Taking Care of Business...

Dear blog...

It is surprising that even though I've been "unemployed" for about a week and a half now, I am busier than I ever was while I was employed... it's probably because I now have to worry about doing many other things to take care of my financial situation -- like call and meet with creditors to discuss being put on payment plans. I did handle quite a few aspects of the situation today, but I still have a few more to go. I feel I have a good system going though to be sure that I am accomplishing what I need to each day. It's actually quite liberating to know that I'm being responsible, and taking care of everything like this, with little-to-no external help...! I love being productive!

So I put italics around the word "unemployed" in the previous paragraph because technically I am employed, but only by the National Guard, and I'm getting paid under the table (SHHHH!!!) as a field technician for 4Home Control, my old company.


4Home Control... I wish I could divulge everything that I know about what has been happening with this, my prior employer, but I shan't merely because it is sensitive information currently. All I can say is that the investor pulled funds, that I was laid off, and that I'm now on unemployment, but still working under the table for them until I either can be brought on salary again with the company, or find another job. I am definitely holding off as long as I can to find another job, however, because I really, REALLY enjoy working under Justin, and for this company. More to come...

I "just" moved to the other side of the basement at the Donosso residence (Technically, I moved in here about a month and a half ago, but it's taken this long to get things done, situated, and set up). I'm still not completely set up -- I still have to move more storage stuff under the stairs, organize the front room how I want it, move the entertainment stuff out of my room into there, and finally deep clean and vacuum the place entirely. I should be able to accomplish these things by the end of the week, but we'll see how THAT goes...

I am happy to announce that this Saturday will mark 6 months (to the day) that I have been officially together with Bethany Childress. Man, time has flown by and it seems like just yesterday that we were sitting in the movie theater at University Mall watching "Les Miserables" (the one with Hugh Jackman as Jean Valjean). Good times, good times. It has been a great, but sometimes rocky six months, that's for sure. We've experienced multiple personal and relationship issues (mostly personal, but yeah, some relationship), but not enough to be too concerned. I can honestly say at this point that I will stand by this woman for as long as she'll have me... through all Eternity...? Sold! We had a very good experience together this past Sunday night, where she poured her heart out to me, and shared some deep personal things that I shall never recount (except with her if she brings them up). I am so glad she feels she can trust me with these things... because she can. Always. 

To be continued...
