The Untitled Post

Not a whole lot to post today, just a few tid-bits of the past week.

First off, the Browns remain undefeated. The C-Team beat Gilbert 22-6 today. It was a pretty good game for 5-7 (or are they 8?) year olds, and Conman got to play during the fourth quarter on Offense. He had two REALLY good blocks while on the line, so momma's proud.

DH got a rejection letter from the big job he was looking at Down South. Not a big problem, though - where there's a will, there's a way, and now he's looking at taking a 5 - 10 day course to become a licensed home inspector with aims of eventually starting our own business inspecting and possibly cost-assessing homes Down South. It's always been a dream of ours to own our own business, and this is the perfect opportunity to do so.

I still haven't heard ANYTHING from any of the jobs I applied for Down South. I think I really have to be down there to get a job, and I may have to work for a couple of years on "some other job" before I'm able to quit and work with DH in "our business" full-time. That's okay, though - as long as we're making our way in the world, doing good and keeping Conman eating regularly and in new clothes, I call that a success. As long as I can keep a roof over our heads and the electricity on, we're successful.

The plan now is go Down South next weekend, scope some houses on Sunday and go and see some of the temp services on Monday morning and then break the sound barrier getting back here for the start of our work weeks on Tuesday. Wish us luck, we'll need it. This is the first actual step on the journey we've decided to take.
