I helped design and sew the seating for the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, and just recently made seating for a palace somewhere in India. Get this...there were leather pieces in the collection!!???? Aren't cows "sacred" in India? Yeah...I thought so too! LOL! *shrug* Mr. Lixy is an explosives engineer. They drill holes, pack um with powder and blow up rock.

Mr. Summer does carpentry things. Since the three hurricanes came through he is always working now. He is also in the auction stuff with me. And when times get extra tight we sell sell sell. I have even been known to sell the couch right from under us. ;) When my children don't clean their rooms I say "You might want to put things away or take them to my office for me to sell them!" LOL my son quickly grabs the items and puts them away. My daughter says to me to sell it all. Geez my kids! |
I manage commercial and industrial real estate for third party owners. I've been involved with real estate for 12 years now, but I used to run the office for a company that manufactured and distributed preportioned food for weight loss clinics.

until I can get my foot farther in the door, I am currently working a seasonal order processor job at a premiere doll company based here in WI. |
I'm a legal secretary/assistant/Girl Friday in a one-attorney operation that my boss opened in September. Before that, we were both employed by the same law firm, me for almost five years and her for almost six. Now, I'm the only one with a guaranteed paycheck, but we both benefitted with a more relaxed atmosphere, albeit with more responsibility.
Kleclere does his computer thing. :) Because we don't live in an overly-populous area, he drives about 45 each way every day to be the number one, long-term temporary employee at a computer help desk for Monsanto, the seed company. We're hoping something permanent comes this way soon. |

Slap one on me too! :D I still have my medical lab technician certification, though I haven't done that sort of work in a while. I was a pretty good blood-sucker in my day. I mostly did the testing part though. I was the technical supervisor for a microbiology reference lab, specializing in parasitology. Yummy! :rolleyes: I also used to work on helicopter avionics, been in law enforcement and been a soldier (along with the typical hair-net and name tag jobs). LOL But since I just moved, I'm still looking for a job. In the meantime, I'm trying to get things fixed up here around the house. :) |
