Santa came early
« on: December 21, 2010, 09:21:00 AM »
No this will not be about a new bow, although there may be one in the new year. I just found full time employment again after being mostly or part time unemployed for the last year. Will be starting after 01/01/2011 and let me tell you it feels GREAT. After bills are paid there will be some new equipment added to the already crowded bow rack and arrow buckets.
 This takes such a weight off my shoulders it is unbelievable. So for those who may face the same difficulty have faith and thank God for those friends who stick around to bolster sinking ego.
Without my family and friends who saw me through this difficult time who knows what would have happened.
 Guess the point of this whole story is to have faith in God, friends and family and YOURSELf, tomorrow is another day. Now back to the woods with a clean conscience and renewed appreciation.  

To the mods-if this gets pulled I understand.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

Great news Tom!

My 2010 has been pretty grim as well (outside the great times had as 3D shoots). I just keep praying better days are ahead.
