Prior to year 2010, it was just about juggling work from home...stuff that a wife, a mother and a thriving business woman does. I manage the house, take care of son, my husband,my business ( food business). Once in a while I had to mind my parents and siblings and their children.
From 2007- present, My favorite source of entertainment and learning has always been "the net" . From it I learned to create pages, and socialize via Multiply, Yahoo 360, Blogspot, Friendster and I took the opportunity to do online business. I made lots of "friends" locally and abroad. Im like a social butterfly. I read thousands of post from these friends and learned from them. We designed our own pages. Its from Multiply and Blogger that I learned to tweak CSS. There's some sort of happiness I felt there.
I stopped. Just like that. I go back when I am not busy with more important matters called "Real Life".
I don't go out with friends like I used to when I was single. In between those years I missed them. I missed my old life. The young, vibrant, strong willed self.
I started to get back to an old business- supplying corporate and promotional items after my RTW business didnt do well. I learned about this way back 2000. My ex live- in partner for 17 years from 1997 and now officially my wedded husband (5 months since Dec. 30th, 2015) opened the said business and I learned from it. But since I do not have the full knowledge and training to do sales, i get frustrated easily before. My experiences is my sole teacher. I supply Corporate gifts and promotional Items to small and large companies and organizations. Of course my hubby teaches me as well. But I guess my heart just wasnt there yet.
I learned to design, photoshop, layout, and had to learn by myself by researching on line. Since I got so into it, and loved every minute of it, learning isn't that hard. I discovered myself once more. I thought my life belongs to the stage, the lights, the loud instruments and will only hear my singing voice... A life long forgotten. I was wrong.
So while I do my business I felt it was time to spread my wings.... And learn how to fly.
I couldn't pass the opportunity of joining an organization that aims to End Polio, like totally!
An organization most people have the notion of "for the Rich, the retired, the old " ...
Some thought It was service and surveillance since my hubby is the first one to join. Will tell you more about it real soon. . .
