Here's the Altamente.com Team minus Phil who's in Tulsa
Hi, today it's Laura. WE SIGNED THE PAPERS! Yes, we finally signed the Shareholders Agreement that made the Investment from Seed Ventures PR final. Now we need to finalize the loan which already has SBA approval and Altamente.com will be moving in high gear! Things were rough there for a while but thankfully we were able to take turns relying on each other for strength and faith that the sometimes Job-esque events would soon pass. It's funny but looking back it seems a bit exagerated to think that there were days when we just thought our trials were Biblical in proportion. I guess our perspective is being warped by the same post-partum effect that erases the pain of childbirth. Speaking of which, our dear Olaia has been God's gift to us in these difficult times. It's funny but before having her it was clear to us that we needed to prepare that a child would require so much (attention, care, expenses)and yet we couldn't have foreseen how easy She makes it for us. She cheers us on. She is an extra source of love and happiness that pours into our life and makes the journey lighter. Oh but I degress.
