J.D. Stark's blog:
I won’t let ’em break my spirit. As hard as they tried to do just that, I still feel pretty good about myself. With a smaller company, I’ll be able to settle in; work hard, maybe finally reap justified rewards for my efforts...further some personal goals and aspirations.

Sunshine Rodgers's blog:
So I bought a used car that had a few issues with it. And while I was sitting at the mechanic, I thought of the owner who had this car last and how this car now ended up in my hands.
It brought me to this realization: if you can't take care of it, you can't have it.
If you can't dedicate time for y... Read more of this blog post »

1400 words today get me to 20,100. Woot.
