    Forumites…lend me your ears… (unless your chopper reed, ill take that as an exception.)

    [:D][:D][:D]

    As Pinky is now working, and shes kickn ass i might add. She loves what she does.

    We discussed (or Pinky suggested) maybe I can take 1 day a week off work, say Wednesdays. So I would work Mon-Tues Thur-Friday !! [:D]. I love that Idea… !

    So in a few weeks.. when im back from 1 week leave, and our yearly appraisals are done with salary adjustments.. im going to ask about the day off… im hoping it will be ok with them, as there is another person who take 1.5 hours off each day, with a salary cut. [:D]

    But the extra day off can be used to spend more time with Pinky, the kids (on holidays), general “things to do” around the house, banking/shopping… yay !…. [:D]

    I cant wait …. [8D][8D]

    Regards,
    Arty.

    Good luck with your day off. I hope you will spend some time in investing also on your day off. I wish I can do that.

    PG,
    Im just crossing my fingers that they say it ok… LOL [;)]

    Hi Pelican.. LOL [8)]
    Not really financial freedom from positive cash flow, more like taking a day off to look for investment options and spend more time with my family not busting a gutt for someone elses profits. [:p]

    Muppet,
    The only thing we can fight over is the puter…LOL
    We have 3 PCs now, but only 1 is connected to the internet….LOL [}:)][}:)][}:)]

    Regards,

    Hey Arty, aren’t you a computer guru?

    Network them up so you can both be on at the same time.

    Melbear, there is 3 PCs, Pinky/Me share 1, the other 2 are for our daughters… I dont want them finding a way to the internet just yet.

    They are at the learning stage, of installing, deleting programs now… I have said they can do anything they want with them.. that way they will learn more..[:I]

    I will network them oneday but its too soon. They only got them for Christmas.

    [:D]

    Arty.

    Hey Arty, I don’t work at all – in fact I resigned 3 months ago to look after my son. My wife goes to work so I can keep the life I have been accustomed to[^]

    No actually, we found it was a better alternative to our Nanny (although she was cute[:p][:p][:p])

    Good luck with your plan.

    She chose the Nanny – I had no input there.

    Maybe it was the thought of me coming home from work in summer and finding her in a bikini lounging by the pool.[}:)][}:)]
