I need to blog something because its been a day or two, and to be honest I have a lot going on in my mind. Things I have to sort through, things that seem wicked awesome and too good to be happening to me and the normal my mind is walking in the wilderness again stuff. i will sort some of that stuff out but let me throw out a quick blog on my return to work at my old store to satisfy my need to blog. Hope it holds you over till I get something better from between my ears.


Today was my first day back at work at my old store, I returned to many people smiling and being really happy to see me again. I have to be honest it surprised me.

I have a lot of people I really like there and even a couple that I call friends, but it was the other people that really shocked me. People I hadn't considered would have a positive opinion of my return that were smiling and shaking my hand, people that came from the other end of the building just because they heard I was back. I had one guy that I have know since my first stint with Lowe's that even grabbed me and hugged me. I am totally not a touchy person, but I even let that slide. I mean how can you let your phobias and hang ups interrupt someone who is that happy to see you?

I guess the main source of my surprise is that while at work, I am really an ass. I don't mean in my normal sarcastic, dry and somewhat dark humor kind of way either. I am the guy that knows the best way to get a job done and will take over any situation to get it done right. I lead by example and will call anyone out on their bullshit. I am pro company all the way, when people start bad mouthing my company I defend it. Not blindly, but I work for a great company that does treat it's employees very well.

Finally, I am the kind of person to say what is on my mind. Like it or lump it you rarely have to guess what is on my mind. Just ask, I'll tell you.

I have found a lot of people will dislike you for that, today I found out just as many will forgive it and even appreciate it, given time and absence.

I found out that you really can go home, and that there is really no place like home.
