Breaking News...

I am interrupting my own beach updates to bring some breaking news.

Mark is no longer unemployed.

Yet technically he isn't employed either.

Well, I guess he is.

Just not by someone else.

After looking at several options, praying, and exploring possibilities, we have a decision.

Mark is going to be his own boss.

Yes, self-employed.

He has a company name and everything. (Integrated Solutions Group)


There are still a couple details to work out (the whole paying taxes thing and what to do about health insurance) but otherwise, he is ready to go.

I would love to tell you exactly what he will be doing but I don't know that I can do it justice. :)

I know he will be a consultant for business development for other companies.  He can handle marketing needs.  He is also an excellent lighting designer.  And I think there is more.

Like I said, I can't do it justice.

The funny thing is he has wanted to do this ever since I have known him.

But when we were newlyweds, I couldn't handle that thought of not having a steady income.  Then we had one kid, then two kids.  No way, Jose.  Now we have four kids and a furry pup, and I said, "Go for it..."

And he is.

Looking forward to where God is leading him!
