Three & half years later...
And my baby finally has a good paying job!
she had been laid off shortly after 9/11, due to the economy collapsing, and our field (marketing, advertising, and communication) being the first and hardest hit. I have been lucky, I have culinary skills to fall back on and am currently managing a large food service account, but she has been languishing, selling morgages, re-selling eBay, and consulting.

Now finally!

Man, I'm so relieved. Money was starting to get tight. Now we can afford a real vacation!:applause:

1. congrats!
must be nice. I'm still waiting.

(Although getting back to doing music full-time in the meantime is fun, if not lucrative.)
