Job Options…

Well you know how it goes, you goto a wedding and you meet people, at first I thought the only people I would talk to were a older couple I walked in at the same time as, but then I saw a former Awaken Model and said hello to her, saw 2 other folks I knew from High School, but the one kept avoiding eye contact, so I left him be, the other was part of the wedding, so she had a bit more on her mind.

But the reception is where I got to sit down with the wedding photographer and chit-chat shop a little, talk about weddings and such, and just have a nice conversation, and we got talking about a website for her, and she had some fun ideas which I think I can put together! So part of my plan this week is to see what I can do in some mock-ups with things (already have an idea in mind) but this sort of job can be ‘affordable’ but not cheap as the words “photography” & “easy to update” & just a dash of “no one else said it’d be easy” - its do-able, some tweakage, and some custom programming to make things work on the “easy to update” field, but the display of things seems fairly easy in my mind.

Which brings me to job options, server stuff, has me a tad burnt. Don’t get me a wrong, it’s my job, and I have some good bits of hardware and software - but the stress in that avenue has gotten to me over the years - now granted it has it’s upside (major boost to prayer life) :) - but especially with trying to have a full personal life, the servers bit can put a damper on a night out - sucks to say “Hey guys, I have to go.” and the night just got started, but I have good friends - and they understand (or at least seem to) - but I am thinking of pushing on the devel end of things a bit more, working on programming code, so I can say go sit at Starbucks and code for a few hours a day, and then level out the rest with photography on weekends and such.

I dunno, but I’d appreciate prayers on the matter - this year has already been the jump in sales, and such I expected it to be, but I’d love to travel and such, but without a full-time staff, then thats a tuff one, but prayers are appreciated, I may just be over-think and just tired in general, but sometimes I wonder what else I can do to move forward on other areas of my life a bit - but such is my evening getting my brain clear, and I think I am going to go find something to eat now that it has cooled down a bit, or maybe crash out while the crashing is good. Night All. Have a Good Monday.
