In Reply to: Thank you and TT112 for the - me

Thanks for all the responses. I was just curious as I work full-time, and only made about 31,000 this year. I get distracted easily, and have a lot of interruptions, up and down all day. I have 20+ years experience, and know I could do better if I truly put my mind to it. The sad thing is I made more money 15 years ago then I do now, but every thing costs more now so it is harder than ever to keep afloat!
