Life
After all that rushing about of course I started the week sick! But other than that – mostly working. Spent some time with my mom and my sister. Booked a trip to Croatia at the end of the month with one of my friends, which I’m excited about!
First week of not blogging. I thought it would be weird, but it hasn’t been. Really just had too much on to notice. Every so I either find it weird or am glad that I don’t have to do that as well as everything else.
Work
OK. Bit stressful. Lot on right now. Finally starting to see progress though, which is good!
Paid myself for the first time since starting this whole adventure! Which was pretty exciting. Also got on top of a bunch of stuff that I hadn’t been dealing with when I was out of the country.
Excited because I’ll be speaking at The Lead Developer in London in September!
