Stalled.

Third week of January. Fourth? Third. Whatever. Not getting out of house much. After a fabulous lunch/coffee up near the airport, I came back on 280, and poked down the side streets by Crystal Springs Res. and tried to hit some stores in Pala Olto (closed on Mondays.)

Went and talked with my Mom, who floored me. After asking about progress, and listening carefully to my detailed listing of what's up, she told me she'd fund the teacher's certificate if I wanted that.

Wow. Just...wow. That's like $20K, minimum...at Santa Clara. Wow.

I don't need her to fund it, I just need to either go for it, or go back into the sales game with the intent to win. And I can't decide which.

IMNSHO, but based on knowing you reasonably well for sixteen and a half years, BACK AWAY FROM THE SALES GAME. Slowly, slowly, I think it's just sunning itself, but you just can't risk a major bite. Good, far enough away, now -- quick like a bunny -- run as far and as fast as you can.

Glad I could help.
