I'm doing well. I'm working full time and making decent money. B and I are engaged (see attached) and planning on getting a place of our own in the next 2 months. K is very excited about having his own room in our new apartment, and at the prospect of looking for a house next year. Overall I'm really happy and everything is going really really well. I'm usually around here lurking, and I've kept up with most of you over the weeks. I hope everything is going well for everyone else and for those who lives are a bit complicated right now, I hope everything works out for you soon.

The diamond in the ring isn't so white looking in reality, but my digital camera really bites, lol.

Amanda- great update. I'm glad you two are moving forward and were able to work through to this point.

Beautiful ring. We all know it's not about the ring, but darn- it's a beaut :)

I knew about the engagement (I help pick out my ring) so it was pretty low key. We went to dinner at a really nice restaurant and he told me how he felt about me and my son and that he wanted to have a life with and make a family with us (and some more kidlets to come ;)).

Thanks for the compliments on the ring, like I said in a previous post I love it sooooo much. He'll catch me staring at it at times and chuckle, but he's said himself he's really glad he could give me a ring that I like so much.
