I have a store, so I get 1,000 free listings plus 10,000 free listings in select categories, and 250 free auction listing each month.

Ah okay. When I am ready to go on a listing spree I will look into getting a store.

A store is totally worth it.

I agree. For $21.95 a month it is worth it. Discount fees, free supplies each quarter, and the ability to run sales and send out coupons is great.

Thanks for letting me know. I have thought about it but I just didn’t know if I wanted to dedicate that much time to selling.

Getting to go visit my wife at her sisters for the first time after her surgery. It is the first time me and my son have had the same day off all week so that is why we didn’t visit sooner.

My hands made an "it's okay" kind of gesture but I said nothing. I simply sat the bag on the concrete and meandered away, across the street and back to where I parked. I didn't want her to see my car, so it was a block away and around the corner. I didn't want to undermine the possibility that I might be on the streets too, for now. I think maybe that might make me seem more approachable.

As I was driving away, I came back into view of where I had left the bag and it was gone. So was she.

Baby steps.

I think I'll wait until Saturday and do it again.

Great first baby step!

After so much time apart. is she going to recognize you?

Observation...what in the heck was Glen doing up AND posting in here before 7:30 this morning? His alarm clocks must have gone out and woken him up in the doghouse.

I take stuff to a guy named Brady that has some severe mental issues. At first, he was very standoffish about me, but slowly has come around.

It just takes time. Keep showing you only want to help.

Is there anything worse than waking up sick when you have taken PTO? I don't feel good at all today. I could feel late last night that something was wrong.

I trimmed my beard since the last time she saw me, any other disguises I should use to throw her off.

We work in a 100% classified environment. There is no bringing anything in and getting it on the network.

If he did, it is because glen told him to since he knows those guys,

No not really, it sucks when you work so hard and finally take a day for yourself and can’t enjoy it. Here’s hoping at some point you start feeling better today and can salvage at least something out of the day.

I finally finished all of my forms to initiate purchases. I received my approval to renew my PMI membership so I just did that. I was going to do the expense report for them to pay that on my corporate American Express and our expense system is down.

Now I'm listening to some Indian dude with a PMP giving a webinar as I needed only one more PDU to renew my PMP certification. After that is over with (1 hour long), I can put in another Professional Development request to renew my certification.

The fake plastic glasses they used to make. A crazy wardrobe change? Maybe show up as a surfer dude?

Sounds like you are trying to get things done.

Definitely plus seeing if there are any good cards in the Walmart by her sisters. My Wife’s appetite must be coming back because she asked us to bring her egg rolls and crab rangoons. I wish I knew of a Chinese restaurant closer to her sisters house so the food would still be as hot as when they cooked it.

I need to get ready to go to the Tampa show. Don't know if I'll post again before I leave. If not, I'll check in tonight. Have a good (or in the case of you, bigdog, a better) day everyone.

Excellent, hoping you are not too bored but it will be worth it in the long run.
