Grat, start, vested

1. Gratitude to God and all who help me get through a day
2. Gratitude about vested details

So, I see I have been at RA for almost 4 years and get vested in my 401k before I get vested in the pension plan. In August, I should be eligible for 3 weeks of vacation instead of 2 weeks. I am looking forward to the 3 weeks, even if it is for time to do something in the Cleveland area or go to NY. Last year we were really lucky to go to Cancun, Europe, and NYC. Maybe this year it will be more NYC, NJ, Sandusky, Botanical Gardens, the Rain Forest, and Florida. I hope I have this right - some milestones, in chronological order - 8/2004(start) 8/2007(401k vested) 8/2008(3 weeks vac) 8/2009(vested pension)
