And although we HAD that money a year ago, it's all disappeared with the stock market crash. :(CChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01537821831479150677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3367581551556551352.post-71005850037751201032009-03-03T10:11:00.000-06:002009-03-03T10:11:00.000-06:00argh - I hear you - our money that we made since w...argh - I hear you - our money that we made since we got married - GONE - just like that!tiarastantrumshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03036618235332598079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3367581551556551352.post-73815896405975897062009-03-03T09:07:00.000-06:002009-03-03T09:07:00.000-06:00The sound of a cat puking is like nails on a chalk...The sound of a cat puking is like nails on a chalkboard to me. <BR/><BR/>Everyday....I watch my Apple stock tank. :( I'm almost obsessive about watching it.
