I am so blessed that I can be a stay at home/homeschool mom. I homeschool my daughter who is in 3rd/4th grade. James became a CPA and worked for Graham Resources until they went under. After that, he went into homebuilding. As you can imagine, his business is really booming after Katrina. My son Alex says he is going to take over the business when he graduates so his dad can retire.
We'll see.

There's an idea for a new section of the discussion board...
"How many years until retirement?"
I got 13 to go.

Jerry, do you realize that if we had stayed in the service......?
I'd be coming up on 21 years now (13 Dec '85 enlistment in the LAARNG).

More power to those that did though....

I don't regret getting out. Of course, my feeling would probably be different if I hadn't been put on the Ortolan. Ged I hated that ship.
