Hey Carol!

 CS> Funding a family of 5 with 400$ a month (serious situation,
 CS> federal/state aid kicking in but not fully until Feb).  Been 3
 CS> months and 1 to go.

Ouch!  And at Christmas time too.  The same thing happened to me when my
pension first kicked in but it only took a couple months to resolve.  It was
at Christmas time too and my hot water heater decided to pack it in.  Good
thing it was just me though but it still was extremely stressful.

 CS> Working 2-4 VADM (Navy flag officer) tasks per week and it's NOT
 CS> simple stuff done in 1 hour or less.

I'll take your word on it.  I've never been in the Navy and at this stage of
the game it is HIGHLY unlikely I ever will be.

 CS> It's been keeping me off the BBS pretty much.

Understood.  If there is anything I can do to help you know where to get ahold
of me.  I have no plans to quit just yet and I think I have at least one year
on my life lease.

Life is good,
Maurice
