A "Me" Day and Another Dock!?

From here to there to every place in between, I am officially tired of three jobs. I haven't had a "me" day in forever and I dont see one anytime in the near future. Ok, well... scratch that, I dont wanna lie. I do get to go visit my friend in CA for a week in December and go to Disneyland!!!!! Yeah, thats right! Be Jealous! I can't wait to see her and just relax, hang out, and spend time at the happiest place on earth!

I feel bad complaining about having three jobs. There are some people out there who don't even have one, and I am very blessed to be able to pay my bills and be comfortable. Even livin' in the "big city" now. But I need to start taking care of me and that includes not running myself ragged just because I can't say no. I stress myself out trying to do everything for everyone and I need to stop. I don't know when I will learn but I am going to try starting now. (we'll see how long this lasts :P )

Senior picture procrastination season is upon us! October is the busiest month out of the year for pictures. For me at least. Seniors are so busy with high school life that they put pictures off until the last minute and then realize they don't want their school picture as their yearbook picture. I don't blame them and I try and accommodated as much as I have time for. The result is, running myself ragged. I do though because I love it. I would much rather be doing this all the time. If I can duplicate October's salary to all the other months in the year, I would be set with just one job! The one I prefer. But, unfortunately, it hasn't happened for me yet... yet. But it will.

This October has been one year since I left the YMCA in Port Angeles and jumped off that dock. I jumped in faith and the Lord has more than provided and opened so many doors I can't even count! The Lord is soooo good its overwhelming! He's my life jacket in the ocean of life! hehe For those of you who have been with me since last year (Thank you to those people!!!!) you know exactly what I'm talking about. I was talking with a really good friend the other day and she asked if I was coming up to another dock to jump off of. That definitely got me thinking.
Am I?
Should I be?
The answer I came up with is yes. I should be. Now I just have to find that faith deep down inside again and find that dock to jump off. Not sure what I will be jumping into or how long it will take, but I definitely need to take that next step in life and I'm excited about it!

I've been back up to PA a lot lately. Last weekend I was up and did three photoshoots. I posted Amy's pictures all on my facebook page (Amy's Senior Pictures ) and if you're not a fan of my page, or I guess now its "like" it, then WHY NOT!!?!?! Get with the program people! ;)
I also got the pleasure of meeting Jessica and Travis, two Seniors at Sequim High School, and did their senior pictures. I was really nervous about the weather and it being really dark, but it ended up being almost perfect! I worked with it and I think I got some great shots!!
I'm still working on Travis's pictures, but here are a good handful of Jessica's shots.

Jessica, You were fabulous!!! Loved the hair, loved the eyes, loved you! Hope these live up to your expectations!! (and I know you have high expectations! Which honestly freaked me out a little! haha)
Enjoy!
