The end is near
What will I be doing in two weeks? Anything I want! With classes coming to an end and my dads business closing wrapping up, I am about to have free time to do all the stuff I have been wanting to. Well, until I get a new job that is. I plan to take a few weeks where I just fish, shoot, work on my '68 coupe deville, start on my armed security gaurd certification, and take my concealed weapons class. The stress of the last few months has nearly pushed me to my breaking point. The end to my excessive stress is near and I can see the light. I cannot explaing how excited I am.
Semester of Chaos
The last few months have been crazy. The semester has gone all but planned. The biggest kink in my semester is my dads company shutting down. After about ten years in the construction business, my dad is calling it quits. This may sound like a bad thing, but it is really very relieving. Running a business requires sacrifices and tons of stress. Being a part of the business myself, it is a huge stress relief for me, or will be when its all said and done. The biggest task I was responsible for this semester was selling all the trucks and equipment. With putting dozens of pieces of equipment and trucks online for sale and getting them in auctions came hundreds of phone calls, countless two hour round trips to Bristow, and several hours of moving everything out of the shop. This overwhelming task took over my life, and my classes suffered. I tried juggling both the best I could at first, but quickly got stretched too thin. I will pass all my classes, but my grades will reflect my lack devotion to school. Next semester I will work on making up my GPA.
