apologies for my disappearance, I have been so busy with my job and life, just haven't been as active here anymore. Most furry's are active on vrchat, i've been mostly playing solo games and get on vr here and there.

After 7 years I'm going to AC! finally a con after so long since I had my house i need to get away and see furry's again it's been so long. MFF not sure if I'm going back to, it's just to pricey rooms are hard to get, I may go to the one in Texas one day. Other then that nothing new with just work work, bills home stuff and making my goal 9 years maybe 10 gonna try to have my house paid off, the way things are going out there. I haven't been able to post art stuff anymore due to cost of commissions but I do have a few i can post at some point.

Other then that I'm just surviving and hope everyone is too. I met alot of new furs threw vr and some I knew moved on. I understand people come and go, now I'm just trying to get threw this year, I thought 2025 would be a good one but seems it hasn't.

All I can say now, I'm just not as active as I use to be but here I am letting everyone know I'm still going.

Well as you all know or now knowing this, Dragoneer the owner of FA passed recently. I found this out this morning from a friend of mine and of course was shock to hear bout it.

So here's what I want to say now. As of now we dunno what's gonna happen with fa. Over the years and months I haven't been active here and I don't have another fur account anywhere else due to just keep up with one place and work. I've been wanting to get art and other commissions in time but it will have to wait till further notice.

If FA does go down, maybe I find something that my friends use, otherwise it's been a very long run on FA and it was the one place I use my journals and pictures most. Keep thoughts to Drag's family and himself cause if it wasn't for him, FA would have not brought me the friends nor things I would of done here.

So thank you Dragoneer, may you rest in peace among the stars, you were a huge impact in the fandom and to keep this site going for people to post journals and there art pictures. I hope you find the light or already are following the light in the after life. You will be missed by thousands.

Be safe everyone, have to see what will happen, we need to give it time, I'm sure things will work out, cause I know alot of people use FA still for support and art. Alot has happen today.

Hello everyone, updating you all that the treatment was a success, though when I got home I was in so much pain. The amount of pain is so rough I couldn't get comfy nor enough sleep. It's just something you don't want to deal with, not to mention I was vomit alot cause of the pain.

Anyway after today I'm feeling much better, it's rough on ur first day cause ur body and kidney is in so much shock that all u can do is rest drink little water and just bare with it. I hope non of you get it. Avoid salty foods, cut back on pop, energy drinks, maybe even coffee, coffee isn't on the top list but can cause it. I'm just sharing this cause it is not a fun healing process. I know there other surgerys that are worse then mine, but still mine wasn't pleasant.

So I'm gonna go rest back up, wanted to get back and thank everyone who comment on my treatment, it means alot.

Hey everyone, just an update I’m going in for my kidney treatment this morning and will be recovering for the rest of the week from work.
I’m looking forward to getting rid of it and getting back to feel better and back to life.

I’ll be in touch when I can.
Thank you everyone for the wishes.

So yeah 6 mos since last update I don't post much and we all know life is tough then before everyone's just trying to make ends meet so to anyone who reads this just updates one me.

Work has change, were expending and it's gone worse then before. Hiring more people and now they have a new system that isn't working right so for 2 mos there trying to resolve this because it makes the shipping process slower. Then on the other side of the building manufacturing is expanding getting more machines in there so it's been a mess cause there moving everything which includes moving pipes around too so it's been chaos at work. Over I've been ok with work but it is getting much busy.

Now my health update, something is going on with me it's nothing serious but bad enough. I just got back from a urologist, for the past 2 mos I've been trying to pass a kidney stone which runs in are family. Two I had back in the years I was able to pass with meds. This time it's different, it's stalled and not moving and not even big enough but to point I'll have to get a ultra sonic blast treatment. Those of you will know what this is if you had kidney stones but to those who don't, what this treatment does is to break the stone into smaller pieces so it can pass the the kidney faster to the bladder allow it flow out of the system better. I'll be knock out cause it is painful treatment so when I wake up I'll be sore for a few days. The stone has to come out I can't be missing work anymore due to how busy we are in and the pain
of a kidney stone is just god awful painful I wish no one to experience.

So that said and done I'm hoping to hear back soon when to get this treatment done. Otherwise I've been keeping low in my furry life. I'm still around. It's a new change for everyone in this world, people are busy with friends and jobs and just making ends meet. I need to go back to a con here soon it's been forever though I know now cons are just getting very pricey. I don't even post art much cause even art's not cheap, don't even wear my suit much, suits aren't cheep either. Most people are on vr these days which I can see why.

I also been putting alot of money into my house and my health job and house come first then cons. I hope to return though, even if it's one con a year.
Till then do what you can out there to makes ends meet and keep fighting the good fight. Again I'm not as active on here much but I do when I can. Alot of friends I once knew moved on or just to busy with there life's and it's understandable.

Take care everyone and be safe out there, thx for reading and I'll be ok. I'm so ready to have this stone gone, no one and I wish upon no one to ever get a stone cause it's just so painful.
I'll be in touch with my situation and all. Take care

First, I want to wish everyone a Happy New Year and hopefully your all doing well and being safe. We know that every years seems to be getting tougher or maybe better for others, hopefully 2024 will improve things for everyone.

Lately I know I haven't posted much anymore. Over the years being on fa and the fandom people are just busy with there life's, trying to take care of them self's and being on VRchat more to social then media.
One thing I can say bout 2023 I was able to get alot of renovations done to the house. There is only a few more renovation's left to do, soon I'll hope to be at a con in 2024. It's been dang since 2019 or 18. I'm over due but with the prices being up I have to save alot to go. Now for 2024 I plan to finish the house and save what I can and soon I need to get a 401k going with my job.

It's been a long ride with the house, I'm happy how it's come since I bought it. Change's your mood when you come home to see the hard work and love put into it.
I'm happy, but I still could improve my skill's and cook more meals. My job and house keep's me on my feet that I put them up when I get home.

Fact I'll be 42 in July I'm close to mid age, I felt the changes of the age, I know it's a number but I do think bout my life and what I want to do before the years pass more.
That's it really for me bout my life here. Be safe everyone, fight the good fight, hang in there and hopefully 2024 will look up for everyone. I'm sure everyone is ready for change.

Where to start it has nearly been a year, well as you all know I started a new job bout a year now, it's going well, just got a raise and did some major work to my house. I got new vinyl flooring at long last and got rid of the tile. The house is really coming along, it feels like home.

So nothing really new to say fact I don't get on here much, been in the fandom for since 2005, years passed I'm running out of things to say, most of people I knew moved on but I still have 4 close friends among other new furs I made. It's been 4 years since I been to a con, I'm hoping to go back, issue is some of the furs I use to room with don't go to cons much due to life changes. Also fact I'm gonna need to save money. Cons are not cheap, hotel rooms are high and yeah everything is pricey.

So, I am still around, just don't social much here well as much I use to. Though everyone is pretty busy these days, playing VR, twitch or living there life's.
Been wanting to post this journal months ago but life just keep me so busy. I hope everyone is doing ok and staying safe. Taken care of yourself and getting out of debt is very imported.

Really all I have, nothing new just living the dream and all is well here.

Missing the cons and friends, fursuiting, it's been 4 years. I'll hope to attend a con again once things settle down.

Take care everyone.

So I've been meaning to get back on here since from being sick I've been much better for the passed 4 weeks. So wanted to post before 2022 ends here.

Will say 2022 was a rough year but not bad, lots of changes in my life, house work and a new job. Mainly was the house work and getting this new job which has been keeping me busy as most jobs do.
My family has been getting so big so it was hard to do Xmas together plus due to the winter storm that hit in the US that day.

Anyway over all a short journal bout 2022, wasn't bad was bit rough with a few friends I lost and moved on, house work, but the nice thing bout 2022 was I did get alot of work done for the house, payed off some bills, and looking forward to a new year in 2023 and a fresh start. 2023 I plan to get more work done with the house and maybe a con not 100% yet cause I do need new paws my hands and feet are finally going bad.

So I do wish everyone to be safe, hoping 2023 will be great and less stressful for everyone.

Happy New Year!!!

Hey everyone, so with MFF starting it's good thing I didn't plan to go cause, since Monday I've been fighting off a nasty flu virus which is causing me to miss work this week. Top of that I didn't have money to blow at mff starting with this new job.

Anyway nothing new here just working on getting better so I can go back to work and start saving again. Thanksgiving was nice, got to spend time with family. I may try mff next year I dunno I've been really focusing on the house. I do miss being around people.

So anyway guys have fun to those at MFF and be safe everyone. This flu is everywhere. keep up with your vitamin C's and rest. I'm hoping to get better soon, this has been a rough week..

I've been so crazy busy but I was meaning to let everyone know a month ago I just started working at a new job. A factory that makes bebe guns and 9mm guns. I just work as a maintenance worker, so I just keep the place looking good. It's better pay with benefits and so far there treating me good. My old job at the airport was getting to much. Working to much in the heat alone was just unbearable, with no benefits and decent pay. Yeah it was time to move on.

To the people who were impacted but hurricane Ian, hope everyone is ok, I heard was pretty bad down there.

So really nothing new going on, got a new mattress for my back, it's helping the back but still lacking sleep. I just think there's to much going on. On top of that, it's getting difficult to get keep up with fa and other social media. Slowly I think it's getting to the point everyone will move on or just post here and there. I haven't had time to spend money to get art or suit pictures, course think most people moved on focusing there money on bills. Which at this point of life, is a good ideal to do. Get debts pay off if u can even if it will take a while. Way things are going, prices still going up.

Cons won't happen for a while, it's been since 2019 before I went to a con, might be another year or two. I just want to get this house were I want it and see where things go. Rooms are hard to get at MFF and some of the friends I use to room with don't go anymore so it's hard to get a room.

Other then that, nothing really new. I need to get new paws, there getting old, and as fair as getting a new body, dunno. It's gonna be a long time if I get another redone body with OFA, that or go with someone else to get the body done. Who knows I don't wear my suit much I keep him looking like new.

All I can really say is, I miss the old days. Can't go back in time, have to enjoy what we have now and the time we have.

So anyway just wanted to do an update, hope everyone is doing alright.
Be safe everyone.

Hello everyone I have been so busy here with my life, so much has happen here, work, house and unfortunate having issue's with old friend's I had to move on from. I wanted to update that I'm ok it's my birthday and yes I turned the big 40. I know I'm getting older getting gray but I've always been a gray muzzle I mean look at my fur, it's gray, been gray so yeah. Haha

I'll hope to get a better update right now there is just so much going on, I have a tech coming today before I leave on my birthday trip, fridge is isn't working right, ordered a new garage door 4 months ago still on back order and family birthday's, work, so it's crazy, I hope everyone is ok and being safe and thank you all for your time.

:)

So it's been what three months, so much been going on, still working on the house, my garage door broke just with in a month I got my new granite counter tops so now I got a new garage door coming, so mostly I've been focus on my health house and work.

Also to keep this the a minimal, I've stepped back from the furry fandom just to get my house where I want it, and plus since it's getting pricey out there everyone's been busy with there life's making ends meet I just go to work and come home. Cons will have to wait, few furs I knew went to cons don't go anymore so I'll have to find some to room with. So I'm still around, just so busy as the years passed. Can't even afford art I want, some point I want to get a second body and paws for cons only, even today fur suit's are so pricey.

Anyway I just wanted to post a short journal, I know not many use fa much but It's all I'll use. I'm doing well over all and hope everyone is as well.

Be safe everyone

So as I stated in my last journal I'm not on much. Ever since 2020, me getting the house and fixed up, work and life I get to busy. I know most people are doing what they can, drawing there art, working to make ends meet, not able to see friends much etc. For me I'm doing well what I can, house is coming along nicely. It's getting closer to being what I wanted to be.

Been thinking, I'll soon be 40, and yeah I'm starting to see the side effects change. I'm getting more tired, my back comes and goes, my right wrist aches, and when I get my benefits I'll get my wrist looked it. No signs of numbness maybe just needs a adjustment from a chiropractor or maybe sign of a development arthritis. I'm trying to stay off ibuprofen as much I can unless I really need it. There saying to much isn't healthy so I just do my stretches and not be at the pc all day and drink lots of water. Also getting on a balance diet food helps strengthen the body and mind.

I do miss being at the cons, but now and these days it's just getting pricey out there. So till I get the house where I want it and save enough I'm lucky to go one con a year. Also giving the cycle of life of the pandemic to calm down and it may never and if it does it can be years yet, giving me the time to catch up with life. I mostly just work go to store for my supply's and go home. I use to fish alot and do more activity's now I just go for walks and go fish with a local fur I known.

Though it has become more complex in life as people are busy more then ever and making there ends meet. I do well for what I do for work, and it is easy on the mind just more work on the body which means I'll need to rest often.
I off and on will get decent sleep or not enough, more like 6 - 5:30 hours sleep on work days 7-8 even 9 on days off. It catches up I can feel it, sleep is just very imported to the mind and body, I know it can be hard for people out there dealing with there sleep.

So that's bout it for me, my goal now is to recover the money I just spend these past months and needing to get new paws for the suit, there getting rather old. Continue to be safe out there and on the roads. Who knows what's gonna happen down the road. I do hope I can get out there and see more of the world, as many regretted wishing they did more back in the days before 2020 hit.

Thanks for reading and keep your head up out there.

Yeah it's been a long time so here's whats going on.

Yeah I'm sore I've been trying to pass a kidney stone. I'm ok right now, pain comes and goes nothing very bad to point I don't need to go to the hospital, just drinking alot of water and resting.
They're no fun to those who know this kind of pain. As of right now I might of passed it, not sure, but I'm feeling ok atm. I had one in the passed and it was quick this one taken more time to pass. So Yeah I'm doing ok.

moving on here, I've been just so busy that I don't get on here much anymore. working around the house, getting my first new shed this Thursday, had to break down the old one, it was rotten and old.
So yeah I'm still around just you know, we all know this just making ends meet getting depressed bout the world some but mostly focusing on my goals and house.

It's getting hard these days as the years trend, missing the cons, friends I want to hug and cuddle....just seems to be getting hard. Anyway so yeah I'm just not on much I don't social media much I use to...I just see that people are trying to make there ends meet and some of the people I knew moved on. I'm still around just not active here much. so figure I leave a message to let you all know who's reading this that I'm alive and well,
but am missing the cons and friends. Budget is tight some so cons will have to wait. My house is gonna be nice when it's done.

I hope everyone is staying safe, keep your chin up, "I'm trying to here" most imported keep your friends close and faith up. It's tough out there but stay focus and will get threw it. Roll with the punches

~Kenova~

Yeah been a looong while since I've been here.

Not getting very active these days since house and work been crazy. So but yeah tomorrow is my berfday. Folks coming to vist go eat and just hang out. Doing more renovations on the house as I go, just spending and more spending on the house though it's coming along nicely.

Anyway yeah nothing really to new with me, just another day old world still crazy, people I knew moving on with there life's, getting to that point of life. I hope everyone is doing well out there with this world being up and down.

Only thing new with me is that were getting new people as others as moved on to there new jobs. I'm soon to hopefully get a raise and a bonus for my hard work. Cause yeah I tackle most of the work alone, will we get someone trained, well for mostly up front of the counter. I still work alone....been thinking bout the job. I'm grateful for it, job's a job most jobs get boring after a few years and the feeling that your ready to move on. With what's going on, and work being close to home, I attend to hold on to it till I see what's gonna happen out there. Then again if I stay here long enough, regardless how old the job gets there people who had there job for years. Job works for me, stable hours, might be risky to make a move.

Anyway just wanted to do a update here since it's been 5 months. I'm also at one point needed new set of paws, mine are getting old, but again money lol I like to get indoor and out door paws and hand paws. indoor paws be fun with the paw pads.

Anyway that bout it, stay safe everyone.

Yeah it's been a while since my last update.

What's new with me? Well few things, been ordering a few things I got for the house to make it more cozy here, also been busy working around the house and vising my mom more often. She slipped and strain her leg, lucky she didn't impact her bone. She's feeling better but had to stay off her leg for a while, her bones are very brittle so there known to break easy. She has to be extra careful, she is taken pills and other stuff to keep her bones strong. Just glad she didn't break anything again, that would of been devastated.

The other part with me well...I've been wanting to get some art, some of my kinks and just normal art but something big is bout to happen with my house. Being a house owner I'm bout to make another major expense. A few days ago my heater was acting up at times the heat won't come on and times it did and the temp was gonna be 0 this week so I called a tech to look at it and well shocking news. He said the components on it is corrode, the igniter is old, there is mold on the insulation that goes up into my ducts, very dusty "which was one of the things I called him out to clean" and the furnace is bout 24 years old, been with the house since 97. Getting to the point, it's on it's last leg. I wasn't happy to hear but again this is part of owning a house. The good news though, he cleaned it up and did a few other things the heat is working well and has been keeping up with the heat in the house. So now he's the big part, I'm gonna choose to get a new system installed because he also pointed out the AC unit outside is older then the furnace. So I'm getting two new units soon once I get a called saying they got the parts ordered. This is costing me some serious money, which lucky I have been saving over the years into my emergency money.

I was gonna get new flooring but that'll have to wait and so will the art. Prior one with house comes first, before cosmetics. The best part now is once this is done, the house is greatly renovated and improving it's value. New roof/gutters when I first moved in, and a new AC/Heat unit system that will now last for many many years.

Like I said, I had everything looked at very carefully to avoid getting new units but these units are very old, getting many many components to repair is costly and hard to find. There also just temporary fixes, I just decided to just get the new units. I know most of the time they try to get you to buy a new system but this guy was fair and wasn't trying to get me to get a new system but he did point out and showed it to me saying there old, even my step dad look at it just to get a second option, he agreed that it's time to replace.

Anyway that said, that's what's been going on. Hopefully everyone is staying warm and safe. It's gonna get very cold here soon.

Take care everyone.

So I know it's been a while but now I have a big update.

Before that, my home is coming along great, my walk in shower is done and the bathroom has been renovated now I just need to save, for reason's..which I'm bout to tell you.

So I get called in the office and there's are distract boss. I couldn't believe what I heard and sadly it's happen...I have a 30 notice, I will not be working for my job anymore. Reason why...cause the company is trying to save money due to "yes we all hate it" covid 19. It has cause a lot of damage and money to the company and not just the US but everywhere. Kay the lead manger is now the private local manager. My company will be there but not a crop anymore. Kay and her family will now work for the local company.

So I start worry...cause I just got my house in July...thinking what will I do. I'm getting a severance pay which is nice but now I have to get another job and I lose the benefits.
So now I wonder what will I do, well I'll tell you all right now I already have a plan.

Kay sat with me asking what would I do, I told her I dunno, I was tearing up some because my home, it's close to work and I just put a lot money into it, I don't want to lose it.
So withing a few mins she told me "can you keep a secret?" I look up and said, "A secret?" She nodded....I looked around and looked back at her and said, "of course I would but why a secret?"
She Tell's me "I don't want anyone else to know but I'm offering you a full time job with us" I pause and I started to teared up and said "I can't thank you enough..."

So I'm gonna be working for her company for now on. I can't say how grateful I am right now, she told me I was such a hard worker and would not offer me this job if I couldn't do it. She trust's me, they need someone to take care of business.

That just...made my day. So by Jan 9th depending how soon I can get back to work, I'll won't be working for the other company no more but only with her, might be off for a few weeks but for now this is sudden and I'll get more info as the days pass.

I just want 2020 to be over, this has been a very hard year on me and for everyone. I wish nothing but the best for everyone. This all for now, I'll be in touch and thank you everyone for reading and your support, be safe, stay strong and keep working hard. Hard work DOES pay off.

~Kenova~

Hope everyone is well, I know times are still tough. I'm starting to feel it as well. Slight depression, anxiety's, etc. For the most part I'm just working and working on the house. Did some upgrading here and there and next year I plan to get new flooring then the tile floors. This year I'm getting my master bathroom upgraded cause it's a bad shape and gonna get a new walk in shower installed. Gonna get stone like material installed with a nice design pattern. It's a very small bath room but it's gonna look nice when it's done.

Anyway like I said, I hope everyone is well. These days I'm running out of things to say and feel like I'm not gonna be around here much. The way life is going and my new life with the house, everyone's busy and everyone's trying to make ends meet. I can only hope that over the year's it will get better. A really close friend once told me that before, it's get better even though it doesn't seem like it is.

Other then that, only thing I can say is I'm looking forward BeastStars Season 2. It's really good I like the design of the characters, how the story is going, the acting. Gonna be exciting, also excited for the ps5 and the remake or redone version of Demon Souls.

Well, you all take it easy, one day at time, keep plugging.

As always thank you for reading and staying in touch.

Well, yesterday I found out that Chadwick Boseman who play's as the Black Panther died of cancer Friday the 28th at the age of 43.

Alot of you might of already known this, but still...gees....we all know at this point that we can say 2020 is the worst year ever and were just ready to get it over. Who knows what will happen now if the movies will continue of Black Panther, but all I can say is he was great. Nothing will replace him, very sad to see him go. :(

May he Rest In Peace..

Been meaning to get back on here, it's been crazy but I'm all moved into my house. Got alot of lights replaced some painting done, but there's more to do. I have yet to get the roof done before winter but I got time for that still. I'm liking the house, it's what anyone can ask for. It's nice area, quiet, very clam here.

All that's left is getting rest of painting done, put pictures up, finish the back yard and get the roof done. At some point I'm gonna get my master bathroom redone cause it's old in there needs work.
Over all very happy with the house, it was worth it.

Wanted to to update on this too. Works crazy for me, being the only person out in the bay, it's crazy how busy car renting can be in this time of pandemic. Crazy out there as it is, most of the time I just go to work, go to the store to get what I need and go home. With cons closing, baseball games being postpone, some casinos closing, jobs closing, it's getting rough. It's effected the world beyond means, it's also effect people too.

I just wanted to update that I was doing ok. I'm gonna continue to be busy here though with my new home. In all honesty, at some point, I'll want to post something here that's been on my mind but for now this was just an update. Continue to be safe out there, stay strong, and keep positive. I know it seems useless right now...it feels like it'll never end or when it will end. We dunno, and I dunno when I'll get back to a con or when anyone will. Even if this pandemic wasn't around I wasn't gonna be able to go to a con for a while.

In the mean time, keep your friends close, keep in touch with your family. Were all facing it...right now...hoping this will come to an end and see the world go back to normal.

All we can do now is hope. Be safe everyone
~Kenova~

And so it begins..

I’m officially a home owner, it’s late but wanted to update that I’m moving tomorrow but half of it. I have a lot of cleaning and painting to do, paper work and change of address. I’ll be all moved in by next week cause of work and stuff but I’ll get most of my big stuff moved. From here, I’ll be very busy for a long while. I’ll be sure to be in touch and wanted to thank everyone for the support and best wishes.

Now it’s time for a new adventure, a fresh start. In the mean time I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe. I’m off to bed cause it’s late, but thx again and keep focus on your goals.

Well It's time I got this out, I'm about to have a huge responsibility yet a huge goal that alot of people are doing right now. I had to make a leap of faith and this will change my life for the good.

I'm going to be a first time house owner. Yes I got approved for a house that I looked at and in the process of getting it. Over the years of not going to cons and other things I've been saving. With everything going on right now in the world, yes it's a scary move but the house market was good and thought it was time. I may not go to a con for a while yet, I'm paying my car off this month and getting a new life. I also don't like where I live anymore, It's gotten pricey and it's noisy with the people around.

I'm also gonna be 38 next month. I want to move on in my life, I want be able to pay the house before I retire if I plan to keep this house or move in 6 years it depends whats happen out there. For what the house offered and what it looked like I jumped on it. It's with in my means to afford it and paying less then what I pay rent. I'm ready for the responsibility for whats coming in the future. I want to learn bout having a house, how to fix it and how to improve it over the years, but more importantly...having a peaceful life.

It'll be a while till I go to a con, I have to budget and see what I can afford, one con a year for sure. My job's pick up, it's getting busier and hopefully I'll get to train someone soon.
I never thought I get a house, but it's happen, and I'm excited but nervous some. It really does get better in life, when you at least expect it. I hope this happens for everyone else, hope you all get what you want what your working so hard for. Don't lose hope, all is not lost even if it does feel that way. I've been there and so have many, you just have to keep strong.

I'll be very busy but I'll be in touch when I'll get the house and when I'll start moving in. After that I'll be gone for a while getting my stuff back up.

Thank you all very much for your support, as always be safe, sleep well, take care of your self's and keep putting up the good fight.

So it's been a while I was meaning to get to this few weeks ago so I'll just get to the point. About three weeks ago, I was furlough from work. With the airports not being busy and with the Covid 19 still going on who knows when I'll be back to work but yes I'm still employed. It's gonna be a mess when I get back to work but so will everyone else. There's really nothing more I can say but wanted to update that I'm doing ok and did my unemployment two weeks ago. I hope everyone else is well and being safe and hang in there, stay safe for those who are still working.

So I was on my way home from visiting my folks around 1 pm, then I got a text from my team lead saying the hours are gonna change again but this time for good, he's retired now. Cause of the on going fight with the virus were gonna be slow for the next few months and he was gonna retire then, so he decide to do it today. He did it for me to give me the hours so I can keep going in my life, to paying my car off, and have a job still. There wasn't enough hours for the both of us to stay. So now I run the shop, and will be in charge as the next team lead. Till this situation in the US clams down and gets better, I'll be working alone till it picks back up and ready to hire another FT worker to train. I'm bit nervous but looking forward to this. To me, it's just another adventure to a new beginning. I done this work for three years now and I finally have job security.

This also means more responsibility's not as much as I use to do. I want to thank everyone for there support. I'll be in touch here and there how things go but for now and a long while, it's gonna be slow at work.

Thank you again everyone and be safe out there.

Well for one, we all know whats going on out there, the Virus.

So far with work, we had a temp coming in but he didn't show up but right now were not even worried bout it a temp at this time. Work has slow down enough were there's like 3 cars coming in and 3 cars going out. It's only a matter of time now when and if the air port close up. Were getting very little people on these flights so it's possible we could close. The next situation that can happen is were one of us comes in, or unless they shut down the airport. Been washing my heads after every car I service on, now we use some disaffect spray to sterile the car inside. So as of right now it's...just when it will happen.

My thoughts to this, yeah I'm concern but I'm not gonna panic. It's bad yes but we all need to not panic. Though I can understand cause well we have bills to pay and rent and not many are working maybe even more. I won't get into much politics bout it cause we all know bout it and what's it doing, just thinking it's getting a little over board from what many are saying in this world.
We just need to remain calm, prepare what you can stock and get ready for a long ride. Play video games, watch movies whatever you need to do till this passes.

Keep your hands wash at all times, be safe everyone...will get threw this....this is not gonna be forever, it's not the end of the world, it's just a big huge mess slowly getting cleaned up.
I just wanted to say my two cents and let people know that I'm doing ok.

Be strong everyone, stay positive, this will all pass in time.
