Some big things happened recently.
First off, Jeff and I made a trip to the Social Security office on Friday where I officially became Mrs. Tucker!
I am a serious procrastinator about everything. It has been over five months since we got married and I just now got around to changing my name. I can tell it makes him really happy, so that makes me really happy too.
Also…I quit my job.
This has been a long time coming. I have worked in the same industry, which I thought would just be an interesting summer job until I could find something else, for over 6 years now. It is long past time to move on, I just haven’t been sure what to move on to.
At this moment, I don’t make a single cent from writing this blog. I spend a good deal of time writing it though, and plan to devote even more effort into it now that I’ll be at home, so I feel that it’s fair to start making some modest income for my efforts.
I don’t know what fruit this blog will produce in the future. I certainly don’t expect to just get opportunities handed to me, but now that I have the time, I’m gonna put in the work and see what happens. If I never make more than a few cents off this blog, that’s ok too, and I’ll continue to write it because I enjoy it.
That’s all the major changes for now. Onward and forward!
Good luck with everything!
I haven’t changed my name either. It’s been 4 months. Was the SS office a pain? Did you have to wait a long time.
We were there about 20 minutes, I don’t know why I waited so long cuz it was no big deal.
I like both of these things
Aww, congrats on the name change! I feel you on the procrastination; it took me over a year after graduating to get back to my college town of Lawrence (KU) to pick up my diploma…because I refused to pay the $25 they would have charged to mail it! Haha.
And CONGRATULATIONS on quitting your job! I happen to know EXACTLY how that feels, as of last week 😀 In fact, today was my first REAL day “off work.” It’s kind of weird. Productivity is key! I have so little time before I leave for school…but anyway, my job was a dead end too; when I started, I thought I’d be there for 3 months, tops…which turned into 4 years ::sigh:: But whatever! It’s all behind us now Onward!
