NOW I'M REALLY FEELIN' OLD!!


NOW I'M REALLY FEELIN' OLD!!

Because of the downturn of the economy my business has dropped to new "LOWS".

I have sought work in other sign shops but don't have the skills that are required for the new technologies. I have also tried to find work in the retail field with Home Depot/Lowes etc. in their paint departments.....I don't know if age has anything to do with them showing no interest but I wouldn't be too shocked if that was the case.

Dotti sent this photo of "Tweety" to me and I think that I can see my problem a little more clearly.... it's quite a reality check, and sadly, he is a year or two younger than I am!

Ohhhhhhh...Woe is me!!!

WILL WORK FOR FOOD!!


WILL WORK FOR FOOD!!

I guess it’s about time that I update my “BLOG”….so here goes.

It appears as though our President and the “Media” are making a bad situation worse by all of the negativity being used to advance the notion that we must spend a fortune to “Right” the economy.

This is having the effect of everyone being afraid of spending money to buy new vehicles….all of my clients seem to have that mindset and so I find my work load dried up.

I have been exploring finding work doing something new. There's not much out there and I don’t have much to offer anyone. (Doesn't seem to be much of a need for an old curmudgeon.)

I guess I could put my skills to good use and make myself a sign…”Will Work For Food!!”

I think that these are the times in one’s life when we just need to rise to the occasion.
Pray for your Mother and your Dad.....O.K.!!
