Thanks Rod...

We haven't moved just yet, in fact I find out my fate at work tomorrow, I converted my systems over today to the new company and tomorrow at some point I get the dreaded call to find out what happens to me. My chances are around %90 that I will be part of the transition team and work on retiring our old systems to their systems. which will give me 5-6 months of work with a severance at the end.

But I'm good, we are closing on a really nice house, we totally love the Boise area and the best part is that no matter what happens with work, we have been able to set ourselves up so that if needed we can live off just my wifes salary for a while. In fact we are very seriously discussing me going back to school and getting my BS!!!

So actually maybe I'm better than good, other than we might lose the house if they outright let me go tomorrow which would suck, this is the first time in a long long time that I feel like we are in a position to do some things that WE have wanted to do.

I'm super excited about getting a new shop built have way too many new ideas to play with, CNC, New Model that I was working on, new neck joint, new kerfing that I was playing with. The downtime has given me time to reflect, get things in order, plan and figure out what I really wanted to do and how to go about it. I just got my BRW from Steve at Colonial and it's just awesome, I can't do anything with it but it's still cool.

So thanks for the note, things are good and I'll post a message later this week with an outcome from the job front, doesn't matter what they do anyway because I'm looking at the new year as a chance to finally start over and show the world what I'm really made of

Cheers

-Paul-

I've had my masters in BS for quite some time now.

Good to hear that your well, I grew-up with a life full of transitions and change and now I just love settling down.

Our prayers are with you for what ever the future holds for you and yours.

Keep us posted.Rod True38690.8861226852
