Well, I'm finally returning to the land of steady employment. Since March of lsat year I've been working as an apprentice locksmith, doing primarily foreclosed homes for banks. This year so far has been bad work wise for us, prolly on account of it being an election year, (speculate as you will.)
After a couple months of looking, I've gotten an offer and am taking it for a 40 hour a week gig with my apartment complex. While not my ideal gig, its full time, and has benefits, and that is what counts.
It also means I'll be able to do some work to my 74, and that is what I'm most excited for.
