Badge of honor, or not? Thanks. I look at it as a short term pain for a long term gain. I am not exactly homeless. My wife and kids are at my home 450 miles away. I should be in a position to rent a house in a week or 2. Justalittlebad/more or less |

Trying to think of something easier then calling in a backhoe and seal-coating the outside of the basement walls. Any suggestions ?

Badge of honor, or not? You'll make it, man... Sounds smart to me. Sounds like you have some kind of plan, and at least you have a roof over your head. Just absolutely never give up... Don't care about what others think either, but never give up. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 18818840 That is impossible in this business. trucks, equipment, materials....and w/ people spend $10K-$50K, they want to see a nice office, etc. The other problem is my wife's work. she is committed until Oct.

More power to you....I have always thought that small businesses people are the most admirable people around. Remember that the people who are the most successful are usually the ones who have made the most sacrifices. Just stay your course and your efforts will be rewarded. Definitely not made for this world--at least not this century. ...you are dangerous to everyone---not because you are ungifted, but because you embrace evil with your teachings. In so doing, in trying to be kind, to be unselfish, in trying to be nonjudgmental, you allow evil to become far more powerful than it otherwise would. You refuse to see evil, and so you welcome it among you. You allow it to exist. You give it power over you. You are a people who have welcomed death and refuse to denounce it. You are an empire naked to the shadow of evil. Terry Goodkind, NAKED EMPIRE |
