And it Keeps Getting Worse

Boy, DHG really is sinking, or so it seems. They fired 6 people on Thursday, and I think all of them were in tax. I can't believe it. That's 14 people in the past few months who have been let go. Not a good start to the new year. But then they'll talk about how we're having a great year. How can we be having a great year if we are firing people left and right? But I picked up a new client, at a huge discount, right down the street from me. So I'll be working there 2-3 days/week. Yippee. And I'm hoping to go more hours with Deque. Actually, I'm hoping that Deque does the math and realizes that it's better for them to hire me, and that I could do much more for them as a FTE. That would be so much nicer. I finally heard from Germane Systems - they hired someone with more government experience. And I'm okay with that - I would have had to give up too much for the job, so this way, I'm still doing okay. If I can stay out of the office and be at client sites for most of the time, that's a good thing. Lawrence came over last night for about an hour or so. It was nice, but also hard. I only see him when his wife is out of town, which I can understand. But it's hard being with him and not being with him. He's going through some family stuff, and I can't do anything about it. I can just listen. Nothing happened with us last night, which was good. Still trying to lose this weight, but not doing very well with it. I have to start logging in my food again. It's the only way I can do it. I've been working out about 4 days a week, need to get that to 7, with doing stuff at home (kettle bells and stuff). If I could lose some of this weight, then I could run better, which would be nice.
