So we can all agree that 2008 was a real dog-dump of a year. Besides the fact that I got married, nothing seem to be going smooth. About a month prior to the wedding, my engineering business began to slow down. Fast! I began pulling from all resources to fill the void of less and less income.
It had been almost 10 years since I had entered the job market. A real eye opener. I had all my eggs in one basket, not a good idea. But I didn't loose my job completely, I just took a large hit. So to help bring in a little more income, I landed a second job with a small boutique hotel here in Paso Robles. Hotel Cheval.
My official title is Assistant Caretaker. Yeah, can you believe it? The caretaker needs an assistant. Pure laziness if you ask me. My duties include anything and everything to maintenance in and around the hotel. The pay sucks and there is only so much to be done until the sun sets, then it's pure boredom until I get off at 9:00 p.m.
I work 7 days a week now, and I need a break. This workin' 2 jobs bit is really starting to eat into my marriage and my social life. I'm never home! I'm feeling some dramatic changes for 2009. I've said it once and I will say it again...
2009 is the year that good things will happen.
I will make things happen.
