Something Personal: A Little Off Topic

Dear Readers and Viewers,

I first want to thank you all for supporting fragranceman.com. I hope you've learned something new from each article that I've post. Well, I want to share a piece of great personal news with you. Before I tell you this information, let me give you the background.

As I was posting religiously on the blog, I was dealing with many personal struggles. I was forced to close my online retail shop, lost my father and my dear young cousin, lost two properties and began to experience extreme financial difficulty. Luckily, I was able to find a decent paying job to help my finances, but it did not take full advantage of my abilities. Therefore, I was very unsatisfied with this working experience. Overall, I felt my life was going nowhere.

Before I'd experienced these challenges, my life was better overall. I had a great career as a librarian; I was making good money; my finances were stellar; I lived in a cute house; and I was surrounded by loving family and friends. I must admit that my life wasn't perfect. I was experiencing many problems with my partner, who I later left.

Now you know the background of my good news. So, let me tell you it. I recently have been hired as a librarian again! And, this opportunity is very exciting for me personally and professionally. I feel as if I've won the lottery. I can tell you that I've been waiting for news like this for a long time.

Take care,

Lawrence "Larry" aka "The Fragrance Man"
