So It's been a LONG 2 1/2 years!! We are coming to the end of our layoff journey soon hopefully with Jon graduating about the 16th of this month MAYBE we can get something going! So far 2 places have said NO to hiring him but ONE gave him a VERY valid reason, they were full, the other didn't even give him the time of day, just a nice form letter saying "You're not the tech we're looking for" (rolls eyes while reading that last part like obi wan).
We've over come a lot and given up a lot but we have made it this far!! I've been working more hours which has helped and we recently won a contest that is going to give us a chunk of money to pay for Jon's tools that he still needs (I'm still in shock that a single socket can cost over 50 bucks) so things are starting to look up.
So BotCon (the once a year transformers convention) has been announced. We (the entire family, even Lexi) has decided this would be THE vacation to take and it is SOOOO close this year we can taste it! Dallas Texas LOOK OUT the family has it's eyes on you!! LoL
April 26th thru the 29th in downtown Dallas, I just wish that we knew for sure we had the money to go. I'm getting tons of stuff together to sell and we recently started couponing to try and help reduce costs and i'm trying to see how much money i can put back from that.
Lots of stuff happening! Stay tuned folks LoL and you can follow me on twitter jumpstart17.
Autobots! Roll out!!
