Hi all,
I've been taking some time to myself. I haven't been soul searching like usual. I took some time and just experienced a little life like other people. I grew some facial hair which is unusual for me. I also started drinking again. I was so attached to non attachment that it became another attachment. So I feel more balanced with these decisions and life is getting better for me with the divorce going through. I try to see my kids whenever I can but money is always an issue. I am working on getting into the sheet metal union her ein Vegas. It pays well and it is geared toward my career goals. I also started going to my friend's Drink and Draw every thursday. It has helped me become more social and blow off steam hanging with my friends. So all of you who fogot about me or wondered I am ok.

Jason, nobody here chased you. Nobody here pestered you to see what was going on... We knew you were going through a shedload. but sometimes, a wounded friend just needs time and space to think, and heal....without extra weight hanging on their shoulders. But nobody ever forgot about you, Jason.
And I'm glad you've come back to keep us updated.
It's really cool to see you again.
Even if your avatar does make you look like you have a running chainsaw just out of camera shot....!!:D
:wavey:
I hope your problems are diminishing - they don't go away, but they become more manageable sometimes.
We are here for you but nobody is going to put pressure on you. I know - I have been off work for 14 months on sick leave and I appreciate that people are concerned but sometimes get sick to death of telling people "No, I am fine, honestly, I'm great".
So grab a mug, settle in and I'll see if there is any cake in the tin. Sure I made some the other day
opens tin muttering about not being able to keep up with the demand these days
I don't drink very much. I am still the responsible adult. Thanks Fed. My chainsaw is in the shop. Blood always clogs the motor. LOL
Good to see you around. I'm glad that you are still doing what you can to make the best out of a bad situation. I hope that everything works out for you in the end and that you find true happiness.
Jason
Brilliant. This is pure brilliance.
Welcome back, Jason
It's good to see you. Sorry for the troubles you have been going through. Stick around and let us know how we can help.

Things are looking up for me. I went back into management at Dominos. I have my own store now. It is actually the store I I was hired at and worked in for years. It fits me. I've been working a lot but it feels like I am working for myself. I do get 20 percent of the profits. The store has some problems but I am working the kinks out. I make sure to take as much down time as possible so I don't burn out and I make sure to have some fun with my friends at least once a week. I also make it a point not to micromanage my Assistant managers and I have also decided not to stress out about the store while at home. 2007 was the worst year of my life. 2008 was the year I started doing something about it. 2009 is the year I am going to start accomplishing my goals. Thanks for all the support.
Simply, utterly marvellously brilliant.
good on you.
You deserve it.
Go get 'em Tiger!!

Congrats and may every day bring you more peace and joy!
Ditto, Kiddo!
DAMMIT I forgot you lived in Vegas! I was there for five days to cover CES for Icrontic, I should have gotten in touch with you. Oh well, we'll be at CES 2010 too, we'll have to hook up then
I quit my job recently. I had put in around 11 years at Domino's. I went into the hospital in may for Diverticulitis. I've had to change my whole diet. It was brought on from bad diet and stress from work. I went back to work and tried to slow down a lot but then my bosses said I had to start working seven days a week. I walked right then and there. I also filed for unemployment and I was awarded the decision. I'm going to move to California City next month. My dad's friend owns a house there which needs fixing up and she wants to rent it out. I am going to look for a job there and rent it out. The bonus is that California City is 119 miles from my kids. I will be able to see them more often which is what I want. So I've been spending a lot of time working on my 1978 Dodge Van. I've been restoring it to use as a travel van for camping. I'm almost done with the inside. I built a bed fram and I am installing carpet and seat and doing the interior painting this week. Tonight I'm going to a kegger with one of my buddies. I'm not driving so it is my responsibility to drink till I vomit. (just kidding)
Sorry to hear both about your position and your health. Of course, your health is a far greater treasure.
I'm so happy you won some justice for yourself. Making someone work at the same job seven days a week is just inhuman.
May the Force Be With You Always!
