    The OP is hanging out with his wife and kids right now at Red Robin, while most of the others here are probably typing from a 6' x 6' sleeper cab somewhere in the middle of nowhere a thousand miles from home! LOL

    I am stuck in a NJ Turnpike service plaza until the morning waiting to reload. Nothing like a weekend in a New Jersey urine lot!

    Not I. Last time I slept in a sleeper was in Dec of 2012. Actually what I have been doing mostly today is trying to get all my tax info ready to mail. Not been easy because I got 2 of my 1099s late and then both of them had errors.

    There's no easy answer.

    Yea man quit your good job and jump right in.
    I cannot in good concious tell you that.
    I didn't wanna say what I made now, you be going Oh heck yes.
    Took a lot of lumps, and still take them to get here, and that's with an almost spotless driving record.

    I will tell you unequivocally, even local is ALL consuming.

    There's a lot of disclaimers in this.

    Shoot man, I filed my S-Corp & 1040 as soon as the Feds & State had everything ready, sometime in February ;-) My Refund was issued electronically within a couple weeks afterwards.
