When life throws you lemons…
This Article comes from Arcanum Brazilian Jiu-jitsu Blog
Hi everyone. I just wanted to jump in and explain my absence over the last few weeks. First, I lost my job. I worked for a small business that went south (figuratively) this quarter and had to lay off most of its workforce. Bleh. For the last several weeks, I have spent every spare minute of time building resumes, making phone calls and interviewing. Result = SUCCESS: I secured a job that pays higher than my last one. I start Monday.
So, next, we got a letter from our landlords giving us 60 days notice to move out so they could move back in. So on top of worrying about a new job, I’m hurriedly scanning the horizon for a place to shelter my family and call home for the next year or two.
Change is good. Really, I like being faced with challenges and having to cope. It’s like fighting a new guy who comes into your school wearing a blue belt. You just don’t know what to expect, but without a doubt it will require you to be alert and creative. Problem is, change is also stressful. And right now it’s very…very…stressful.
I have lots to talk about, including some fun shirts that I want to share with you all. Training has been really great lately. Plus, you can expect an upcoming review of the Padilla lightweight, and an interview with Rigan Machado.
But first, I have to find a place to live. Excuse me while I go take 15 Advil.
