Life as I've known it for the last 30+ years ended a few days ago. Kodiak told me that she is pregnant. The long and winding road just got a bit longer and windy-er. I've already got an architect working on designs for our home. I've changed my 401k plan so that I have more cash available. I'm meeting with a friend to discuss refinancing our home or getting a line of credit. Next I'll start looking for contractors.
