I'm filling in on an A.M. visit close to home.<br /> I'd posted a couple of things about the end of last week, the care givers conference, and what not. Well, I left a couple of things out that I've certainly given much thought to over the weekend, such as... I ran into (ha,ha not literally) my friend Larry Miller on Thursday night at the gas station. He owns the only music store in Lynden. I thought it had closed, but Larry told me that business was so well, that they moved to a new building. They now have 2 drum studios, and no drum instructor... Larry offered me that spot about a year and a half ago, or two. Timing was not right for me then, but now... Gunna check on that one today.<br /> Also, at the care givers conference, there were several agencies that were 'selling' their employee benefits, such as work 20+ hours get full bennis, and/or higher pay. I'm kinda wanting out of the care-giving racket, and I actually have it pretty easy where I'm at. It's just 2 paydays a month strewn so damn far apart are killin' me and making me want to look for something more. So, I'm gunna look at least and see what's what.<br /> Finally, I got in touch with a couple of friends from back in my high school days. I talked for almost 2 hours with my old friend Duane. I'm looking forward to hooking up with these folks and making up for lost time.<br /> Any how, I'm feeling very hopeful with the new potential 'work' stuff on the horizon.<br /> BTW, if I start teaching drums at the Noisy Neighbor (music shop), I'm going to see if I can sell my meal replacement bars and XS Energy drinks to my students, or outta the store! I can grow my clientele base, because I'm an exclusive distributor of these drinks, and if people want to purchase them in bulk, I can gladly help them do that... you won't find XS at Costco, or Wal Mart, only thru an independent distributor!<br /> So, I'm ready to have my 1 hour out of the way to move onto more beneficial things today.<br /> That's about all for now.
