My Blog
This blog has been added to my website so that I can let people know about my progress. See my website for details.Entry for December 2, 2007
Things are slowly coming together. I got two full weeks of work with the agencies and I was working 10 hours a day, six days a week. So I got two nice pays in a row. Then my bank (for some reason) decided to give me a $500 overdraft, so that came in handy at just the right time. Also, I have my old contract back as a web developer, because the guy who wasn't paying me properly (and largely caused all this mess), well, his website isn't doing so well and he needs me to do some stuff. Really I should just tell him to get lost, but things aren't so good right now so I have accepted. I said you need to send me $600 before I even start -- and he sent the money.
So, things are better now. I am still thousands of dollars behind in various bills, but at least nothing is immanently about to be cut off. I am slowly coming back to life. My Internet is paid, and well, I have an income again.
Since I was working for these agencies, and since the guy who is paying me $600 a week to maintain his website, I figure that I might as well keep doing a bit of work for the agencies. I figure that I can squeeze in a day or two of labor work each week for the agencies and also do the $600 of work required for the web development work. If I keep that up for a few months I'll really be able to get ahead.
At least, I want to get far enough ahead so that if I ever wind up in such a bad situation again I'll have a month or two in savings to fall back on. But this time I was flat broke, behind in EVERY bill, NO income, no point even considering "welfare" and -- well, I literally had one foot in the gutter.
To those of you who put me down and said get a job you loser and well, people that basically couldn't care less about my situation or how I got into it, I just want to say: I HAVE job, I DID try and I only ever asked for help because I was truly flat out of luck. I didn't do anything to deserve my situation -- sometimes things just happen. But I did work very hard to get out of it and I am almost back out of it now. What you going to say now? I will say though that your nasty and hateful comments w ere really unecessary and they did nothing to help. Maybe next time you should shut your face unless you have something intelligent to say?
To those of you that sent some money ($16) in total, I am going to send it back to you as soon as I get a bit more ahead. I do appreciate the help.

Questions Answered As this website has grown from the single page [ see the original ] to an actual website that has a blog, questbook, navigation menu, etc -- I
find that more and more people who see my YouTube channel
are making the same comments over and over. If you have a question or feel that you can offer me some advice,
please see the page where I have logged all advice given as well as the responses to all questions asked. I
hope that this helps my YouTube channel from becoming the same comments and responses over and over again:
Questions Answers and Responses to Advice.
The Story So far: The best way to get the full story on why I created this website and the YouTube Channel would probably be to start from page one of the comments. I have deleted hundreds of nasty comments, and also dozens of repeat comments, as well as repeat questions. So the comments section on my channel is moderated and kept clean: Comments. You can also read the about page. The services page also offers an explanation into how I got to be in the predicament I am in (under web development).
