You changed it... now use it.

I have changed my name to take my husband's last name. It was something that i wasn't sure i wanted to do, but i felt it would make our commitment for serious.

Now that all of my documents are changed, which was the easy part, now comes the using the last name part, which can be difficult.

For the open house for our company i had to print out new business cards, because the information for my office changed. I worked very hard at making the logo for the company fit, the numbers to be the right size, to have the right font, the right colors. It looked perfect, and i printed out 25, which will last me a good 2 -5 months.

At the open house a newspaper reported comes up to me, for an interview. She introduces herself, and tells me where she is from. Then she asked me for my name, i said my first name and my married name, and i had her a card. Whose card is this? then it hits me, i made my business cards with my maiden name!! crap !

I will try my best at getting it right, but i can't promise anything.
