Well, August 2013 was a huge month for me. I bought a house...three bedroom, two bath, den, two-car garage, deck, privacy fence. Altogether, I outbid three others and got the house for $52,000. Also, a few weeks later, I landed a job at a maintenance supply company. My brother was working there, and they were having trouble with some guy out of North Dakota. He was updating their website, and when he put up new pictures of floor scrubbers that we sell, he left a TON of white background on the images (cut them out using Paint, lmao)...and it looked awful. My brother suggested that I come in and do it all right, and three days later, they asked me to keep coming in. That next week, they gave me the "keys" to the server, told me I was full time, and gave me lead marketing. Within the next six months, I was also doing their billing, started purchasing products for them, scheduling gym floor work, and much more. Today, I'm actually shouldering a lot of responsibilities the owners had over the years, which is a great thing because they are in their mid-50's. We sell maintenance supplies, as I said, but we also service and sell machines, sand and refinish gym floors, lay carpet, clean concrete, sell epoxy floors and bathroom stalls, etc. As it stands, we're a $7.5 million a year company with a lot of room to grow. http://4statemaintenance.com/images/floors/accc-small-1.jpg http://4statemaintenance.com/images/floors/accc-small-3.jpg http://4statemaintenance.com/images/floors/accc-small-12.jpg This summer, we refinished (101) and sanded (8) a grand total of 109 gym floors...from elementary schools to colleges, and it led to a $900,000 month in August. Busy, busy.

Got married, graduated college, moved to the South, got a teaching job, bought a house, lost 80 lbs. Big couple years!

Daddy's home. I still open up this site in one of my tabs every time I log on my laptop. It's been about 1 1/2 years since it's been really going.

^Too long. I remember when it first shut down, I keep clicking the 'OTR' bookmark I had everyday for like a month straight hoping it was going to be back up...lol. RD, can you mass-email everyone and hope they see it to come back?

I've been extremely busy, but I really just wanted to open the place back up and let you guys in to talk basketball, sports in general...whatever you'd like. It sucks not being able to communicate like we used to. I can't run this place the way I did years back, but I trust that we can make use of it. Funny enough, I've been paying the hosting bill every single month since I closed the board down, and I'm not quite sure why. I just let it charge my card, no plans on putting it back up until a few weeks ago. I'll make some changes here and there, update the board sometime, but let's see if we can hunt down and bring back the originals first. We'll be FAR less active than we ever wanted to be, but no matter what, we're still kicking.
