Crispy's Corner

I like to fancy myself as being an “independent woman” in the sense that I pay my own bills, got my own place, working in my chosen career field and don’t mooch off my parents (well not since I graduated from university anyway ).

However, sometimes it can get tiring trying to conquer the world by myself. The pro is that I don’t really have to answer to anybody which makes me feel very free. The con is that sometimes there are just not enough hours in the day to do everything.

Aside from going out on Saturday to the Luminato festival down on Harbourfront, I had people drop by all weekend since I’m now officially everyone’s “downtown connect.” It’s funny, even though I talk a lot and appear to be very social, I do like to spend a lot of “me time” too. I’m not use to entertaining and going out 3 days in a row, especially after I started workng full-time, so by Sunday night I was a bit tired.

Then I had to stay late at my day job today and didn’t come home til almost 8pm. After I ate dinner and did some stuff around the house, it was already 9 o’clock!

Then my damn internet was down so I had to call Rogers to see what was up. Lucky for me it didn’t take long to fix because I knew I had emails waiting for me. I just got another freelance contract to do another site last week so I had to write a bunch of emails to my client to sort some stuff out. Then my other two clients both contacted me today as well to do some updates for them.

I think after I finish with this new client, I’m not going to take any more contracts for a little while. That’s what I said before accepting this contract but when someone contacts me with interest in hiring me, it’s hard to say no!

I don’t know how married people with kids do it. I hardly have time for myself!

Anyway, blah blah blah…. boring ass post, I know, but I just had to get that off my chest.
