Confronting challenges is so stressful... just when you think you figured it out something else comes up!
Confrontation #1: I finally opened up my store on etsy. I haven't posted any items yet because I need to take better pictures but I'm working really hard at getting everything up and running. So please spread the word and tell people about my site. They can visit The Trinket Trunk at http://www.marisolmarysol.etsy.com/
Confrontation #2: For some time now I've been debating whether or not I should remove my "acrylic" nails. Acrylic nails are so 5yrs ago but I just couldn't part with them.I kept trying to tell myself I would but would instantly talk myself out of it. One reason I never removed them was because I'm 5'1(since the 5Th grade) and my hands w/out nails literally look like an Umpa Lumpa's hand. Thank God fake nails were invented!!! Like I mentioned before, my hands look like an Umpa Lumpa's hand w/out nails but w/nails... I have ELONGATED fingers!! Now, when your my height any inch you can get...u'll take. Its been 2 whole days w/out my nails and I'm miserable. I'm not sure how much longer I can go without!
For Amy's pleasure:
Look how short my hands look...should I audition to be an Umpa Lumpa?
Confrontation#3: October 18th will be 2years my father passed of a heart attack. Its been a loooong journey to recovery but I thank God for the strength! On Nov.1st, Houston is having a "heart walk" which helps fund raise money for heart disease & strokes. My sister and I have decided to create a team of our own and participate, in addition to fundraising money for research. I will send out an email to all friends and family so that we can get pledges towards our team. Because I didnt want to make anyone feel obligated, I've made our team goal $500 to raise but I'm hoping we can raise more. Being that my father's name is Hector... I decided to name our group, Team Hector...warriors against heart disease. (google Hector and you'll see how I came up with the name.)
Confrontation #4: Oct.8th is my 27th birthday...ugh! I am grateful that God has allowed me to live this long but it only means...MORE RESPONSIBILITIES! Can I just be a kid again??? Worry free....no bills, no job, NO STRESS!!!
Confrontation #5: School has become so stressful as well! I'm finally at the intern stage in my curriculum and I have yet to do any intern hours. I work full time and it is hard for the agency to find me evening hours. I have to make a decision soon, either my job works w/me or I'm going into retail. I have to find a way to get hours. I can NOT stay in school much longer....I'm too old for this "starving student" crap!
Now you see why confronting all these issues can be challenging???? And trust me, I've left out a few but I figured I would touch on the important points only!!

Hey there! Well as for your confrontations think of them as mini-goals. Can I suggest something? Try to set them up on a calendar and then you can highlight them by colors. Like fun stuff is one color and school stuff another. I COMPLETELY understand your overwhelming feelings but it is a sign of all the responsibilities you like bc if you didn't do anything you'd feel worse. You are the type that likes to stay busy and then get overwhelmed, I am the same way, must be a libra thing. BUT with that said set them up as mini-goals on a weekly basis that are part of your month. That way it is less stressful and you feel like everyday you accomplish something related to your laundry list of stuff. Hope this help! Can you tell I just got out of class, with my counselor hat still on? Well good luck and see ya this weekend. We're taking the boys too and E. has his dog too. We might be out numbered bc of the dogs, jaja. Well see ya later and let the drama continue.
