Dateline 1-25-2017

Today's gearing up to be the start of a nice little window of time. Just a couple days ago I was expecting a period filled with hurdles and hoops to navigate through to get to the next point in my plan but now responses are trickling in that are reassuring things will be fine at least for a little while longer.

First, having completed my Android Basic Nanodegree program right around the time of my next monthly fee, I thought that I would have to beg to be refunded since it took them past the due date to process my graduation paperwork. Between that, and their amazing offer to refund half your tuition for completing the course in under a year, I thought for sure I'd be stuck with an overdraft fee as I emailed back and forth to figure things out.

Nope.

That's not the case at all. I received an email this morning informing me that not only would I be refunded the final monthly fee, but all I had to do was click a few links to get my 50% refund which I will be getting in up to eight weeks. It's nice to see that the internet is heading this way. I'm so used to the Internet being the wild wild west that I was expecting a faceless name to inform me that I did something wrong, voiding any offer that got me to sign up in the first place.

Not only that, but I also received an email informing that I landed another temporary job that I thought for sure I had bombed during the application process. I'm not sure how long this will last but I'm now employed for four hours a day. Hopefully, this will last at least one month because if it does, I will be in a place financially where I can afford to start my next set of courses.

I really hope this is the case because I really need to hurry up and move on.

Now it's time to walk the dog to get my daily steps out of the way in order to focus on all my tasks at hand.

Talk to you tomorrow,
