Lifes Like That

Well I’m happy to report that after all my computer and Internet problems yesterday, I’m definitely having a better day. I can’t believe the difference in the way my computer is behaving today. Heck I may even be able to finish up my articles on lose weight fast in record time today. I have a lot of computer work to finish today and had my computer acted up like it did yesterday, I really can’t see how I could have done this. So… I’m off to finish up all my projects before anything bad happens to my computer or my Internet connection.

I hope the rest of my day goes better than my morning did! My Internet is acting up and I’m getting a little annoyed with it. Earlier I tried to do a post about clinicallix and my computer wouldn’t let me post a thing. So I went to a different site (or I tried to go to a different site) and my Internet completely froze on me. So… I called support and they did get me up and running. But it was very frustrating there for a while. Hopefully my Internet continues to work and I can get all my work done before it starts acting up once again.

Finally after a complete week of being tied down to my computer doing general transcription work, I was finally able to finish it all last night. What a week! Most days I sat on this computer for at least 12 hours and to tell you all that I’m ready to take a break from my computer is a serious understatement. Seriously folks at this point I think I would even prefer to head down to the gym and get on the treadmills than I would even thinking about doing another transcription file at this point. But I’m done! And as soon as I e-mail my work to the company, this computer is being shut down!

Yeah, I know it’s only Thursday, but earlier this afternoon I got a pile of work sent to me that I need to have completed over the weekend. Thank god I don’t have to work weekends at my outside job any more. If I had to I would NEVER get all this work done. I have eight files due for my general transcription job, I just received word that I’m going to have to have five articles written for my writing job (hopefully it’s not on herbal colon cleanse or I will be spending a lot of time on research), and I would really like to be able to do some blog posts over the weekend. Oh well, I’m not complaining. After all it is work which means it is money.

Earlier in the week I took a transcription test and was just informed that I did not pass it. This bummed me out quite a bit. I know I haven’t been doing this type of work for very long, so not passing it shouldn’t have come as a big surprise to me. But I hate to fail anything and I did just that. So I guess I will continue to practice and just chalk this one up to one of life’s learning experiences. I just wish I didn’t feel so crappy about it.

Well it’s official. I have been a blogger now for about three years. Wow, I really can’t believe where all the time has gone. I have learned so much over the past three years that I’m quite proud of myself. I now know everything about HTML and how to insert links such as Eagle Creek luggage. I have learned how to set up word-press blogs and how to upload images and other stuff. Three years ago I could barely turn on my computer, so I really do think I’ve come a long way. Certainly I have a long way to go yet, but I’m pretty sure over the next three years I will learn just as much as in the previous years. Isn’t the Internet amazing???

For every holiday or event, there is a perfect invitations. But with some many sites on the Internet that sell these invitations, choosing the perfect one can be a little overwhelming. This is why I wanted to tell you all about a site I just discovered. It can be found over at www.express-invitations.com. They sell all types of Christmas Holiday Invitations, Mardi Gras party invitations, Halloween invitations and any other invitations holidays that you may be looking for. So the next time your in the market for Holiday Christmas Invitations why not check out this site. It could be just the answer your looking for.

For the past couple of weeks, my online work has dwindled quite a bit. But it looks like things are starting to pick up again. On Wednesday I received and e-mail from a company that I sometimes write articles for asking me if I would be interested in doing a pretty big job for them. Of course I said yes, and got started on these articles as soon as I could. Then yesterday, one of my transcription clients contacted me with some work they wanted me to do for them. As this is the type of work I really want to do, I said yes to them as well. So for a couple of weeks, I really didn’t have very much work to do and now in two days, I have more than I could have imagined. So, like I said, it’s either feast or famine.

On one of my other blogs, I tend to do a lot of product reviews. I have been approached by one of our local grocery stores to participate in these reviews. Although I don’t get any cash for these reviews, I have gotten a lot of cool products to test out and to keep. Even though these products are free, I still do an honest review on the product. If I don’t care for it, I will tell my readers about it. A couple of weeks ago I was asked to do a slimming pills review but I had to turn it down as I have no real need for this type of product. I am slim enough and if I started taking these pills, I might slim down to nothing. So there is a limit to what I will review as well. If I have no need for the product, or am not interested in the product, I won’t do the review. But, I do really enjoy doing these reviews and have gotten to keep a lot of cool products.

So as you can see, I really haven’t been posting that much lately. This is because I have been working a lot outside of the home lately and also because I have been slowly building up a home transcription career. So far I have one private client and have been accepted to work for a company as well. Then last night I received an invitation to test for another company as well. So, I have been working pretty steadily doing transcription. It seems like (for now) I really don’t have the time to be able to manage both transcription and blogging. But, I’m hoping that when I finally find my correct groove, I will be able to manage both. So, bare with me, I do plan on posting more. It’s just taking me a little longer to find my way than I had originally thought it would.
