It seems our luck declined on 9-11 2001 with the terrorist attacks. I work very close to the Pentagon. Our building shook when the plane crashed. The economy took a dive and hurt my business, it went belly up 4 months ago. My wife fell down and broke her wrist in 2002 and RSD set in. My baby sister died of a brain anorism 2004, my mother passed away just before Christmas. It just seems to come in waves to the point I feel numb about it all. However, I am optimistic that things will get better.
