ross549 Posted November 17, 2004 Author Share Posted November 17, 2004 Ok... in order.....1. Thanks guys.... this has been one of the better days in a while. I was in a bit of a fog for most of the afternoon..... or was it cloud nine? 2. Pay raise- will not be much ~200 month more than what I am making now. At this point, the car is my priority, and if I don't have a car, then I cannot buy more computer stuff! Of course there is always FedEx/UPS...... Hmmmm......3. Mom is doing quite well.... she has been home for about three weeks now, and is easing back into her normal routine. The doc says it could take up to a year to fully recover, but I do not see it taking this long.Oh, and did I mention that the cable internet is back up? This day keeps getting better and better!
