During the summer I'll usually get to the site at 6:30 and work until 6:00 or so. It makes for a long day. That's one of those nice things about school even though the rest sucks. I actually get to sleep.
Jeez what a whiner.(j/k) I love long days where I work my *** off.

$5000.00 roof for the house.
$29,000.00 F-550 to pull the 5th wheel with.
The list goes on and on in the 27 years that I have been married to Kriss and us both practicing this lifestyle.
All while putting money into savings for retirement, etc.
House will be paid off in three years or less and then that money is going to double up on the camper payments and then I will be DEBT FREE.

Same here, and I tithe on the gross before taxes, not the net.
Strange thing happened when started doing that, my income went up more than before and it more than covered the added "expense".

I better stop there or this thread will end up in the Club.
I hear ya, its like playin' catch with God but the but ball he throws you is always bigger than the ball you throw him

But yeah we better quit.

Yeah i love florida cause they dont have emissions checks...and I see trucks on the road all the time that would never pass in most other states. I wonder if they even enforce them. I should know these things since i am so close to 'bama.

Just wonderin, cause I may be moving across the line in a year or two and im more of a no cats type of guy....

LOL, yep that's me! I have a serious problem with having my picture taken most of the time....

Dinner was nice though. Jay and Lynn are really nice people! I wish we would have had more time to sit and BS with them.
