Good news, Scary news. Back in School. Stressed and Worried.

I love my job. I actually do get paid quite well when I work. Right now the economy is so tough I haven’t made hardly any money this year. It seems as though every client I get cancells, flakes, stops paying on his or her invoice, or wants a refund to try and get something for nothing. I have really gotten discouraged recently. I hope school helps. It seems I am either flooded with work all at once or I have nothing to do at all. It is all pretty scary. I hope to be able to work for a firm for a while when I am out of school so that I can have a job where I don’t have to bring it home, I can work and come home and simply be home. Ya know? I would also love to be able to support my family and do for my husband what he did for me for so many years, while he made the money and let me live my dream. I would love to pay it forward. I would love to be able to work side by side with my husband in his business.

But…All in all, I really do love what I do. I can make upwards of $2500 dollars for one web site and/ or my hourly rate of $50 per hour. My average web site/ graphic design job is between $750 and $1200.

As far as school goes, I found out 36 of my college credits do transfer to my degree. I am also going to a school where the degree offering I am going for is brand new. It looks like due to the circumstances I will be in the first graduating class from DeVry with my Bachelor’s in Multimedia Design and Development and will finish 6-8 months before the first graduating class which will make me the first IN HISTORY to finish with this degree, which to me is huge and even more of a driving factor for me to finish what I am doing and be excited for it. This means graduation in 2 years or less!!!!

That is something to look forward to Right?
