New Beginnings!! :)

The time has come, the time is now :-)

For my new job @ Aria Medical, I made an SEO website located at http://www.kristaquinn.com

That's right! KristaQuinn.com! How cool is that? My name as my own domain name?

Because I am so proud of my new domain, I've decided to start hosting my personal blog there, too. Please follow my posts there and keep reading! All of my personal blogging posts will now be held at:

Thanks for reading!

Sweet Moments, First Steps

I work at a church nursery every Wednesday. I usually don't look forward to it before I go in because I'm already tired and just want to read a book for the rest of the night, or now, research SEO for my new job. I don't know why I have this feeling when each week I always leave feeling like I just spent time with some of the coolest kids on the planet. =-) Tonight was no exception.

I got to help a little girl take some of her first steps tonight. It was such a remarkable thing to see and be a part of. She has some health issues that prohibit her from using her muscles correctly (it will take her a lot longer to learn how to use them than other kids), so to help her achieve this was so amazing for me. She was grinning from ear to ear and didn't want to stop. I am very excited about being able to help her again next week!

Writing and THE Job

So tonight I was talking to my aunt on the phone and we were discussing our writings. She was contemplating different writing approaches for a novel she wants to begin writing, and it got me thinking, I have not felt very inspired to write lately....

I know that I currently do not have the desire to write a novel, but I do enjoy short stories... Does anyone have any unique writing prompts or topics for me to consider? My lack of inspiration is really bugging me, so I thought I would ask my few readers to help me out with this one.... :)

So, I am REALLY enjoying my job. I'm learning a whooooole lot about SEO and the little things that come with it. It has been really neat to see and be a part of what makes and keeps a website running. Every dad I learn something (usually a whole lot) new, and it has been fun to actually DO the work, instead of hearing a professor lecture about it all day. I am definitely enjoying the other side of college- doing what you are learning about makes it so much more exciting! Granted, I do miss being able to take a nap at any given moment. Although, I don't think taking naps will ever beat being able to say, "Back when I was in college...." like I've been out of school for years (as opposed to a little over a month). =-)
