Wedding Funeral Day.

So I had just barely arrived at work today. I hadn't even put my purse away or checked my messages when I got my first page. It was  someone who needed a stylist.. I asked her what I could do for her. I hear

"We'll, my husband's going to pass away tomorrow and I need something to wear to his funeral service."She continues to talk about her sizing and dress needs. I just listened with my jaw dropped, taking notes. She came in later this afternoon. It just affected me so much. I can't even imagine watching my husband die. preparing for it. I love what I do for many reasons, but the biggest one is that I get to make people's lives easier. Every day I get to help people, give them confidence. Shopping can be so overwhelming. and when you're going out of town and need something to wear, finding it is just one more thing. Or when you're planning your husband's funeral.. the dress you're wearing is the last thing you want to do.

I love what I do, and I'm good at it.

It's always such a confidence booster when other places offer me a job. In the past month as a stylist, I've been offered 6 sales positions (not all retail!) at different companies around atlanta. The economy sucks, and people are trying to hire me left and right. It just goes to prove, that companies want to hire, but they want someone who is going to be excelent and pay off for them. Im thankful that I have options, but I'm thankful that Im in the best place I could be now. With a wonderful husband.... :)

It's almost been 2 years since we've been married. Best 2 years of my life. I have the most wonderful, currently sunburned, husband in the world who I'm madly in love with. What a wonderful life.
