Lovely evening
Well, it's official...We went over my friend/boss/new landlords house last night for dinner and sat down and discussed all the basics and the lease is ready. We are signing it November 3. Kenny is going down on November 6, and I am following him in the first week of December. What am I going to do without my man and my dog for two weeks? Ugh...Baggy boy isn't excited at all, but oh well.. He will get over his fear of the unknown, and he will thrive.. He just doesn't know it yet. This is one instance where I do believe this is for our families best interest. So the anticipation is building and the thrill of not being broke is rather exciting. Kenny smokes like a damn chimney, and that alone will save us a ton of money as they cost half the price down there. It's funny, I tried to explain to my family about karma. This friend of mine I have known for about 7 years. She knew me at my worst. No secrets there. No matter how I was living I treated people decently. People remember that. So now here we sit, an opportunity given to me, along with this temporary employent til we move, by an old friend who I always treated nicely. Not easy to explain that to an 18 year old, basically about the old do unto others bit...Those simple rules you learn as a child are life rules...Shame more people don't apply them to their adult lives...Peace...

Baggy Lad...this is the beginning of an adventurous spirit. The head of a new path, different from the old one. Had I not left my comfort zone at 17 I never would have garnered the name Walking Man.
If you embrace the unknown the future will do the same to you.
We are on the same page WM...try explaining this to a kid who is in a comfort zone, almost like Linus and his blanket. His job is one block from the house...New experiences, people, make you into an adult with a better ability to make choices as you have things to compare.
A new environment certainly clears the cob webs out of a brain suffused in clinging to the old and tired way of doing things.
