6 month Update

Well, after the craziness of October, things are finally settling down 'round here. I now manage one employee and have begun to make a name for myself. I got a decent review and got a bonus with my annual review to boot - Yeah me!!!

Things are better now than they were, I managed to make some adjustments in my monthly child support payments, so that ended up giving me another $600 a month for my expenses, and boy did I need it.

I've made some real great allies in the ship captains, and am planning on taking a cruise in a few weeks. I'm going to get the "royal treatment" for my efforts in helping the port captains, so it should be fun.

Brenda and I are planning to get married in July, and on a cruise no less. My mother will perform the ceremony (she's an ordained minister) and we're going to have her folks and my folks and her kids here for the ceremony.

All in all, things are looking up and we're both getting to a better place. Brenda loves her job as a forensic accountant, and boy some of her clients have money to burn. She handles divorce cases and spend her time doing lifestyle analyses. She then see how much they spend and where it all goes. I can't even fathom some of these guy's house payments...$13K month for a nice place near the beach, and they eat out to the tune of a few thousand a month....god would I love that lifestyle....NOT!!!

Anyway, I figured an update was due, so here it is....Enjoy!!
