    Hey Carol!

    It has been slow! It's nice though, anything from testing, to
    chat and so on.

    Excellent. Here is a new test.

    Life is good,

    Hey Carol!

    So what's going on with your days now?

    They seem to be sticking to a 24 hour cycle although for the last couple of decades an hour appears to be much shorter than it used to be. There are still 24 of them to be had in a day.

    How about your days?

    Life is good,
    Maurice

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

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

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

    Hey Carol!

    federal/state aid kicking in but not fully until Feb). Been 3
    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.

    Working 2-4 VADM (Navy flag officer) tasks per week and it's NOT
    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.

    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
