tactful bluntness. You said what I was trying to say, but both of our posts have fallen on deaf ears...or so it would seem.

You are doing it right...I admire those..
who realize that being an adult means acting responsibly. Do we blow money sometimes, you bet...but we know how much we can spend and never dip into our long term savings just because we want something. Between us we have 4 grown kids, but have never had any living at home with us However, my DH paid his child support obligation in full to the tune of $1000 a month and still we had savings, vacations, etc. Yes, I know things can change in an instant, that's why we are not in debt and have savings, just in case.
I admire what you've done....
I did something along those lines back in 1992. I left a high-paying job in NYC and moved to a VERY rural area of the country. Jobs I've found since then can't compare to what I used to make, but I don't have the hassles I used to have either. My husband and I scraped and scrounged for a few years but ended up paying everything (except our mortgage) off. We do nothing on credit, and if we want something, we either pay cash for it or we don't buy it. The bills are much more manageable now, and life is better--even though I still have a young child at home.
Which First Lady do U admire most?
Eleanor Roosevelt for me. 
I really admire your enthusiasm. sm
I suggest that you spend some time browsing this website. Check the Main and Company boards, going back a few pages. That will give you an idea of how things work. It is intimidating at first, but you'll learn to sift for the grain.
The average MT job WITH EXPERIENCE pays 8 cents per line. Some make 9-11 cents, but not too many. I think it would be a miracle for a newbie to get 9, but I might be wrong. I have seen some working for 6, the lucky ones for 7.
Check some back pages on this board before you do too much, to get a feel for what's available, what kind of work you might be interested in, which companies will hire new (fresh out of school) MTs. A lot of companies require 2 years working experience.
Good luck to you. Don't get discouraged if it takes awhile; it's not easy to break in.
Hey, I admire you! I am 50, my DD is in college, and is always encouraging me to go, SM
I just don't know what to study! I am thinking of culinary arts.
Smart lady! I admire you.

I admire your ability to forgive and hopefully this will all blow over - however, that being said,
please make sure that Animal Control did not list this as an "incident" so that it may not be used against your dog in the future, even if no charges were filed. A lot of states have a strict "no bite or 3 bite" policy and would not want this to count against your dog later in life. My brother-in-law's dog bit a child when it got tangled up in her bicycle wheels (granted she should not have been that close to the child in the first place), so we've learned to be very careful about our animals.
Me too - she's great! I also admire Nancy Reagan

QA Lady, I admire you but please give it a rest.

I really admire people that can make that kind of money
but knowing the hours she must work, and the days she must put in (probably all week plus the weekend), that's just not for me. Money isn't everything and I'd rather make my $40,000 and have my weekends free and work my 8 hours, five days a week and be done. Again, this is just me. Now if I could make that money working normal hours, I'd be happy. (I can dream can't I?)
