In a nutshell…

It’s been a while since I was able to really sit down and think about an entry to post here. Unfortunately there isn’t a lot going on in my life that’s really “news worthy”.

I guess it’d be easier to go in “list mode”.

  • New Template – I haven’t sat down and worked on anything personal since April. Luckily I came across a similar template and was instantly inspired, so here it is.
  • College Woe’s – My FAFSA is completed, I’ve been working with Admissions at the University of Phoenix and I hope to be enrolled very soon.
  • Work – I’ve had a steady flow of work for the past couple of weeks, it’s brought in enough money where I can insure that everyone’s birthday is taken care of. Dad’s turning 60, Mo is going to be 22, and Karen recently had her birthday as well. So it’s safe to say that come July 1st, I’ll be officially tapped out. I’m still working from home. Recent interviews have proven to be a waste of my time. I’ve submitted my application to god knows how many companies and when I do get call backs they’ll look at my portfolio, say I’m great, and then go with someone who has a Bachelors in something completely different. How come 10 years of experience in internet/media for a web design position is trumped by someone with a bachelors in science? :: confused ::
  • Canceled Plans – Sean and I decided to cancel our plans for our anniversary. Money is tight and even though everything is complimentary (room, food) we can’t afford to go up to Atlantic City. So I think we’re going to head down to Ocean City and have dinner then relax on the boardwalk. It’s not the most extravagant of plans but we’re living within our means.
  • Moving – I’m in the process of moving to a new data center. I was able to get half of the accounts moved over and now I’m patiently waiting on the other half. I absolutely loathe the company I was previously with and while I adore Tony as a person, and a hard worker, the company who’s filling out his paychecks is run by a bunch of useless fucks. So this move should void all of the downtime issues, run-time issues, and that stupid “page cannot be displayed” issue connected with WordPress installations that was written off as “Natural”. It’s not natural, your fucking data center can’t handle a simple freaking script! ::end rant::

So yea, that’s the last month in a nut-shell. Boring eh?

    Yay, you’re finally back. It seemedlike I waschecking here forever and you weren’t. But you know, that could have just been many timesin one day for all I know. I tend to be quite forgetful lately.

    I love the new template – as always. Yours never have too much going on and they are always easy on the eyes & to get around!

    Hope you get admission into the school you want!

    The idea of a quiet meal and relaxing on the boardwalk sounds great – but is non stop rain here in Ireland at the moment so none of that out door stuff today. All the best.

    I think that it’s good that you are going to the University of Phoenix; there are some haters out there who are down on online schools, but it’s the present and future way to learn. I went to a traditional school for my master’s degree but took several courses and some class sessions online. I know that money is tight, but I wish that I could work at home full-time.

    I personally do not know you but found your post bit sticky so read it whole, amazing! I don’t know either I’ll be back to your blog or not but if I stop by then will surely read your posts.

  12. Don’t get me started on hosting companies, I’ve had my fair share of problems recently, all of which are directly from the companies poor service.

    Nice look to the blog though, I like the template.

  13. UptakeInOH says:

    Krissy, how much longer until you’ve earned your degree? That, coupled with your experience, should finally pay off big for you. I’m in grad school right now, and let me tell you…it seems like the road is too long. And I don’t know why I just advised you that it will all pay off, as I am personally tired of hearing about how “it will all be worth it.” Ack. I want a steady income and stability NOW, dammit! 😉

    That definitely wasn’t a boring month. I like the new template, it’s clean and very attractive. Good luck with college. I have heard good things about University of Phoenix. Have fun at Ocean City. I just got back and the water was perfect.

    That sucks that you didn’t get to go up to Atlantic City for your anniversary, but as long as you had a good time it doesn’t matter where you go or how much you spend as long as it’s time spent with the one you love.

  16. Hey, Congratulations for completing FAFSA. Well, felt bad on reading about cancellation of your and Sean’s plans. Anyways, plan to go some other time. I recently went to Italy for a vacation.
    Believe me its a wonderful country. Its so beautiful!! Especially, the accommodation was very comfortable. I stayed in a villa while I was in Sicily, Tuscany and Pisa. I also saw some other cities like Florence, San Gimignano, Chianti and Umbria.

    All the best for your future endeavours and enjoyed reading your blog. I am looking forward to other posts by you.
