They are using my paint color.

Well.. I happen to be in the library, and the color green that they are using, is my green. The very one in my bedroom.

I missed everyone, wanted to cach up a little and give an explanation for what's been going on.

Susan's parents are moving, so she's been stretched thin as they need her help, and as both households are selling a lot of their antiques.

I was more than mildly freaking out as all the bills kept piling up, and the date that I had set for going to Scotland kept creeping up.

Well, I just decided that I was going to buy the ticket, and let the chips fall as they may.

I am not a gambler. Don't like the premise. Ok, I confess to playing the lottery every now and then. But I must have been in for some good karma.

All of the following happened within the space of three days:
I got my ticket dirt cheap
John got a job
Susan took off 350.00 of the rent (in exchange for John helping her for four full days with their moving process.)
Pat contacted me and we are going to have a mini-visit prior to my trip!
And, my goose-egg hatched

Do you remember when I told you all about my 401k plan at my old job and how they told me that I was not entitled to any portion of my 401k, even though my company told me that I would be vested 30%? I got a notice. They were wrong. I get my 30%! And it looks like I'll get it just in time for my trip. It's not a whole lot, but it's more than enough.

In a week, I'll have a new cable modem, so there won't be anymore of this inconsistency that's been so prevalent. And, I'll be getting a web cam/digital camera. Not to mention, I'll have a new phone # too. All of it tax deductible because I'll be using it for business purposes.

Patience vinehumpers patience.
