    So does this mean that you will spend crazy money to fill that last and lonely slot? I know the feeling - I have been there myself.

    Nice coin by the way!

    I saw that one too, good price and if you hadn't snagged it, might be in one of my threads! ( I was thinking of today's EB if it's the same coin).

    I've found that the people who you work with will really dictate whether or not you really like your job. I am fortunate in that respect. I also find that little things, during the day, such as a lunch with a friend or buying yourself something special will really help to break up the day and make it more pleasurable. You're welcome @1630Boston and I truly admire that beautiful Colonial that you just picked up. Great set, too!! o:)

    You are correct, in my opinion.
