May you live in interesting times

Last Update: March 17, 2011

I'm trying to decide how to proceed.

My finances have reached a critical point. I'm running on fumes.
I have a lot of things working in the IM realm but nothing seems to be bearing fruit.  Lots of flowers but the bees are missing.

So, I made the decision to put some resumes out. I would love to keep doing IM full time but it looks like I need to take a breather from full time and get a paycheck until things start hopping.

Well, got a call from a headhunter and have an interview on Monday.
Saw another place (where I did a contract years ago) looking so I sent one over there too.
Then of all things got a probable Local SEO client call too.

So all of the sudden I'm up to my neck in alligators.

About 1/2 way through this interesting day got a call from the head trainer at our dog school.  Seems her daughter is going in for a C-section.
The # 2 trainer is in Idaho so, can I teach class.....

Ummmm....the class from hell, that class!
And... since we are having our first day around 50 degrees (10 C) the dogs are having a bit of spring fever.

I made it through both classes with only one minor problem.  The Shepherds behaved themselves and didn't eat the Bichon.
4 of 6 of the puppies did well only the two Golden Ret were out of control, but that was to be expected.
Actually, it was kinda fun.  Guess I know what I'm doing after all.

Bottom line is if you don't see me here as much it's cause life is getting in the way.  I'm still at it and will stop in as much as I can.

Or maybe I'll have a great weekend, my site will take off and I'll be a full time IMer.

There's an old Chinese curse.  May you live in interesting times.  I think today qualifies.

It's all one thing Craig: bringin' home the bacon. I'm sure what you do will be very interesting, and you'll have many plates spinning at once. IM is taking me more time than I originally opted for and away from my big love which is painting. I'm trying to integrate things too and will be spending less time here unfortunately. Only so many hours in a day. What can you do? Your occasional presence will be all the more appreciated. All the best in your search.
