Well, here goes.....
   I'm doing awesome now. In fact, I can't tell you the last time I felt this good. Some major changes in my life as of late though. Fist off, I'm not with Holly anymore. I will not go into detail, but I have been absolutly miserable for 7or 8 years. I finally reached a plalce in my life and my head where I had to do something about it. And, obviously, I'm sure, I am back living in Ohio
  Other huge news.... I start a new job Monday. It's amazing! I'm still in HVAC but no longer installing. I'm outside sales rep for an HVAC wholesaler called Webb Supply. We deaal in Ruud and Ducane for residential, and Allied on the commercial end. We handle anything from rooftop units, to wire ties. In fact, we just set up a brewery in New Hampshire with a steam boiler. I get a very good flat salary, and my commision is nothing to sneeze at. I have a very substantial vehicle allowance each month, cell phone, laptop and tablet, 401k, insurance, vacation, gas card and expense acct. It's going to be a real challenge. But, at this point in my life I need that . I wasas far as I could /wanted to go with innstalls. Cool thing is, these guys came to me. THey said when the position opened up, I was the first person they thought of to fill it.  It's not going to be easy. I have a lot to learn, but the money will be well worth it.
  No brewing for me for a while. #1 all my brew gear is in Idaho. And #2  with this new job, there will simply be no time. Hell, I'll be good to drink a beer let alonne brew one.
  So, all in all, I'm good. Real good. Thank you all for the well wishes!

Glad to hear you are feeling better Weaze! Enjoy the new job, the challenge is almost always worth it, even if it means a dearth of homebrew.

The new situation sounds very promising.  Sorry to hear about the breakup but I'm glad to hear you are found a good opportunity.
