Well things are going OK right now. Several things have happened: 1. The man who waves on the side of the street died. 2. I went to Wa. for Christmas. 3. I now own 3 shares of Holiday water stock. 4. I have Level 1 of the Parelli system to train Puck. 5. Brenda and I are still married. 6. Brenda is now working on the side for the company that Rawb works for. 7. I am just starting to work for my dad on the whole real estate thing. 1 is self explanatory. 2 was an adventure. Brenda's mom did not seem to hate me, we even talked. She did not want to accept the $1200 dollars from us, and ended up giving back $400... it was a fight to make her keep $800. Brenda didn't get along with her brother and sister very well, they seem to be extremely different people now. I almost had a talk with her brother, next time we are there if he continues to behave the way he did, I will definately have words. Brenda is my wife, and no one will swear at her, yell at her, or treat her in other disrespectful ways. Her dad was her dad, he is always laid back. They all chipped in and bought me a Nintendo DS, which was awesome of them, I never even expected a thing from them. 3 was in the works since last month, and now I finally own them. I have the job of selling them at a price somewhere close to what the company sells them for, and then splitting the profit with Larue according to the shedule we previously agreed upon. Hopefully this will be profitable for both of us, and keep Brenda happy with the fact that I am actually making some money. 4 the system seems to be working so far, but I have just barely started. I hope to get to the point where I will be paid to train horses, and possibly other people. It will be expensive to get there but I believe it will be worth it, especially if we are going to own a few more horses. 5 is self explanatory, I say that because Rocky continues to ask anytime I call Hans at work. Figure everyone else might like to know, even if it is blatantly onvious. 6 Brenda seems happy about this, it will help her portfolio, and give her more experience in areas she has little. Hopefully this will increase her chances of getting a job in the areas she really wants, and the job is 100% telecommuting. If the company continues to do well, maybe she will be taken on full time and can work for them even after we move to Washington. 7 This will be hard work and possibly take a toll on me, but will be a great education and very profitable. I should make enough to buy our land outright, and have a downpayment to build our home. Then I can continue to do it in Wa. and make enough to pay off our home and put a little aside. I am doing well in Gàidhlig class, and soon I will be taking Wing Chun again!!! I am still on track for my 3 year plan of being fluent in Gàidhlig, being a SiFu, and a Horse trainer/ferrier. Things are looking up, and I may have a hard 10 years ahead of me, but after that I can finally live my dream completely.
