So proud of him......






Here are some pictures that were taken while Heath was working on getting his auto sales license. It is a very lengthy and time consuming process. They are sooo picky! You have a checklist of all this stuff you have to do BEFORE you apply, like have a outside sign made. Not so bad huh???? Well except that the sign has to have certain things listed on it and the letters even have to be so many inches tall! You also have to take pictures of the inside of your office. It has to show that you have a phone, a desk & at least 2 chairs. You also have to have the hours listed on or near the door (you have to at least be open 5 days a week and for 8 hours). You also have to take pictures of all this stuff to send to them, plus TONS of paper work.....work history, our personal financial statement, the note on the building, your "floor plan" which is were you have been approved for loans to buy the vehicles, insurance, ohh and don't forget the $800 it cost to apply (then a yearly fee to keep it current), not to mention a whole bunch of other stuff. The sad thing is............what if they don't approve you?? You also have to wait at least 8 weeks to get your license in the mail & you can't really do anything until you get them, or they will fine you daily until you get it! Anyway....luckily that did not happen to him! I am so proud of him and all he is doing. We all know that Heath was born to be a salesman! I always say...."He could sell ice to an eskimo!" I keep waiting for him to trade me or sell me.....but he jokes that he can't....because he is too "upside down" with me!! lol His business is going so wonderful. We have been so blessed. It is always scary to go from a guaranteed income to ????, especially when he is the sole bread winner of 5 people, but Heath has done amazingly WONDERFUL. We have been so blessed! We both say we wish he would have done this a long time ago, but all the experience that he received in management was great too! We are all SOOOO happy that he LOVES what he does and is so less stressed! It sure makes a difference in a person when they like what they wake up to do all day. I pray that everyone could have a job like that! I want to say a big THANK YOU to all of you have prayed for us or done business with us! We really appreciate all the love and support.
