If you haven’t already heard, I was laid off at BRIT Systems earlier this month. I’m not happy about it. I enjoyed working with the people there and the work that I was doing. The guys I worked with have been very supportive, offered to be references, and passed my contact information to others. The last two and a half weeks have been decent as far as phone interviews and one in-person interview. My motivation and spirits are high for the most part. I’ve kept a schedule similar to what I had on the days I worked from home, except now my job is to find another job. So I’m being productive; sending resumes, talking to recruiters, and networking.
Setting the depressing aside, last weekend we drove over to Lake Lavon and geocached along the Trinity Trail. The trail stretches 25.5 miles along the west side of the lake and only allows hiking and horse back riding. We only walked 2 and a third miles of it before making the hike back to the car. Our walk took us through some nice wooded areas, a farmers field, and lots of mud. Crossing the field was strange and felt like a mile walk in itself due to the mud and horse tracks which made the ground uneven. Overall on the first trip we netted 10 geocaches. We could make four more trips and still have more to find. So we will certainly be back.
