Not a newbie

I didn't actually realize how long it had been since I dropped off the face of the earth. According to the message when I logged on, I was last here on March 30, 2012. Wow, three + years! To be honest I don't even know where I left off here.
In mid 2011 I got a new job and went through a rapid series of promotions. I guess they really liked my work. In early 2012 I was offered a position in Philadelphia as General Manager over a port processing facility (automotive). Essentially, I had 250 employees, 110 acres of parking lots, and $4.5 billion in annual inventory to manage. It all happened so fast. Movers packed everything I owned and it went into a storage unit. I drove across the country with 4 guitars, 2 amps, 4 boxes of shoes, a suitcase and my favorite pillow. I won't go into the details of the job but I knew it would either make or break my career. The jury is still out on that one. My contract ended in mid November and I decided to move back to California. I really missed it!
I've relocated to the San Diego area and a few weeks ago I was reunited with all of my "stuff". My little guitar shop was in three large crates and of course gobs of boxes. I've had a chance to do a preliminary inventory and get reacquainted with all of my goodies. That includes a few projects that were put on hold. I'm anxious to get back on these and get them completed!
I'm just now getting back in touch with a couple of the guitar forums that I used to frequent, including this one. I haven't done anything in the past three years related to Mosrite and my beloved Celebrities. My website is still up but woefully needs an update. I literally have twice as much information as is currently represented there. I just don't know when I will get to it. My first priority is to find a new job! Hopefully in the next few weeks I can pick up some of the projects I had in process and get them completed. I also have some other fun projects I'm just dying to do.
I sincerely hope everyone is well and I'm looking forward to diving back in.
