I am a part-time blogger. I am full-time mom and wife. I also currently work full-time at a local news station in the "engineering" department as a Master Control Operator. And I am in the middle of debating my career decisions. I took this current job after being sales associate at a local retail jewelry store for six years. I am not a naturally competitive person (not to the point where I will steal sales from my co-workers [friends] & overcharge customers when business is down - not that that happened...but it was seeming to get to that point). I am extremely honest and I have absolutely no poker face. Everything I think shows straight on my face for the world to see. Which is the reason behind the name of my current blog, Bright Eyed & Brazen. Ultimately, I want to write. My dream in high school was to write for Rolling Stone magazine. Obviously having married, having a kid, with another on the way, and a house we're paying a mortgage on - that's probably not going to happen. But I still have the passion. So I have taken to freelance writing with the possibility of actually making money from it. I am also considering becoming a high school journalism teacher, to spread the passion.
