A New Chapter

We are closing a chapter in our life and starting a new one.  The kids won’t notice the change but I will and David most definitely will.  It is exciting and a little scary too.  Friday was David’s last day working at Active Care.  It has been one of the hardest places for David to work at thus far in his career.  We know that when Active Care bought Greenwire 1 1/2 years ago it was meant to be.  We knew they were the answer to our prayers of the direction they needed to go.  We still aren’t sure exactly why it was meant to be and what was to be learned from this experience.  Especially since the last year and a half have been complete hell for David at work.  It is hard for me to completely understand what David went through everyday.  All I can say is that no matter the amount of money your husband is making, if he is not happy at work the money is not worth it.

David will be doing his own business again, with equal partners this time, doing something completely different then selling medical or diabetic units.  It will be internet marketing and using a dialer they created and it will still include a call center in the Philippines.  So wish us luck as we embark on a new adventure!

How close have you been to a Prophet?

David, and two other guys he works with, were invited to the Jazz game last Friday night. I have come to find out as a construction wife, to get business, you gotta play A LOT ! Here is a short list, not limited to, of what I mean by "play": Golfing (about 3 times a week-depending on the week and in warm weather of course) Snow skiing (about 2 times a week, again this depends on the week and when there's snow) Fancy dinners (this can also be counted as lunch, which happens more than I know I'm sure!) Executive Retreats (this will be happening in February for about 5 days in AZ, which will have all 5 days full of golfing, guaranteed!!) Jazz games (again, when in season) I don't know about you, but I think I'm in the wrong career!! This house wife things just does not include ANY of those benefits!! Anyway, on with the story at the Jazz game... These weren't just ordinary tickets. Where do executives and people in high places sit? Oh yeah, ...

Our New Family Pictures

Image
I have been on the hunt for a really good photographer for a long time here and there.  And I think I found one that did everything I wanted.  First, she comes and looks at the feel of your home.  For us I just sent pictures of our living room where I wanted the pictures placed.  Then she suggests colors to wear and sent pictures back with our room and picture placements she puts on the walls.  And with 5 kids, especially Jenna, you really have to photo shop A LOT!!  Almost every photo with Jenna she had to photo shop.  She did amazing!!  I was so nervous when we went over and viewed our pictures at her house.  As David put it after our photo shoot “She has to be a magician to get anything good out of that!  That was a disaster!”  After looking at our proofs I said, “well, you are a magician!”  And David said after leaving and climbing in our car to go home “That was worth every penny.”  Success! I do have a few faces to...

Melanie’s Calling in Life

Image
Two Days ago Melanie was getting ready to go out the door.  She had her coat and was looking for her other jacket.  I asked her why she needed it when she already had her coat on.  She said she was going to take it to her friend at school, Humana, because she wears 3 jackets and doesn’t have a coat.  5 minutes later Melanie asked me “Mom, can we buy Humana a coat?”  I had already been thinking about that but told Melanie I would look while I was out to see if I could find one.  I went to 3 different stores to look!  Winter coats in that size are hard to find these days!  But I finally found something at Walmart and got gloves and a hat.  My friend, Angela, who drove carpool that morning called me while I was out looking.  She called worried because Melanie had said on the way to school that her friend didn’t have a coat and was sleeping on the floor.  I told her I knew about the coat and was getting one but Melanie hadn’t mentioned ...
