My husband did some consulting, and took a succession of jobs with quarries and asphalt companies. Eventually, work dried up.
My husband eneded up loading mail at an airport, and I went to work at a catalogue company taking orders. We almost lost our home.
But now, my husband has a good job with a company who does civil engineering. I started an antique business. We are on our way to getting back on track.
Rather than dwelling on how unfair things are, look for how you can overcome.
I remember that...it was during the 2000 campaign and if you had a customer from Texas you'd comment on their governor who struck you as a good man. Good work!
