    My New Job 

    Hey guys, Here is a repost of what I put on my blog this morning. Finally had time to make the announcement.

    During the month of February a lot has happened to me. Unfortunately I’ve been very quiet about my activity because I’ve been interviewing, meeting, and schmoozing. All leading to me at a new full time gig. Before I get to that I want to express my thanks to everyone who has helped me make connections, sent me job listings, and just been cool while I was laid off and temporarily unemployed. As Brogan would say, you are the Rockstars! Seriously.

    Loud Mountain

    The new job is Marketing Project Manager for Loud Mountain in Green Tree. They are a growing company focusing on relationship recruiting and staffing services. Currently we are focusing on jobs in the technology sector but plan to expand soon.

    Primarily it is my job to spread the word about Loud Mountain so you will be hearing more from me in the future. As for now I suggest you visit the website to learn more about the service and while you are there you can join the site for free.

    My Loud Mountain contact information is below:
    email: norm.huelsman [at] loudmountain [dot] com
    twitter: @loud_norm
    facebook profile

    I’ll be adding other social networks and a new blog soon, so keep an eye out.

    iTwixie

    But wait that’s not all. I’ve also joined iTwixie as an Art Director to help them take some significant steps toward growth and future funding rounds. I really don’t have a lot to say about my role there other than I am really excited to be a part of the team. As the site grows I’ll share updates with you.

    So again thank you to everyone who had my back as I was laid off. People have told me over and over that getting laid off is the best thing that could happen. So far I can agree that I’ve been able to find new opportunities in unexpected places.

    If you guys hadn’t heard yet, Sam placed 4th at the district tournament and that qualifies him for state! Once again he is taking Mom and I on an adventure we never thought we would go on, and we can’t wait!! He got there with a couple sweet wins. In one of his matches on Saturday he pinned the guy with one second to go in the match! It was awesome! He also has some nice quotes in the papers. The chronicle is the best. I think you can see them on chroniclet.com, but they might not be up yet. The state tournament is Thursday, Friday, and Saturday this weekend. I’ll try to keep you all updated while we’re there!

    Thanks for the welcome Dale. As I told Norman when he offered to set up Dave and the boys on this blog – if there’s on here then I can’t talk about them!!! Perhaps I’ll change my mind.

    Video about the new theme 

    I still have some work to do in order to make this theme ours but the functions supersede the look for the moment. A guy who works on wordpress recommended the switch. Here is a short video about the new theme.

    My basketball season is officially over. I’m pretty sure I put on a convincing sad face for the coaches and the team. I’m headed to the doctor to get my cast on Monday. I’ll try to put a picture on the blog of my very first cast. Maybe mom should put this in my baby book.

      I kept my first cast (it was neon orange) after it was cut off for years. I don’t recommend doing that. What are they casting on you?

      • Hannah 10:49 am on February 28, 2011 Permalink | Reply

        They are casting my foot for sure, but I’m not sure how far up my leg they will go. The stinky thing is now that because Sam is going to state I have to hobble up 3 levels to our seats. Looks like I’m getting a workout.

    • Norm 4:45 pm on February 27, 2011 Permalink | Reply

      Good luck. I remember when I had casts on both my feet. Oh wait no I don’t. I probably blocked the memories because it was so awful.

        Thanks. Hardly any of you are here and you’re still making me scared of the doctor. It never ends! :)

          Hee, hee! Carl, I remember that Norm cried like a baby all the time in the hospital. Finally they had to call in a pediatrician! lol

      I like it. The new message window on the dashboard looks easy to use.

      Yep got a good deal on this one too. Selling my old one. I offered it to dad but he didn’t seem to want it.

        Nice wheels. Looks like a good’un.

        Yeah, got 3 vehicles already. They won’t all fit in the driveway.

    Phone is locked and loaded 

    after almost a week of being phoneless I am now plugged back in. long story short my old phone just stopped working, and then i had some terrible customer service from verizon. Lucille, maybe we can get some kind of break for this whole inconvenience haha

      Carl, make sure you put the tin can and the long string into the recycling.

    I may know what I’m doing now!!! 

    Norman – I watched the video.  Hopefully I’m posting correctly now.
