Frustrated
I started this whole thing from my cell phone. I don't currently have computer access (that will change with future success), but it has limited me which is slightly aggravating. Memory space is being a real jerk when it comes to starting the pinup site, I will have up and going by the end of June. It will not come without some choice language and threats to throw my phone at the wall though.
On a positive note I have discovered a working schedule for myself and the children's summer schedules. The only thing I haven't worked out yet was the big camping adventure we are planning. I have talked myself through the anxiety of waking away from this new passion for a few days.....
Anyhow, thank you so much for reading this it's mostly just public venting. Lol

Glad you are working through it. However, just wondering if you have a library you could go to or a friend's computer you can borrow? They dont cost you anything and you could get more done than on a cell phone.
The library is an option on activity days. And during the year when kids are in school it will be easier. Right now I'll most definitely keep my focus on the accomplishments I can manage
I am so sorry to hear of your frustration! all I can say is I admire you for moving forward despite the "bumps" in your road, and I am glad you could vent about it here. We all support each other and will be behind you all the way. Keep pushing forward lady, things will look up soon! I know with distance and time difference help is limited, but any way we can help, we will!
Thank you for the support. I know these bumps are merely encouragement to find a better way and not encouragement to quit and go elsewhere
You got this Jennifer. That camping trip may be just what you need. I spent the night playing with the grandkids last night and it was great. that is the first break I have taken since starting here. You will do great
Tim
Thank you Tim. I am in agreeance right now about the camping. I'm wondering if my anxiety will agree when the dates get closer lol. Id's wonderful you got to spend time with the grand kids. They are the blessing we receive for not going completely nuts on our own kids
Bwahahahahaha .... don't tell my kids cause I tell them I'm not ever gonna have grandkids even if I have to follow them everywhere.... but I'm excited for that point in my life
I am so sorry to hear about your frustration. I have a suggestion, Jennifer. Go to the public library to do the major portion of your work and then you can tweak and do minor tasks from your phone. Depending on how old your children are, you can make it a family day at the library...couple of hours, at most, because I believe computer use is limited to two hours. It is in Chicago, but not sure of any use limitations where you live. And that computer idea by JKingsberry was a great suggestion as well. Even an iPad would be great. I go back and forth from my iPad to my PC frequently. No problems working from the iPad. Best of luck!
Hey thank you so very much. Unfortunately I am the neighborhood babysitter for the summer. And am very rarely left with any less than ten kids during library hours. I Will take them on activity days though it will help all the way around.
Awww! I'm sorry. Well maybe on a Saturday, but I know you would like to work on things right away, seeing how passionate you are about your business. I hope you get a computer real soon. Hmm, maybe a friend or family member could lend you one of theirs in the meantime.
I too also do most of my website work on my phone. I have a small old laptop at home but it's very slow and out of date. I get a lot of work done riding the bus and train to and from work and gym on my iPhone. I've been frustrated at times with the limitations I have working this way but I can't give up. I want to make this great so my little girl will be proud of me one day.
Lol my memory is crap that's what hinders me most. But I must say in case anyone is wondering 99% if the websites I've visited here are mobile phone compatible
So far I've done 90% of WA on my cell...I feel ya. On the venting thing...that is what we are here for. We all support each other with technological and emotional help. You are SO strong, you will make a success out of this frustration. Keep smilimg. May YHWH bless you and yours continually.
What an amazing support you are!! Thank you and I'm glad I'm not the only one taking this on with a cell phone lol. I got called crazy the other day at a family dinner they didn't understand, but they will. Hugs!!!
Oh honey.
If it makes you feel any better, I can assure you you're not alone.
Don't let this little bump in your road slow you down - you've been one of my most supportive friends since I joined this crazy family!!!!
If there's ANYTHING I can do, please let me know.
Chin up babe.
Hey, didn't someone on here list a laptop for sale the other day??? Did you see it?
I can try and find it for you, if you like.
Yes, it was actually a really silly joke. And thank you so much. Honestly I don't have it in me to quit. I would never allow my children to stop acting on a dream just cause it seems harder than originally planned. Anything worth it will be difficult at some point. If I can't practice what I preach I most certainly should not peach it lol
I know how you feel. If I have to leave to do a necessary chore, I feel anxious about where I have left off. I still can not get the Nothing Here bit, after doing it correctly. Look, if there is a Walmart close by, apply for the Walmart credit card. They tell you you maximum. Buy a computer and printer, and then hide your card. I was in debt for the amount of $ 10000 and my payments were $ 50.00 a month, BUT an Acer computer was $ 300.00 and the printer was $ 30.00. Maybe then the payments should be no more than $ 25.00 a month. If you can afford $ 25.00 a month, I would try doing this. Our credit was not great, but I was able to buy a computer on sale. Best wishes. At least you can throw the phone to the wall; a desk computer is more difficult.
Lol i ask terrified of the day I get mad enough too throw my phone. Thank you so much for the Acer info. That's actually the brand I've been looking.in to. I'm most definitely going to be seeking that in the near future.
I can relate to your frustrations, I am having problems with my G+ business page. WOW Google has made managing business accounts as hard as the can possibly make it. Be easy on yourself, realize we all go through this from time to time. Main thing is don't give up! It will all come together and you thank yourself for sticking with it. Cheers Kev
