We pulled out of it, and we're back on our feet. The experience has made me braver because I know that I can make it through tough times. When my current boss is difficult, I think to myself, "What can you do to me, take my job?" I've been there. I can go there again.Last year, we started college savings plans for our daughters and bought them dress coats they could wear to the ballet. I tell people that the coats are my middle class dream, and then I laugh with relief and a little sadness. Most people don't get the joke, and I hope they never have to.

I never heard the lay off joke during Reagans years in office, but I personally heard that Joke TWICE during clintons admin. With the Bush Admin., I not only did not hear the joke, I get to keep more of my earned money.
