My wife and I just bought a new house. We close 3-30.
We also became landlords in November last year and it is doing good.
I got a fat raise at work.
I have a few business enterprises running that look like they will force me to quit the man in the near future.
Yellowdog had a kid. :)


So how is everyone doing?

Sounds like life is good for you Rook! Excellent news to hear!

I continue to live the dream here in Baton Rouge with my wife and 4 kiddos. Still gainfully employed and as a bonus I get to eat lunch with the family most days. The kids are all busy with music and sports and I've got a desk decorated with pictures drawn by my 2 sweet girls.

I'm not getting any younger, but heck... whatcha gonna do.

Sounds like things are going your way Rook, Glad to hear it.


Now if I could only get that fat raise to accompany my new kid things would look even better. :)

Yeah I hear you on that one Yeller. The write off does NOT cover the expense for sure.

That is what I would love Doc. Eating lunch with the kiddos and not having to miss out because of work pressure.

Yeller you should take a picture everyday of your tyke. In the same spot and position so you can flip back through them in a year. Sometimes it is hard to notice the little things when you are next to them everyday.

Sounds like things are swinging your way Rook. I think I caught the opposite, getting piles of work thrown on me, got half my bonus that I fully deserved from last year's work (Revenue increase from 73M to 123M!) Been putting out resumes to see what else is out there. Good news tho, I am about to start an 11 day vacation away from this 24/7 ball and chain of a job. Time to get some sanity back!
