Ch Ch Changes

So its been a while cyber fellas. Keeping up with the blog has been very difficult. Everything I see, I say to myself "oh, I could blog about that" Alas I never do. Well sometimes I don't. Sometimes I do. Well there has been alot happening here lately. Annie is trying to seek gainful employment for the school season. My friend George from work is leaving to take a new job at a dealership far south from us. I am very disappointed only for selfish reasons. George and his family have become best friends with my family. Having George work with me has been really fun for the past 3 years...on and off. I wish him well in his new/old endevor.

Well I decided to keep the earlier part of this post together, even though it is roughly 3 weeks old and I haven't updated it, because it suddenly is very relevent to whats going on in the land of Jim. I too have decided to leave my post at Lakes Region VW and have joined George in Mass at Commonwealth Motors. I have cherished my time in Gilford. It has afforded me the ability to pursue this job in Lawerence that even though there will be quite a commute involved, I think will in the long run be better for my family and my bank account. Actually the commute is only approx 10 miles further, although I assume with traffic it will probably be about 30 mins each way longer.

I guess the really scary part of all this is that I am starting a new job. No wait. Thats not the scary part. The scary part is that I have never given a 2 week notice anywhere. This was the first time ever. I usually either get fired (only once or twice) or just say "eff it" and just not show again (maybe a little more often than is called for) or just get squeezed out (oddly the way I have most often lost employment). Anyway, Lakes Region has been very good to me in the 6+ years I have worked there so I really needed to give 2 weeks. I suddenly feel like a lame duck. Kinda like Clinton in 99-2000 minus the BJ's from the office girls (yikes where'd that come from?) Well now I know what playing for the Kansas City Royals is all about. Just playing out the string.

Well suddenly Aug 15 has come and gone and I am now on the back side of 30 years old. It really doesn't feel any different. My pants still go on 1 leg at a time. Just a few more gray hairs and a sudden realization that all the advice my father gave me through the years will now need to be dispensed to my ever growing 4 year old. I am really looking forward to the cars/girls conversations as opposed to the spongebob/remote losing conversations.

I promise I will do a better job of leaving this rubbish for people to read more often.

Until then, peace out girl scouts
