Workin’ LIfe

Mike and I live north of Jackson, MS (the Capitol).

I work at a large law firm (see www.butlersnow.com).  It’s a great firm with lots of new technologies to teach, variety, fun, some travel to other offices (Memphis, TN, Gulfport, MS) and I feel blessed to have so many Christian co-workers. 

Mike works for the Crom Corp. based in FL but works remote out of the home office.  He travels about 10 steps to work and loves it.  However, he does come back to Gainesville every month and travels to job sites when needed.
