For as long as I can remember, friends and family have called me Suzy Sunshine because of my positive attitude. However, life has been a challenge, lately, and that is putting it mildly. The project that I have been working on for the past two years is fast coming to a close, and once it is done, I’m without a job. It’s a scary prospect. Of course, I should have seen it coming. I should have seen it coming when they insisted I participate in the project, even though I really didn’t want to. It was only for a month – and I can do anything for a month. When a month had stretched into nine months, and every time I tried to broach the subject of returning to my old position I was told, “That’s what you get for being good at what you do,” I should have seen it coming. Now, my old position is gone, and none of the other positions I’ve interviewed for has been a good fit. What a way to learn the truth – no good deed goes unpunished.
Pizza Night!
Last night, I worked until 10 at night. My mom got home from work around the same time, so we decided to put in a pizza. That’s always the quickest and easiest option when we get home late from work. It’s also one of the tastiest. We chose to make a frozen supreme pizza. Since our oven is brand new, it takes a little bit longer to preheat. About a half hour after we put the pizza in, it was ready to eat. It had green peppers, onions, pepperoni, sausage, cheese, and sauce. The crust was great. It was thick and had a homemade taste to it, even though it came from a local grocery store.
Proud to be a mom
I am among many women in this world who are happy looking after their family by giving up their career. As a mother of 2 sweet kids I find it worth to have given up my career for them as I strongly feel that children need full care and attention which is a bit difficult to provide if you are working. I think the best job a women can do is to raise children in the best way and look after her family at least until children are not capable of doing things by themselves. That’s why I didn’t regret giving up my career for their sake I think no woman should.

Ol Lady Luck
My family and I have a black Chinese pug named “Ol Lady Luck”, or “Lady” for short. She is 8 years old, born on Halloween 2001. She was our first child. We got her the year before our first human child was born. She went everywhere with us. When we would go through a drive-through to get food, lady would get a burger without condiments. She loved to run around the dining room table as I chased her with a broom. She loves squeaky toys and used to howl if you continuously squeaked the toy. She hates to wear fancy dog clothes of any kind, so we do not dress her. She is very sweet and loyal. She is wonderful with the children. They can hug her, squeeze her, rub all over her and she never tried to bite them. She has become over-weight over the years and she has slowed down a lot. She is blind in her left eye which was the result of some kind of injury. She is also very hard of hearing. She has arthritis in one shoulder and paw. But with all of this, we still love her anyway. She is such a sweet girl and has become such a huge part of our family.
