My first concert that I saw was the Raspberries. Brownsville Station (Smoking in the Boys Room ) was the opening act. Convention Center, Ocean City MD. Dad drove me and a couple of siblings and dropped us off. Great memory!
Thanks so much everybody. The first item on my to-do list today was to request prayers. Since then, I’ve accomplished several other items on the list as well. Moving forward.
I am a corporate finance guy and one year ago took a job in a small company, a job that involved training to replace the controller who was getting ready to retire. This job was something of a stretch for me as I had no prior management experience and no experience in some of the areas that fall under the position that I was hired for. Things did not work out -Friday I was told that they would be letting me go and seeking someone else. This was not totally unxpected, the last 6 months or so I had been feeling that this would not work out for me. They have offered to give me good references, as I am very good at the areas in which I have worked in during the past 15 years.
I'm asking for some prayers. I have seen these prayers requests and have been moved by them. I am not the kind of person who feels comfortable asking for help, but I have never needed help as much as I do know. During the past difficult 6 months or so I have been praying every day, but this is not something that I have been used to. I have been listening to a lot of Christian music lately and have found this helpful.
I am a long time Freeper and have always been moved by the praeyer threads. Thanks.
He said, when talking about the girl he pulled through the door, “You know something was really wrong when a pretty white girl runs into a black man’s arms”. Good bless him - he was very excited.
