Posted by djuggler in : Daily Life , add a comment* Hind quarters getting sore. Have now applied online to one job possibility and signed up with another recruiter. A good friend helped search out several others and has inspired me to barage people with resumes and cover letters at a rapid pace. Must break for coffee and maybe a brief bit of reading. I am disappointed that I did not get marketing materials out today. I’m detecting a pattern since I’ve been trying to get these into the right hands since before Christmas–fear? procrastination? ambivalence? decision through lack of decision?

Posted by djuggler in : Daily Life , add a comment* Sent 3 marketing emails to other web developers in the area - hopefully this will at least help get my name out a bit
* Did some brain stimulation by helping to solve someone else’s problem online - no avail - tis still broke
* Update domain information and set up 2 more domains with my host and setup email so that I could send marketing email with the correct viral marketing. Tis silly to ask your competitors to use you as a sub when your website says you compete with them.

I love my time with my kids. Getting ready for bedtime is the best with baby in lap reading stories to each other. First I read to her, then she reads to me. I need more such quality time with the older ones. The 10 year old is grousing over an unfinished long term project. I fear we are reinforcing her procrastination. Must work on that. The 13 year old is in the bath going on 1.5 hours now. And the 7 year old is lying in bed reading (and sneaking play time with the Playmobile). He’s an angel!

Posted by djuggler in : Daily Life , add a comment* MBNA Collectors called. Asked for $100 some odd then reduced it to $53 when I said “no can do”. Then when I said “nothing to give” they also jumped on the “can’t you borrow it from someone” bandwagon. Due date Jan 8.
* kids fed - time flying - not having fun
The next 1.5 hours will be spent getting the kids to bed. No work will get done.

Posted by djuggler in : Daily Life , add a commentA New Day!
Had some very nice closing remarks for last night but lost them due to scheduled maintenance–sorta my luck. Basically I calmed and remembered the ever logical words of a friend of mine regarding creditors “they can’t eat you.” We will pull through this somehow.
Let’s start the day off with a PayPal donation link:
Time to get the kids ready for school.
