        thanks all for the words of encouragement, now to plot my exit strategy. i have a very specific set of skills that put me in a good position for a lot of sh!tty paying jobs, might go into teaching for a few years or maybe working with low maintenance special needs folks & then transfer that to a non-profit type of organization for children needing additional help with their studies & all that type of sh!t. time to start mapping out 6 month, 1 year & 5 year plans. i'm excited

            Monday, if you need any advice, my fiance is a Special Education teacher.  I would be glad to help you out in any way I can.

                Special Ed folks are a unique and wonderful breed.  I have nothing but the utmost admiration for people who choose to work in the field.

                Monday, if you've reached a point where you need to make a career change so that you'll be happy with facing yourself in the mirror each day, go for it and best of luck to you.  Tom, tell your fiancee I respect her work and want to say thanks for what she does.

                  And now that I'm thinking about it, here's what's changed my life in the last year:

                  My daughter Caroline, born April 29th.

                  And my son got older and goofier

                  We started a mammoth construction project that still isn't finished 12 months later

                  I also got to meet Giles, Paula, Beetle, Blackheart, Denim Sailor, and Baby Knight, and I got to better know more Forum folks.  All good things, all of which made this past year an interesting and eventful one.

                  Basically, I feel like I'm a pretty lucky guy.:)

                          2012 has been a pretty bad year for me. Injuries, cancer and a miscarriage. Here's hoping 2013 is a lucky 13 for me.

                                    In my experience, the lows make the highs all that much sweeter. Sorry to hear you've had a rough old time Bagley but here's to a much better 2013 and hoping that the bad times are behind you.

                                            Wishing you and your Family all the best. 5+ years ago within few months i got divorced, lost my father in a deadly accident and got the news of an illness myself, which i got thankfully under control. Take all the time you need mr bagley. I hope my words may give you a bit of faith and hope. Best wishes for a prosperous 13 🙂

                                            Cheers,
                                            David
