You can still get one.

I got a call yesterday from the lady who helped me with the Zone paver after they denied the .com part on the last line.

The new deadline to order is December 31st. If you want it as a Christmas gift for someone they need it by December 1 at the latest.

I am happy. By then I will be back to work and will buy my paver. Just thought I'd let you all know just in case you missed the deadline.

You layed off, Hos?

Brutal times...
Yeah, I did. I have enough to get by for a pretty good stretch, but I won't buy wants in the meantime, and the paver is a want.

I'll be back to work by next week. The Company that laid me off is already struggling to figure out how to do my job. I've had several calls asking for help. I've told them just enough to make them sacred. They were foolish. Their loss.

I was layed off from April to July. There was only one other guy who could do what I did in the company and he left for another firm so they called me back, lol. It at least allowed me to finish remodeling my house. Now it's up for sale, hopefully someone buys it, and I can bail to Cali and leave THEM high and dry this time. :)

At least that's the plan.

If Tucson is on your way to Cali when you go you better stop and let me treat you to a good Mexican dinner.

I have a real good job opportunity lined up and even though it pays less than my last job if they call me back I won't go back. The reason...the new job is with a University and my kids college would be free.

Got my fingers crossed.

I also have a shot at buying a Mom & Pop Hardware store. I have to admit, I would really enjoy that.

That's cool, I work at a road construction company that has been a family business since 1924.

I'll just be glad to pay off my little shack I've had since i bought it in 2000. It's neat in that I could probably sell it for double what I paid for it.

I can relate bro.
I was let go June 25 from my job because of no work to do.
Thank God I found a new gig early in July,but the downside is that I lost my medical insurance.
Everything is cool now,but my wife and are tightening the budget because everything is more expensive at the grocery store.

Interesting. Wondering what you guys are paying for gas. I just filled up on the way home from my sister's house.

$3.09 a gallon!

That's good to hear.

Can't explain why, but the price of gas in South Jersey has been good bit below the nations average.
