This is just a quick update on what's happening in the BlogRodentSphere. (Yes, I take my "branding" too seriously, sometimes!) I've been unemployed since November 9. However, by God's grace and the help of friends, Jennifer and I have not suffered from a loss of income. In fact, I've only drawn one week's worth of unemployment checks. We've managed to keep busy with enough freelance work that we've been able to make our dreaded mortgage-payments and other sundry bills relatively on-time. We're without health-insurance, though, so we are praying none of us fall ill.
