New Job?!

Hey everyone.

I know it has been a while since I've posted, a lot has been going on (I will do a catch up post asap).

I do have so amazing news! I have a NEW JOB! Duh, the title.

For about three years, I've been doing Freelance work, Makeup Artist & Graphic Design. It was all I could handle in that part of my life. I wasn't myself. I might have seemed it on the outside online, going out with friends and other things. But me on the inside? I wasn't me at all.

Little recap....

May 2015, My family and I went through a horrible trauma. I developed PTSD, trauma depression and the most life changing, anxiety. Sometimes I couldn't go out with friends, I would be in bed and my mind couldn't tell me to get up. It was a really horrible time in my life. The trauma changed my whole life in a wink of an eye. I lost my job, I worked with special needs, and that made things worse. I never thought I would be able to work again with all my mental health "issues." I almost signed up for some programs to help me out with my bills and all that. Thank goodness I was living at home and not on my own. I don't know how I would have done my life without my family during that time in my life.

Flash forward 3 1/2 years... & to the journey of a new job...

I started my new "career," blogging. It made me so happy. Going to all these amazing events and meeting new friends. I felt like the old me was back. I saw that a clothing store that I really like and follow on Instagram were hiring. I messaged them and they told me to apply and then set up an interview. Interview was amazing and I walked out with a JOB! I couldn't believe it. A year a go I couldn't do that. My family and friends were all so proud of me and that made me even happier. I did this by myself for myself. I still cannot believe it. And? My first day is tomorrow! This happened all fast and it still hasn't hit me yet.
