fusedlogic & Twitter support

It has been an insanely busy week so far. You ever have those weeks where you have barely any time to get the things done you need to get done? THAT has been my week.

In between my meetings, shopping around for someone to install hardwood flooring and evening events, I managed to squeeze a bit of work in.

I recently started doing some work with fusedlogic. I posted to Walter’s blog this morning about DemoCamp 4. Edmonton’s got a vibrant tech community and it was a great event last night. I am looking forward to more of these events.

Tonight I have the Tweetup to attend after a couple meetings out in Sherwood Park this morning. I have wanted to get my article out on getting press releases picked up by the media. This week I’ve felt like the mechanic with the broken down car. My stuff gets worked on last!

Twitter support

While working from home is nice to be able to do, I also like to get out of the house to meet and talk with people. It really energizes me. That is one thing that makes me really happy about being in Edmonton because there are so many events going on here.

Energizing is something I’ve needed lately. I’ve been laid off for a month now and have received less than half of what I’m owed from my previous job and no sign of my record of employment. The stress of dealing with this situation, the financial worries, not to mention the absurdity of the situation, tend to sap my energy sometimes. It can be hard to move on when you’re still dealing with issues from past situations. I am hoping this situation is resolved soon.

My friends on Facebook, Twitter and elsewhere have also helped to keep me going with their support. That was an aspect of Twitter that I hadn’t really thought of before, until I was laid off. It has certainly been a very valuable one to me lately. On that note, I am more than willing to offer that same support to my friends everywhere, whether it’s Twitter, Facebook or elsewhere.
