Happy Life

My girlfriend asked me the other day about blogging, and it has had me itching to get back. I love being able to look back on life and remember the little moments that slip my mind. 

Oaklee is 15 months, a diva, with more personality then I know how to handle sometimes. She stuck her pointer finger out at me the other day and said "don't" all because I took MY phone away. I was taken back, but also a little proud that I have such a smartie on my hands. Smart and sassy, just like her mommma. I guess I have no one else to blame but myself. Ok, I try and blame it on Jamaine, but lets be honest anyone that knows me -- knows where she gets it from. I am okay with that, heck I turned out okay! 

We have our own place again, and this time I bought all the furniture in my apartment, besides Oaklee's room, we already had that thanks to our lovely family and friends. But, I must say I have really enjoyed buying and decorating. Its MINE and I love it! There is much more to do, but with time and more money it will come. 

Speaking of money. This chick landed a FULL TIME SALARY JOB. Holy crap, right? I never thought I would see the day. The best part is I get to work from home, my meetings are scheduled on my time. Its fantastic. I love what I do! 

Oaklee started going to daycare three times a week, a month ago. I must admit I had anxiety the first week or two, I am not sure if she was having a hard time or if it was all me. We both have adjusted and I enjoy having me time. She is doing so well there and gets along with the other kids great. The only thing I dont like is the constant runny nose that she has had lately. Daycare is to blame for that.

We spent our summer in Texas and enjoyed it. Oaklee was able to see her Johnson grandparents often, and loved going to the pool everyday. I loved the pool too :) From Texas we "moved" to NYC. I took an internship out there.. and LOVED it, but after spending 10 days and over 2,000 on hotels I decided it wasn't the best fit for Oaklee and I. Oh how I miss it so much, and wish more then anything it could have worked. However, I know... Everything happens for a reason, and for that I am grateful. I am so happy where I am in my life. 

A few weeks ago, I started advertising my photography (on insta and fb.. dont know if that is really advertising) and have already booked 6 shoots. I absolutely LOVE taking pictures, and the extra income is sure nice. 

Well, I am back!! Expect to see more from me.
