All Theo has to do is buy out our mortgage company and that $2K/month (and then some) is all his!

With regards to college savings - a long time ago I signed up for UPromise. It gives you a cash back type award that can be rolled into a 529.

There are lots of ways to utilize it, but I just have my plastic linked to it. If I'm shopping online I'll check and see if they have a larger bonus for using the click-thru link on their site. Otherwise, I shop as normal. Anything I get is a bonus.

When it comes to retirement, it's not a particularly large sum in 2010.

I had planned to do something like that for our kids with a Roth IRA, unfortunately the money has to be earned income, so that kind of throws a wrench in the plan.

Ripped out my I.V. for the second time in the same amount of days. Not sure if the nurses are, but I know I'm getting tired of my rookie hospital mistakes. I'm damn sure no rookie.

Obviously you are. Now stop being sick. It's stressing Erica out. I'll sic the twins on you if I have to.

Obviously you and I have a different definition of "the twins"

Wither that or J is guaranteed to stay in the hospital.
