11. my life is pretty damn good.

boy, not being tied to a psycho makes life so much better. the last 2 years, trudging through this divorce were so damned hard.
but i got a really good settlement in the end. the money has opened up a whole new venture for me. my sister and bil just started flipping houses. they were paying an arm and a leg for their financing. so i am lending them money, secured by the properties, and making a tidy sum for myself.
just invested in a nice little rental property right across the alley from my house, too.
making my own decisions about money is a very empowering thing.
