OMG Ya'll I'm so sorry I've been soooo out of touch. I come around and read every now and again and I've been praying for everyone that's been dealing with so much! I love you all and I'm sorry I haven't been around.
At home we have dial-up and the connection is SUPER slow, plus in general I've been using my Godmother's computer which is also slow and makes it inconvenient to check email, surf while trying to do anything else! (man I miss my wifi!).
But now I've got the laptop set up too so I can multi task! And while I'm still on dialup... at least I can do more than just surf (ie chat, eat, drink soda, watch tv... all the favorites! lol).
So, my news... Most of my news is pretty good actually. I've been really getting into my photography and recently redid my website in an effort to branch into something slightly more professional (http://SarahCatePhotography.com)
And the "great" job I got in February.... well... in April they informed us that they were closing our location by the end of June (if not sooner!!), so I've been FRANTICALLY hunting for a new job... and praying a lot that something would come along soon... And... finally...
I start my new job on June 4th!! I'll be working at Lifetouch Photography (a Portrait Studio that's HUGE down here... they do most of the school/yearbook/senior portraiture around here, and although I'll be starting as a customer service representative... they have an intense photographer training program that I can get into after awhile too. I cannot WAIT!
I'll also be glad to leave my current job, which is sooo good because I'm really tired of it. Although it was something I COULD have done for a year, or two, or five while I looked for the perfect thing, I'm very glad I don't have to!
The new job is a little less money, but it's the first job I've had that has the potential to lead into the CAREER I really want!
Otherwise, not much going on... living and spent most of my last month or so job hunting so I'm glad to be done with that. Still LOVING living with my godmother, we get along perfectly and because we have the same weird sense of humor we crack each other up all the time. It's been great... and she's super giving and although I rarely ASK for help... I often realize (too late) that she's paid for my groceries, or replenished my diet coke... :)
It's been lovely.
I'm going to try to get over here more often, but even if I don't... know that I Adore ALL of you and I think about and pray for all of you incessantly!
Sarie.

SARIE!!!! Oh my goodness girl it's so good to hear from you. We've missed you around here.
Things sound like they are wonderful for you now. I can't tell you how happy I am for you. Photography is a wonderful career. I think that you have the talent for that and you'll do great. Anthony had his formal senior portraits done at Lifetouch.
My sister in law who's an Assistant Chief Probation Officer by day is a photographer by weekends doing weddings and such. Check out her site. Might give you some ideas. http://www.terihallphotography.com/ Anthony is on there along with my nephew and his wife.
Well it's great hearing from ya kiddo. Take care for now and I'll talk at ya later.
Glad your alive and well!! Good to hear you start a job with a very promising career as well! Hope you have a good time there and glad and good to hear from you.
