I'm verrrrrrry happy ...ggggg so ... I've decided that with the use of the removable HDs via the trays, I can trim down to three boxes upstairs and, I'm using the downstairs office machine which belongs to my wife during the day via my own HD for my infrequent logons to the internet ... as the day to day Nannying is becoming more familiar to me I plan on returning to trading some .. BUT not gunslinging the emini as I was --- for that demands intense concentration and losta screens FOR ME .... I've been working on developing my positional trading skills for the past two years and I won't need as many machines to do that ... and I've prepared a crib and play area in my upstairs office so that Tavi can start to spend some time up there this spring and when she does stay a day or so a week in the summer *(her mom is a teacher, and her father is graduating in May) again .. she is pleased and I am too ..... and yes ... being a full time Nanny is the absolute BEST job I've ever had .... Tavi is an marvel to me and we enjoy every day to the fullest ... lol n
