It just vanished...

It is gone. October that is. For nearly a week and I took a look up and realized that the Animal Traks blog had not been posted to in way too long. The main reason being that my wife Vanessa and I welcomed our third child and first daughter, Kyra Skye to this world on October 15th. I took a week off from work, went back for a week and then decided to take advantage of the Family Medical Leave Act. FMLA is a a federal law that allows for up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave to care for your family.

QUESTION: So Animal Traks isn't you and David's full-time job? No, not yet. We are starting up and hoping to grow quickly. (so buy some products for Christmas gifts and give the money twice on the same purchase; once to Animal Traks and then to Rafiki and The Wild).

So now I'm off trying to do all the things that I can't do with a corporate "day" job. It's been a week now... Starting on the 2nd week and it is refreshing to wake up and be with my family and then get the day going. I'm at Starbucks right now "working". This is a new adventure for me as I haven't had an extended break from the working a "real" job since 1993, and I'm really liking the working for myself.
