First Post In Like 3 Years

We had some big contracts that kept us really busy the last 3 years. We were traveling all over Alberta and the Western bit of Saskatchewan, to wire up new houses.  The gig is pretty much up I think.  Pretty sure the contractor is going to go bankrupt with the mandetory new home warrenty they introduced this year.
I got a sales call to put me back on the internet, and figured I should go for it. "they have made lots of other Electricians lots of money" they must be experienced. And they charge enough, I expect I should get a lot of work from it.  Wow what a joke.  I get more calls from people that tell me I am going about advertising all wrong, but they would like to take my money and "advertise the right way for me".  I am continuing to work with a google ad company, but I can see the relationship won't continue much into the future.  So I am unearthing my electrical blog to do my own add campains and as long as I am there the old Smith Family in Alberta might as well be resurected too.
I would love it to be all about my boy but it probably won't be.  Can't have a post without so much as a picture, so here is a picture of  Dade, just over 2 years old now.  He loves doing selfies and sending them to mom at work.  This is his fake selfie smile. 

 Day care didn't really work out here for us.  We have had a nanny now for 3 weeks. Just since we purchased the our first investment property.  Which makes us extra poor currently.  Hopefully we can aquire some more financing and do the new house up right, for a beutiful transition from aged 50's to modern beuty.  I will be sure to be posting about that on here with reno pictures.  But so far there was no money to upgrade anything, just a mad rush to get the main floor rented so the mortgage didn't bounce.
I guess I need to buy a video camera, because my phone, besides not having enough memory, doesn't usually successfully plug into the computer.  So I actually have to email myself photos to put them on the computer, so low tech.
