Big Day for me today! Yippee - 01-25-2008, 08:43 PM


Well first off sorry I have not posted in a while. After a crazy month and basicly being railroaded out of my business (pest control) something good happend! I got my new TDA state pest control business licence today, yea! I know some of you know my story, but in a nut shell I found out I was being ripped off by my partner and it was downhill from there. I am happy to report that I took back what I brought to the company and 1/2 of its income and started my old business North Texas Termite up again. Now 100% of the money is comming back to me except 8.25% tax, lol.. I can say i am glad its over and can start to build again and get back to my favorite thing photography.

Congratulations Chris. It's always good to watch how the Lord works things out when someone is being wronged.

Thanks Andrew, Stephen, RD and Lou!

Andrew, the only thing I don't miss about the 377 location was the rent! I am going to keep it simple this time and keep my overhead way down. The only people that make a ton of money in my business is the little one man show or the big nationwide companies.

Stephen, that cd was very helpful thanks!
