Are you feeling like it’s ground hog day since my post this morning was almost identical in title? I would like to say that I’ve been busy marketing myself and applying for work, but really the opposite is true. I’ve been really busy working hard for my existing customer and bolstering those relationships. And as a result…I got another local referral for a small business website.
I met with them last week, submitted my quote today for a larger website project and with the possibility of an ongoing maintenance relationship. I have a good feeling about it.
So keep your fingers crossed for me!
Update: In between writing this post and it posting…I got the job. Picked up the deposit check yesterday and started on the work today. Love, love!

Holy smokes, Hope! I can’t wait to see your debt updates over the next couple of months. The end of your consumer debt is definitely in sight! In fact, might the mini-vacation to the Great Wolf Lodge partially be a celebration trip for your payoffs? I can’t remember the timing, but I think it would be a great thing to aim for.
Great news!
Congrats!
Great!
