Meet Carter

Well, it’s been a while since I have been here and I’m sure most of you have lost interest, thinking I have as well. Well that couldn’t be farther from the truth. The fact is the past few months have been a roller coaster ride of good and bad times. I’ve had so much on my mind I’ve had even a problem putting it down on paper, let alone on the blog.  The F**king economy finally made  stop here in Denver and all the hard work we put into my job i-amTV came crashing down when the company was acquired by California company, NTN Buzztime, and with a fizzle…i-amTV was no more and so was my job. This was a tough pill to swallow (unlike all the other pills).  I found myself with a major confidence issue, not only with myself, but my work experience was all over the place. Where was I going to find a job that with a marketing/media sales background (probably the two worst hit job markets just outside of Real Estate and Car Sales…hmm what to do?)  How about I go sell some cars? Thanks to my brother, John, I found myself pimpin new Hondas at one of the best Honda dealerships in Denver, Kuni Honda (www.kuni-honda.com)! And to say the least, I am really digging it. (HERE COMES SHAMELESS PLUG.. .If you know of anyone looking to buy a car, you now have a place to send them or bring yourself!) Of course I started in August, the best month the car industry has had in years and it was great, but with good comes  a little bad and like a Kick ass New Year’s Eve party comes one hell of a hang over on New Year’s Day…and that would be the month of September in the car business.  But I feel that I have entered a great opportunity in my life to learn something new, get world class sales experience and just work my ass off (60+ hrs a week).  So that has been a snapshot of where I have been.  How about my little Boo and Deni.  Carter and Deni have been loving time together and both have stepped up their game, while I am off at work.  I am sad I don’t get to see them both as much as I used to, but in a way I think this new challenge is good for us all.  There are going to be struggles, but we continue to forge on, as we must.

Carter has been doing good. He had a little bump in the road that led us to a couple of nights in the hospital (damn colds), but he powered through and so did we, as we must.  I am really proud at how he has been getting a little stronger and here is a really fun video of him taking some of his first steps in his walker….
