked).

It seems, other areas of my life are falling a part (won't go into detail, way too personal--not that I don't trust you...), but, I seem to be doing okay in those two areas. But, the big question remaining is...now what? Oh, the weight loss program thing, I will keep trudging along. I seem to have a grasp on that (for a fleeting moment at least). It's the whole new career thing...

Where do I start? Ideally, if I were a rich man...I mean, woman (I wanted to stat singing that song); I would start my own business. I have purchased the domain name Treasured Events and Weddings.com. Not sure how to get it up and running. I guess I have time to figure that all out...Do I hit the pavement with a newly revised resume (Joyesha, are you available to help craft a new one??) to focus on the new career and go to every known hotel, business, restaurant, etc., that may hire event planners? Or, do I contact the various planners in the Lincoln/Omaha area and ask them if they will hire me so I can suck all their knowledge from their brains...okay, I won't word it that way. You get the idea...what to do, where to go...and - all - that - jazz...

All I know, is this girl was not meant to be a domestic goddess. This girl also likes to do things that take that green stuff; you know, moolah, a.k.a. MONEY. I have no income coming in, not like I was used to in Maryland. I think it would help our family, at least help to put money away for our son's college education and, perhaps retirement (although, I question my ability to handle retirement after the hard time I am having not currently being employed...but, that's for another time!).

*Deep Sigh* So, if you know of anyone needing to hire an event and/or wedding planner, don't forget we (me) here at Treasured Events and Weddings are waiting to make your event a treasured memory! Okay, need to work on advertising too...
