As I said in the OP, she would have to be making a lot more money for us to truly entertain the idea.

I don't know if you missed the thread, but I've been off of work getting tested for sleep apnea. According to the doctor who did my DOT physical for my job, I am at risk for having sleep apnea because I am overweight and I have a large neck. I can't go back to work until I get this sorted out because my physical certification has expired.
