Yeah I know what you mean. And yes, I'm finally done with it. Now I just have the unfortunate task of finding a job that I can stand doing through college. How many more years of high school does your oldest have?

Haha yeah, that's the best way to do it right now. I'm starting community college in the fall to work toward my AA. They also have a really good welding course that I'm really looking forward to taking.
