Even More Busy in Arivaca

I have a new job… a real job! Okay, I use the term “real” facetiously because so many people equate having a real job with working for someone else. I’ve been working for myself for a few years now and probably work harder than I did when I was working for someone else. But to get to the point, my new job is working an overnight position (10 p.m. to 6 a.m.) taking care of a developmentally disabled person here in Arivaca who needs someone awake overnight. This is not going to be easy for me because as I get older it becomes more difficult to stay awake overnight, but it is a temporary position and a foot in the door of this company where I hope to do mostly day programming/teaching work.

I am still doing web design and marketing work and since we moved back I have had an increase in business and interest. Fortunately, the awake overnight position also gives me some time to work on web design. I also have several other projects going and the biggest one is the formation of a group called Arivaca Local. I talked about this in my last post and things have continued to progress. It is not a formal organization, but rather a group of interested and motivated people. I have set up a forum at www.ArivacaLocal.org to help get conversations going and so far it is working well. As more people use the website and meet with each other, more benefits from this group will be felt.

I took some pictures from a local farm and you can see all of them at:
