skalenfehl Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 Hello, After a long hiatus, I'm back. It's been a couple years since I've posted here regularly. Hopefully I'll still recognize some old friends. I hope to stick around this time. It's been a rough absence thanks to a floundering economy. I'm not out of the woods yet, but I'm on stable ground. In a nutshell, I was a contractor, building homes for a over a decade and doing very well when the bubble burst. Banks stopped lending, houses stopped selling and lots of people were left in the lurch holding the bag. I've since started over in the the fitness industry, an old, life-long passion as a trainer and Team Beachbody Coach. I'm 41 and in the absolute best shape of my life. Looks like my profile page was changed or reset. I lost all my friends. If you remember me or just want to get to know me better, shoot me a friend request. I may not be nearly as active as I was on here, but I'll be by more often, if that's ok. Oh, and just call me Marc. Quote
applepansy Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 welcome back :) I'm sorry the economy issues hit you so hard. I'm glad you were able to start doing something else that you love. I'm trying to talk my husband (contractor) into going back to school and doing something else. Its a tough business. Glad to see you back. Quote
