Hey JMC,

Good to hear from you. You're not hijacking the thread. I appreciate your input.

Well, get this: When I was married, I allowed my ex to quit his job so that he could go to school full-time. Sure, money was tight. We were living off of my paycheck and his 401K. He had it made, really. I was working toward a promotion, which I got. Then all of a sudden...BAM! He left. He quit school, and now, he's painting houses for a living. Isn't that insane? I still can't figure it out. It's like he flipped out.

Well, got to go...I'm waiting for him to come by today and pick the rest of his stuff.

All my best,
alamogirl
