2009 In Review:
2009 has been a strange ride. I started the year out working at O'ccurance, a job that I probably should have never had (sales), but most importantly I made a couple good friends and experience a some growth. Shortly after leaving there, I got an amazing position as a warehouse manager for a company called Crush Direct Response, or as it is currently known as Hyper Interactive Media or iHyper. I was on salary, had benefits and the job was just packaging getting things packaged up and going out. I was in charge of about 10 people or so. As for everything great, is was short lived
it did not last long. Eventually, the crew was cut down to 2 employees and myself. One Friday, at the end of the day... I was let go. I was able to get on unemployment though, a first for me. I have been employed for the most part since i was 16.
Also in 2009, my "Nana" (my Dad's mother) died. She has been very sick for quite a while with dementia. The last time I spoke with her was in 2004, when Sarah and I were on vacation and we were wanting to see here. Let's just say, the phone call was an experience. She left us an inheritance. With this inheritance, we remodeled our side of the duplex and had the roof redone (link coming soon).
We also purchased a car, paying it in full. It is very nice having both of our cars paid off.
During all this time I have also been attending school for Graphic Design at Eagle Gate College working towards my Associates, which I finish in Janury 2010. I am so excited to do this for a living!!!
Over the past months, I have been directing myself to get my freelance business going. I currently have a few clients that I am working with and am eager to get more.
Please stay tuned to find out what we happened to do tonight... Happy New Year!!!
