Harder Than It Should Be…

I’m really beginning to see why people always so you should never work with family and friends. Or maybe they say you should never loan money to family and friends? I don’t know the exact saying, but I do know you should never mix business and family. Just ask commercial litigation lawyer Raleigh NC!! But I’ve learned that the hard way just by building websites with my mom and best friend. It’s hard working with people who don’t understand a lot about web design.

My best friend has these completely ridiculous expectations. He wants these to blink and light up and run across the screen, but he wants all that down with simple HTML and PHP! Yeah, right! And my mom is so overly sensitive about everything. She looks like she wants to cry at every turn. LOL. I don’t think I’ll ever want to do web design as a career.

Little Miss Active

My little cousin came over on Wednesday — as she does every week — and we had a pretty good time. It’s weird because as she gets older she’s so much easier to deal with in one way, yet harder to deal with in another. For instance, she’s becoming more independent and doesn’t cry as much, so it’s less stressful. But on the other hand, since she’s becoming so independent I’m constantly running after her. That’s not hard, but it’s definitely stressful when I’m tired or sick.

She’s so active. She’s the reason that they created yard gates and fence pools. She gets into everything! Even though I’m so tired by the time she goes home, I wouldn’t trade my Wednesdays with her for anything. She’s the coolest kid. And I know as she gets older it will get easier. I’ll have to keep her busy with books, art and stuff like that. I don’t want her to have an idle mind!

There’s Nothing Available…

Things at my job have been really tense lately. It seems like there isn’t enough work to go around or something. So many people have already quit or started looking for other jobs. The people like me who still work there are barely getting enough work to earn a decent living. Things are really looking bleak. It’s amazing how quickly things can go from good to bad. Just a few months ago I was putting in a lot of hours, now I’m lucky if I get “part-time” hours.

I’ve looked around for other jobs, but it seems as if no one is hiring. I was surprised to see that there are Software Engineer Jobs available online. I wish I knew something about that line of work because I would jump right on that. I hope things will get better soon. Not just for me, but for everyone who’s going through this right now.

My Favorite Flowers

When I was with my ex-boyfriend I used to be obsessed with a certain flower because it was his nickname for me. Now that we’ve broken up (not recently) I’m starting to dislike that type of flower. It’s sad because they are so beautiful! Now I’m really obsessed with cherry blossoms and tulips. I love them both for different reasons. I think tulips are more romantic though. I see way more Valentine tulips than cherry blossoms. Tulips remind me so much of roses in a way.

It’s funny because as much as I love both types of flowers I’ve never actually seen either in real life, just online in photos. If someone were to give me flowers for a special occasion like my birthday or Valentine’s Day, I would definitely love both. Maybe my future boyfriend will give me tulips and cherry blossoms! Just as long as he doesn’t nickname me either! I don’t want to grow to dislike them too.
