Terminated!


So, I went to work this last Monday, it was just another Monday, I answered phones, I solved problems, listened to complaints, talked with my co-workers. It was a lovely day, really. At the end of my shift, I was asked by my lead manager to follow him into the Boss' office and I agreed. I sat down and, long story short, was "TERMINATED"! Those are the words he used. He felt really bad, but business was slow so they had to cut some people. Oh well, I really feel like it's an opportunity to find something bigger and better. I feel like it was one of those relationships where you really want to break up with the person but you really don't have the heart. Then the person tells you they want to break up. You get a big sense of relief and a little bit of sorrow, but you know it's right. That's pretty much how this was. I have to say I saw it coming and I'm really excited to get a job that's more up my career alley. I just need to do my part, and the Lord will provide :)

Holy Moly!

Ok! Here I am! And life couldn't be better! I'm still at Martin Garage Doors doing the customer service song and dance and actually enjoying it quite a bit! I've also been dating a very sweet girl named Christy for about 5 months now and we have so much fun together. She's really something and I find myself striving to be better in every way for her. Life is just going so well and I can attest to the fact that the Lord blesses those who follow His commandments. Anyways, my life is really REALLY boring and so there's not much to update. But I will leave you all with a few pictures. Enjoy!

The Latest!


Well, it's been a while since I've posted something on this thing, so I figured that it is high time for an update. Life is going very very well right now. My sister Sarah and her husband Bryant just had their first boy and third kid. His name's Carter and he is absolutely adorable! He sleeps all the time and farts up a storm, but we love him none the less. I just recently got a job working customer service at a garage door installation place called Mr. Martin Garage Doors. Basically I'm a verbal punching bag for the people who call in. I honestly think that they use their garage door as a mask for the things that are really troubling them because a lot of the conversations I end up having with half of the people that call in sound a lot like something you'd hear on Dr. Phil. The other half of the time I just get cursed at for 5 minutes and then they ask to speak with my manager. But it pays well and I love my co worker's so I really have nothing to complain about. I'm really looking forward to this summer. I have a lot of fun things to do planned with my friends. So, all in all, life has been good to me and I am trying hard not to take anything for granted. Basically, life is amazing!

Some nice film equipment, put a lot of it into various charities, help my family out when/if they needed it and then I would invest/save the rest of it.

Break and Enter!

So, every weekend since for as long as I can remember, my Dad would take me and some of my siblings to my Grandpa's warehouse to clean the parking lot and the truck well and all that good stuff. Well, this past weekend my Dad was sick, so my friend Michael and I took on the task ourselves. After we had finished cleaning, Michael decided it would be an opportune time to make a movie. So we did. Here it is...
