I was joking. It's been a big year. First baby arrived end of summer.

I learned that not having my father around is the most difficult and empty part of my life that will never get easier. I also learned that many people trust me enough to help others.

I learned that being underemployed and happy in my work is way better than a high salary and
soul-sucking work environments.

Growth rarely comes from a place of comfort. 2017 was a good year but a tough year. I had been considering a career change for a few years and getting laid off was the push I needed to do it.

Fair enough. In all seriousness, I do learn quite a bit from the LR. Lots of interesting, intelligent, and passionate folks in here.

Starting a new business is never easy, but this time around for some strange reason, its seems harder and more stressful than ever.
Maybe Im just turning into my old man who stressed about everything, including stressing about not being stressed enough!

That despite the way I feel about myself I AM a good person, it’s ok to let myself be loved, taking a chance on myself was the best thing I could have done and that my kids are and will always be the most important thing to me.

As for you, I sincerely hope that you do get yourself back to where you need to be. Based on many of your posts I assumed that you were tremendously stable etc financially.

It's all fine. It just went a bit tits up when my flat burnt down On the day it was being listed for sale and I lost my job. It's temporary (I hope)

Having a little faith / confidence in yourself does wonders for your self esteem.

That's awesome. I have some concrete projects around my house I plan on doing polished concrete for. Outdoor tables, bar area for the deck, small stuff I can cast in my garage. Kind of have the idea to do the kitchen countertops in concrete, but, I just wont have the time to do all the labour myself.

I love working with concrete in unique settings, the possibilities are endless.


This is the service I use for bigger projects.

I learned that I love to cook but I love to eat more than I love to cook. Not a good situation. Did someone say pork chops and applesauce?

I learned, I'm not too young to be a grandparent and look forward to it in 2018, July to be exact. Which means, I'm not moving to California next summer.
