Knowing what we can't do (for whatever reason) is a big win.

I finally heard from the Chaplain. Actually, he called and left a VM that I did not dig out for a week. So THAT'S what happened.

Anyway, though I may not be counselling with the kids for now, I am going to be putting my MBA and business experience to work for a non-profit entity that's being formed. It will be a large residence hall for girls getting out of Juvie...those who's home-life either isn't or is just plain bad.

I've never written a for-profit biz plan that did not gain the capital funding I sought (from the commercial money market). But the non-profit world is another world of realities and rules.

At the house, I'll be writing lots of proposals and handling public relations. I'll likely be stalking the Fortune-1000 for contribution, and beating on the State Colleges for significant breaks.

OH...and I can do it all in my own time and when the kids are at skool.

I like doing something for the girls!
