Quite the Day...

The day started out good. I got a call from my mortgage broker, Kim Bean at Summit Mortgage, with the results of my appraisal (I'm doing a refinance right now). It came in higher than I expected and works out to about a 7% a year gain. Not bad.

Now, getting into work, things changed fast. Pretty quick we learned there are layoffs. Then the time of dread set in while we all waited to learn if we were cut or not. I survived, but many good people and friends didn't. Not a good day.

I did get my passport back today (sans visa). Then learned I was wanted for the sales conference in Shanghai next week. So, My passport is back in a FedEx envelope going to get a China visa. At least those are easy!
