I know..I'm Bad...

So I've been repeatedly told that I'm a bad blogger. I can not argue with that. I have been. My blog title has finally lived up to its name. Where the heck is Carmen?!? I am going to try to change my ways and start doing something that I have not done enough of...blog and post some pics.

So I've been super busy at work. Nothing exciting, just busy. This company, what should remain unnamed is a really good company. Unfortunately, like all big companies, they find some way to screw you over...it happened to me not too long ago and so let the 60 hr work weeks begin.

Luckily I am married to the most wonderful husband in the world (who refuses to have his picture posted ever). With my first year as newlywed wife draws to a close, I must say I think I have failed and my hubby totally outdid me. I became that crazy driven career woman that I thought I would never become. My hubby has stepped up in every way possible and I could not be any luckier. He's been doing all the things that your stereotypical Joan Clever housewife does because I am being slavedriven at work. He doesn't complain, because he knows that I go through enough at work. I am so eager to get home to be greeted with a smile, hug, kisses and a yummy dinner ready for the both of us. I really think back on my life and wonder what I have done to deserve to have such a wonderful man in my life. I know at this point you are either aww-ing or nauseous from my rambling about my husband, but I don't care. I am sharing this because despite the hardships that I have endured in my life and the crap that I deal with every day at work, I know that I am lucky to be alive and surrounded by such wonderful and supportive people. I only hope that you have at least one person that you can feel so blessed to have in your life.

This past week has been rough trying to balance the pressures of having a good career, being a good wife, being a good friend, being a good daughter, and being a good sister. But in the past week, I have been brought to the realization that the career is nothing to me if I can not enjoy it with my husband, friends, and family. I just wanted the time to say that I love you all. Thanks for hanging in there and putting up with me and being there for me. I promise to be a better friend and not be as MIA.

Now it's time for me to go to bed, right Tyler?
