Taking matters into his own hands

Very few people knew that Russ was layed off from his job of 23 years in early December. We had come to treat the situation as a reversal of parenting roles: mom now works as much as she can while dad stays home with the kids. As much as Russ loves being home with the kids, he has decided that he really needs to get back in the game. He'd been looking for another sales job since January but with little luck. The one promising job ended up going to someone else, but Russ wasn't really disappointed. He's been mulling over the idea of opening his own garage door business. The idea has taken shape and has turned into a serious plan of attack. He recently found a work truck and is in search of a camper shell and rack. He is pretty sure he has a business name, so he's ready to apply for a new contractors license. So far everything seems to be falling into place....
