Job search update

Tomorrow will be 2 months since my last day of work on my last contract job (the one that the company ended early [for financial reasons]). As I mentioned a few days ago, there haven’t been all that many opportunities around the Fargo area … at least not opportunities that have peaked my interest.

Back on track?

I did something tonite that I haven’t done since the end of September of last year. I transferred money into my 2 savings accounts ($200 into each). It felt soooo good.

I was aggressively saving for closing costs so I  […]
