Sounds like you guys are making progress, especially on the earnings front. I'm glad that you've left your 401(k) alone. Too many people time the market, whether they even realize it or not, and they're hurting themselves in the end. My own 401(k) dropped as much as 40% to 45% at one point, but it's picked up substantially in December. That would not have been possible if I pulled out then. Congrats!
