Mighty pleased ... :)
My, my, my ... I'm mighty pleased with myself and with my partner of course. We make a good team ... like two peas in a pod. After two weeks, we've packed up and all set to go. Freedom!
Looking forward to diving once again.
I'm sending off the last of the ten-wheelers tomorrow. Just for the record, April 2 to 18 ... that's how fast we did the clean-up and pack-ups. On our way home this afternoon, I was actually contemplating of putting up a website of ART's - a tribute.
One day ... someday ...
I call it independence from decadence. Freedom from a fallen kingdom.
The Artisans' Realm at Taft's Venue, a kingdom for and of the artists within us.
Welcome to Chock-Oy's Playground ... welcome that child back in all of us!

Fools Rush In ... How long did Noah take to build his ark? God created everything in 7 days.
April fool's day, I held a general meeting of what's left with my employees. Almost half of my employees went to DOLE to collect their separation pay the next day. After an hour's briefing, I sent three quarters of them home to rest while the ones normally on duty during the daytime stayed.
Friday last week, it was chaos. Cockroaches, rats, worms ... name it, we seemed to have abundance of them all considering the rotten apples that were all over. The Garden of Eden was no more and the snake devil who lured Eve and ruined it all has gone back down to hell where he belongs. It has been a gruelling week filled with exhaustion, aches and pains, frustrations and heartaches. Fowl odor and pure decadence, dirt and destruction prevailed. Adam and Eve looks at their surrounding with hope. Cain and Abel has now killed each other off. Noah is building his ark.
On the seventh day even God stopped and rested. It's Good Friday today.
Thank you for the week that has passed. Thank you for the guidance. And most of all thank you for the past 16,180 approximate days.

My Nephew's Blog: MILESTONE
Milestone. Turning point in a person's life. My nephew's blog dated April 1, 2004.
11:59 pm going 12:00 midnight of the 31st of March, 2004 was mine. I shut down my business, the one I have been operating for over ten years personally but hey, I've been in that loop since I graduated from college in 1981. That makes it almost 23 years. That's passed two decades. That's what I call a milestone and it sure is a turning point. I've had at least one in the past, when I was 24 and around this time of the year too. I accidentally found out I was adopted. My whole life including me crumbled. That's 20 years ago. I survived. And I know, this time, I will survive ... as always.
