I'm still here...

Well, Christmas is over. I hope the "War on Christmas" nonsense is over as well. Happy Holidays and Seasons Greetings are not against Christmas. Get over it. Say Merry Christmas if you want, but don't get bent out of shape if some one wishes you well in a different manner.

Anyway, things are starting to get back to normal at the house... or the new normal, because Anne is in the home stretch on this pregnancy. Our little girl will be here soon. They told us the due date is January 30th, but she could be here any time really. That's right... SHE! So now I'll have one more woman in the house telling me how it is. We've got the room where I stored my TA-50 (army gear) and uniforms cleaned out and painted pink. New carpet is going in on Friday and I guess I'll be putting the crib together Friday night.

I know I didn't post for a little while, but sometimes you just have to step away from the computer.

Oh yeah, someone get with me on this Paypal thing. I have an account, but I want to stick a tip jar on here and I'm not sure how to do that. You know for the baby. Maybe I'll do a baby blog. I've got to start saving for braces and college and a wedding... Oh God!

I agree with the war on Christmas thing. If someone wishes you well, take as such.

It does make me laugh that you will have another female in the house. Ha Ha. Kind of makes you want to get a big cardboard cutout of Mr. T and put in your office just to keep you company.

Also, E and I are going to help kickstart that college savings account and will be setting up and making a contribution to a 529 investment plan for her when she is born. I will try to get info to put on the page for others to make contributions too. That way, she will own her own little portfolio of stocks, bonds, cash, and real estate that can experience 18 years of compounding and be withdrawn tax free for education expenses.
