Topic awaiting preservation: Overwhelmed (Page 1 of 1)

Hey, all.

I just wanted to let everyone know that things are crazy for me right now. I bring this up to explain why there's been further stall in development of THE BOX and to apologize for the handful of JavaScript and PHP topics I've started that I never followed up on.

I get a short break and I start trying to catch up on all the little things on my sites and start asking questions, then things get busy again and I can't seem to get back to those threads. It's rude and I should apologize.

And lately, things have gotten even more nuts. I've got the full-time hours I'm putting in at the station, plus some freelance design I'm trying to finish, while desperately trying to compile tons of info to keep a publisher interested in my book idea. I've got two other possible design jobs lined up that I don't have time to get to ... oh yes, and there's that pesky 4 hours of sleep I have to fit in somewhere.

Sounds good to be busy, but none of it's bringing in the money I need right now, perpetuating my bad financial situation. In fact, I'm putting aside good money to work on book research that most likely won't get me any further with this publisher.

The stress and the loneliness is really starting to weigh on my spirit and I'm really not having any fun anymore. And nobody's around to take my mind off it. I feel like my head's going under and I'm struggling just to grab a few bubbles with the mouthfuls of water. But, hey, the salt's good for my throat. Oh, look, a fish.

Anyhow, my real point is, again, to apologize for not following up on all the topics I started. I'll try not to start any more ... just make the usual wise-ass comments in those everybody else starts.

Okay, got to get 15 minutes of research done before I go to bed.

Good to see you still have your sense of humour Wes.
Sometimes in life it's like, one of those guys you get in a circus who balances spinning plates on top of tall thin poles, going round and round keeping each plate spinning so they don't fall off. Personally, I got to like the sound of plates breaking in my life.
Hang on in there buddy and don't forget, These Are The Good Old Days!!

hang in there bud. Sounds like you are doing well so far, just gettng a bit overwhelmed. Do you think more hours of sleep would help? Atleast 6 hours. Working the kind of schedule you are with little sleep can stress anybody out. Also, can you choose one thing in the equation to hold off on? Like maybe put off the freelance web design and concentrate on the full time job and research for the book. Just an idea. But you did mention you needed the $. Sounds like you are meeting the demands of your life, you just need some rassurance to keep up the high level of performance.

Hang in there, Wes!!! I have been pretty swamped with other things lately myself and I'm feeling terrible that I haven't been able to hang out here as much as usual. It happens.

How does the quaint phrase go? Ah yes... we'll leave a light on for ya
