So for the last six months things for me have been a little stressful and tough. I had to find any job I could since real estate just hasn't done well here. I still have six listings but nothing happening on them. So I went to work for a friend to help out with a coffee shop, went back as a server at a restaurant I worked at 7 years ago, and any other job I could to make sure we were paying all our bills. Everything was very tight but we were hanging on.

So just the other day one of my friends calls me and tells me they are looking for someone to fill a job. I just got back from meeting him and I am taking the job. It pays well and things will be a little more normal for me and my family. SWEET (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) .

Just thought I'd let you know and share the good news (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) .

Thanks guys. I'm on my may to work at the restaurant right now and thinking it will be nice to not have to work all day on a Saturday soon.

Plus this job will have me traveling a few times a year to trade shows. Maybe I will actually get to meet some of you crazy guys I haven't met yet.

Hey Curt

Now maybe we can grab a round of golf once I get back to level (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Man, after working a 10 hour shift last night serving tables I realise I am not as young as I use to be and serving is a job for the young... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
