Two years later.....

It's been two years since I last posted anything on this blog. Tonight I have decided to begin again my blogging on topics in my personal life. My professional life is well documented on my websites and blogs located elsewhere... Look me up if you want to know what is going on in my professional life. Click here for starters.

In the past two years many things have changed. I am still selling real estate and I am thrilled to be working as a real estate advisor. It's a challenging market but I am still doing enough business to keep the lights on and the kids fed.

Speaking of kids......MacKenzie is now living with me. She decided this past summer that she wanted to move back to Washington and go to high school here. She is currently a freshman at Stadium High School. Nick is a senior at Stadium and will be graduating this year.

I am no longer married. Regretfully some decisions in life do not work out the way you hope. My marriage is one of those decisions. I will not waste your time with the details....

I have been reconnecting with many of my old friends and co-workers. It is amazing how many people you lose contact with through the years. I have been using Facebook for a couple of months now. I have reconnected with several of my high school friends. I am looking forward to actually getting together with some of them. It's been way too long. Many of my past co-workers in corporate America and I have been spending more time together. I am grateful that I am no longer a wage slave. Trading a steady paycheck and health benefits for my time no longer has any attraction to me. Sure it's tough to make a go of it on a 100% commission business but the upside is that I control my time and I control my income. If I want to make more I can. That to me is simply vital. Many of my former co-workers are coming to this realization as well. 2009 looks to be the year that many of us realize that our lives are our own and we need to run them as we see fit. There is no one path for all of us. I just hope that more of us will look to find the path that is right for us.

I will close to tonight with simple request for anyone that might read this. I wish you all the best and I hope that you will enjoy your life to the fullest.

Best wishes,

Scott
