So, we all know I seriously dislike what I do for a living

Other than what I get paid, it pretty much sucks.

Obviously I have always wanted to be an interior decorator, which is lame, but it is what I enjoy. 

I got my first client today!  Right now, I am just trying to build my portfolio (I am helping a guy at work as well, so I guess I have two clients, technically) and Snowful is going to help me make a blog.  I doubt this will ever become a full time gig but I am excited to have SOME creativity in my life.....

    Exactly this! 

    No....click me!!!! Cause I'm the wedding bio! Bloggin it up! Prince Charming stole my heart and we rode off on his white horse...

  • That is so so so great! I'm really excited for you! And so jealous. I was elbow deep in a 600 lb man's groin yesterday at work and I had to keep reminding myself about my nice paycheck, but money isn't everything when you hate your job. I'm glad you get to start dabbling in something you enjoy.

  • When you need super awesome images of your designs for the blog/website give me a shout! Good luck!

  • That is so exciting!! I am a believer that you'll be successful if you're doing what you love Wink. Make sure and show us your blog when you're finished! And, let me know if you need help (I just got done totally re-doing my website/blog with wordpress and prophoto) I'm not a pro web designer or anything... but I did just get done doing it all so it's somewhat fresh on my mind. 
  • That's so awesome! I hope it does turn into something full-time; that would be great, especially since that's what you love. :)

  • That is awesome! I can't wait until you get a blog going so I can have some inspiration when helping others decorate.

  • OH, I never considered having professional images taken, that is a good idea. Sadly, it is too late for the "befores" of the houses I have already finished but it might be a good idea to have professional "afters" taken of my house and professional "befores" of the houses I am about to start (although one is mid reno and I forgot to take before pictures - argh!). Huh.  Let me get with Snowful and see what she thinks.

    I think this will be a good side job just to keep my mind working in a creative direction. I have invested way too much time in my career just to throw it to the side. 

  • That's fun. I'm glad for you that you're starting this up.
