And now re-emerging from the outside world of spinning craziness
Here is an update for anyone who is reading this at this point.
In the past year and a half I have been holding numerous jobs. Two of which were"permanent" positions. One I am currently in and am happy in. I don't know many who can say that about their jobs. But I am happy where I am right now. It suits my life style and gives me the flexibility that I need. My compensation is not extremely high, but I am not suffering. I am comfortable at the moment.
Oh, taxes. I sent them in. Trying to match up all those W-2 forms. When you work for number of companies in one year they all have to send you something. It is not fun. But then again, hey, what should I expect if I do my own taxes, eh?
Well, the "storms" of my last post came and went. I missed that round. I got out before the next round and moved to another company. That did not go so well, and I ended up back at the other company at a much higher rate of pay. Which was nice. But 6 weeks later they nearly closed the department in this country. So guess who was one that was let go this time... yep. I roamed around looking for more work anywhere. And the nice little recession they had going on here wasn't helping. It took me nearly 6 months to find work. So if I wasn't out here now you know why. All this was happening and I was in school. Oh and last February, we had another kid. So, I wasn't really all that busy, nor did I have my hands full. Oh, wait I did..
hmmm.
Ok then. Perhaps things will go better in this next year or so... I hope. I'm supposed to graduate soon. (not this year).
