x2 Was just checking on your progress tonight and saw this thread...will be praying for your situation as well.

I've been on the verge of losing my main contract the past month or so due to the slow economy and have been kinda down in the dumps over it wondering what the plan was for me....this week I got a call out of the blue regarding a new project that could be just as good as the old one....just reminded me that there is someone steering us on our road of life and He has a plan. Take care!! ~G
