More rambling.

Our little corgi decided that we needed to talk to our neighbors more so he figured out a way to arrange that.  Knock, Knock
Me:  Hi, you're our neighbor, right?
Her:  Yes, I'm sorry to say this but one of your dogs got in our backyard and killed our birds.
Me:  Oh sonuvabitch.

Yepper, our little (25 pounds of testosterone in a 28 pound body) corgi slipped through a hole in the fence and broke into the cage that the birds were in and introduced them to death.  Great way to talk to your neighbor.  Thanks dog.  Of course we're going to replace the birds, if Petsmart was open later we would have gotten them right then.  Not his first birds to kill either.  All the others were our own chickens and ducks though.

In other news, I'm going back to work.  When the minions start school in a few weeks I'm going to start at the bottom of the mortgage loan officer totem pole.  The pay will basically pay for the daycare on the kids but it will teach me if I want to go all the way in being a loan officer.  This is like being a real estate agent, all commission and if you don't generate any leads and they don't close you don't make any money.

Since I'm already doing a blog I just might do another one advertising my services.  Make it about credit (very little), moving and possibly eco things for the house like using a push mower instead of a gas mower.  We use one and it's no more work than a gas model.  It's actually supposed to be better for the grass because of the way it cuts.

I figure that if I go for the loan officer gig then the blog will force me to write more and use some of the marketing ideas I have.  If it is lucrative enough for me to write more while my kids are in school then all the better.

First things first, I need to get all of these boxes unpacked.
