Build Your Own PC

For years now I’ve had it in the back of my mind to build my own PC. I have two degrees in Computer Science and have worked as a web/software developer for nearly a decade. With that amount of tech…nerdary…it is expected that I know about things like hard drives and printers and what have you. My secret shame, though, is…I don’t.

I haven’t quite hit my 30 mile goal…and I’m not sure I will be able to. It was crazy hot, and now it’s pretty cold – heading toward crazy cold.

30 Before 30

If you remember my 30 Before 30 from days gone by, this one is definitely  tweaked in some major ways. Also, it’s not really stuff that I plan on getting done before my 30th birthday. I’m giving myself through the end of 2018. I guess there’s something at least somewhat exciting at starting your 30s as a newly-single mom?
