a new beginning :: lrs web solutions blog

me, age 6.  could my hat be any bigger?


a couple months ago, i went thru a bit of postpartum depression and my major sadness was each day as i walked into my office.  i missed my children and i wasn't finding inspiration and excitement in my work.  i went on a lot of walks thru-out the days and complained a lot to friends.  then one night, my cousin and i sat down for a glass of wine and talked it out.  she helped me get over the complaining and i starting thinking about a solution...  

i began by asking myself what i enjoy in my hobbies (photography & blogging) and how i can incorporate that into a web programming position.  after i came up with my plan, i set up a meeting with my boss and he was delighted to accommodate my new ideas.  i am very fortunate to be in a position where i have an encouraging team of people that actually hear my voice. 

one of my goals was reached last week when our web solutions blog went live.  we already had facebook, twitter, and everything else under the sun.  now we have a blog and i will be the project manager and main contributor.  i welcome you to follow me both here and there, as i know there will be lots of interesting information and possibly a few jokes.

side note: the picture above was featured in my latest post for the web solutions group.  i love the idea of sharing awkward photos to lighten things up a bit.  who says business has to be so stuffy?

  1. Great photo. I don't recall you having a gap between your front teeth before your braces... maybe it was just less noticeable compared to mine. This confirms Addie's ability to drink through a straw while clinching her teeth is clearly inherited.
