It's Almost Over...

School, that is. I just finished this week's coursework and all I have next week is one chapter to read and 4 assignments (3 that actually integrate into one large final assignment and my final blogpost on my social media metrics blog I started for school). Then, I have the summer off, which I needed to take, lest I lose what's remaining of my sanity :)

This week started my new contract so, after today, I'll have put in over 30 hours, which is better than I've done in a long time. The work is varied and sometimes tedious but I'm so happy to be working again (particularly in marketing and ecommerce!) that it doesn't matter. Tommorow, I'll be able to devote time to my third contract, which will take a few hours I didn't have for it during the week. Then, I'll be as caught up as I can be until Monday.

The delay for the new apartment is still going on, but I'm OK with that because it buys me some time to find a place better suited to my family's needs. If it comes down to it, I'll take the one in my building to be able to provide my niece her own room (even at the expense of my having a dedicated office space b/c the place is laid out different than my current apartment). However, I will move again if I find something better, even though it will mean adding to my expenses (it's an acceptable trade-off at this point). Needless to say, I'm hoping something else presents itself to avoid the extra work of moving twice. So far, two good prospects have slipped through my fingers, so I'm hoping the third time's the charm.

Here's to an awesome and productive (without being exhausting) weekend!

  2. You've been making such great progress and you're so hardworking you deserve a holiday! I know moving can be such a chore...I hope your family and friends will help you out!
    How's your health these days? Are you still sticking to your glutenfree diet? Take care my friend. Have a wonderful weekend,

  3. Raven, thanks for the well wishes. We did move and it's been both good and bad (better neighborhood but so-so home).

    Duni, thanks! Moving was a chore but not being able to relax into the house was worse (we decided not to fully unpack, so there's some clutter...). I haven't been sticking to the gluten-free diet at all but my symptoms are pointing to other issues, so I'm looking into forcing the issue on getting my crohn's disease test results back.

    Welcome to my madness, noteshacker! I'm glad you enjoy my blog and find the info useful.
