Its a brisk cold day here in Maine as I enter my first blog. Yet another site domain to share the existing of my life. I wonder many years from now what folks will think of our ramblings and our struggles to communicate. And I wonder what new form their written rhetoric will comprise. So for all of you who I undoubtedly forget to call, email, write this is for you.

This month has been one filled with struggle, as the economic plague strikes close to home. I have for the past three months been working for LLBean which even in its security as a business has seen the effects as sales and thus returns(my department) have been down. And therefore as a result I have been only working 24 of my scheduled 40 hours. So I look for ways to stop spending, and pick up odd jobs here and there through very gracious friends. The challenge will come even more when this seasonal position ends sometime in January or February. Hopefully by then I will have worked out a new source of income. But for now I am still able to leisurely enjoy my Saturday morning.
