I’ve only been up for an hour and it’s looking to be a pretty stressful day. For the past couple of days I’ve been working on quite a few different websites. I did a PSD to WordPress convert for Jackie. I’m currently working on another WordPress convert for a client I picked up on GAF and on top of that I had to redo a few things for a template I completed last week for my new “boss” so to speak. Tomorrow I’m taking on another template and while it’s constant work it’s also a constant headache.
The landscapers woke me up today, but that’s fine because for me sleeping until 10 means that I’ve overslept and I needed to be jolted out of bed anyway. The reason behind the jolt is Bella, naturally. If someone is under the window she’ll typically bark her head off and slap a big machine under them and that’s grounds for all kinds of barks and growls on her end. Knowing that Sean worked all night and didn’t actually get to sleep until about 5:30 this morning, I made it a point to get her out of there as fast as possible. Now she’s hanging out with me in the office, she’s got her window seat and some fresh food on the floor and that’s about all she needs.
Another reason for the down-day isn’t going to be the predicted 70* weather, it’s the email I received from my mother.
Living four hours away from friends and family has been difficult for me, and while I love Sean and do like Delaware – It’s taking me a lot longer to getting used to not having so many people around. I come from a big family, and the only time it really feels “homey” is when Karen’s sister comes down with her kids because there’s more noise in the house and it feels more like what my life was like in New York.
I really miss everyone, my grandparents, aunts and uncles and I truly have no idea what’s going on with any of my cousins, even the two out of five that I’d stand the chance of seeing. My one aunt doesn’t get out to visit very often and the other one just held a Christening for her son, and I saw the pictures he’s absolutely adorable. He looks a lot like my aunt, and has this tiny button nose and looked so cute in his little white suit with gold chain, definitely an Italian child, I’ll tell you that much.
It kind of just hit me today that I’ve missed out on a lot of things. Hell, I even miss my sister sometimes and when I lived up there I absolutely could not stand her. But, considering our situation we did get along well – we were just frustrated with each other the way that siblings typically are.
Another irk of the day is the fact that I can’t find my USB cable for my digital camera. I took some nice pictures this morning to put up on my health blog. I guess something will appear after I go through a few boxes.
I need to get my butt in gear and finish this template. I’m hoping to be able to start something for this site sometime today but that really isn’t too important at the moment, work comes first.
You don’t need stress babe! it’s not good for ya. I learnt that you need to write everything down in lists, that way your brain instantly relaxes because it knows it doesn’t have to remember that stuff anymore 🙂 kind of makes sense… lol
It would be hard to live away from family.. I’m a bit worried about when I leave for the UK, I’ll be gone for 1-5 years.. no idea how long?! (will still be blogging of course). But will be ages away from family. It’ll be tough. I think I’d miss my sisters the most.
Good luck finding ya USB cable! Losing stuff is so frustrating.. lol

Hang in there. some days are just tougher than others.
Hey Krissy! Remember me? 😀 Long time no talk, huh? I finally got myself a new computer, so I thought I’d drop by to see what you were up to.
Awesome to talk to you again. 😀 <3
PS – What ever happened to the Euphoric MB?
Oops, its not good to get stressed as it is not good for health. You need to list out your things so that it won’t be any burden on your brain. In this way brain can get relaxation.
Hang in there! I don’t know how you do it. I considered doing blogging on a regular basis one time and found I just didn’t have the time.
Sorry about all the stress! Things will get better! : ] Keep your head up and give it a little time!

Do not be upset. Cause the profession of IT is like this. You will not get time for your family and relatives. That’s why do not think that your family is unhappy with you. You should understand them about your work (if they do not know about your work) Then you will see that they will not mind and upset with you. Cause you enjoy this work and earn money. So, pls do not be dis hearted. Keep your work good. I wish that you will get some time for your family and relatives. Anyway, Thanks for your post!

Photo – My living in Delaware has nothing to do with my job, it has to do with my relationship. I know they aren’t unhappy with me, I just miss everything about New York, that’s all.
Sometimes such a period comes when the work load increases and nothing goes according to us. This period leads to a lot of irritation and depresses the person.
how did you look when u first read it? (; btw, I agree completely 😉
