Friends,

I'm sure that everybody here has had this feeling of success at one time or
another living with a disability and experiencing newer levels of
independence whenever.  As most of you know, I'm employed as a Remote
Troubleshooter at the Prentke Romich Company, I have almost two years under
my belt, so in March I got offered a credit card because I have some income
coming in.  At first, I didn't want to respond to the credit card company
because my Mom scared me of the word "credit" as a child, which was OK and
something I would probably also do to my own kids (if I have any).  Needless
to say my Mom actually encourage me to responding in March, and yesterday I
received a surprise in the mail, by being accepted and a credit card popped
out.  So I offered to take my parents out for supper last night to
celebrate.  I know that it might sound silly, but I feel great knowing that
I have some plastic in my wallet just because my parents can trust me with
money.  I know that I'm going to have limits but that isn't going to be
because of my parents, I myself know that I don't have that money tree like
some feel they have and unfortunately don't.

Thanks,
Anthony
