I`m 19 years here, this year , also slwing here , but not as much as the rest of the country...the funny thing is that since I do freelance Architectural work, home additions , remodels etc...that part has picked up, as my normal day job, as an Architect for a home builder has slowed some...too bad I cannot move my hours around...LOL.......I`d like to do some of "my work" on the slow day hours , but I better not...LOL
