THEN, buddy emails me this week, selling his seat for cheap. HAHAHA! I'm quite happy cuz i'd rather save the $$, but i guess the element of surprise is gone.

wife has spent her normal excess this year. now it's just up to me to get her something. I'm thinkin a Ham & my Organ (or is that Hammond organ??!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]).
You should be happy she is spending anything on you[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Seeing you just moved into your dream garage[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] You are a greedy man Nedley[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Why don't you just go out and buy her a new dishwasher or oven to go in her new kitchen[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] And leave the organ alone[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I should be happy, but i don't want ANYTHING! least of all, i don't want more debt. the best gift she could give me would be to show that she can CONTROL her out-of-control, idiotic spending. especially now that she got her dream house and 4X the old mortgage. and worse yet, now i gotta go spend $$ we don't have, for something she doesn't need!

Yes, 3,000'. Your probably around 2,999[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Wow, dad gone that long of a span[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]
Naw. were around 2400 or so. But, i think theres only certain days we cant burn. And i dont think weve had very many or any at all.[/quote]

TO bad[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] if you build a really tall chimney stack[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] you can be at the 3,000' elevation to burn whenever you want[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] The last couple of days we have been restricted[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] not that I can burn more then a one 6" log in our fireplace anyways[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

You looking to adopt?
Sure, but you need to recipricate[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Just camping gear, couple of computer books and "Dust to Glory". Usually it goes like this. Mom asks for a list. Give mom list. Mom looses list. Give new/another copy of list. Rinse, repeat. Then she usually gets us something NOT on the list as a suprise. Been that way for years. Last year she floored me when she got me a gear bag. (She hates quads, MC, etc.
Sounds like my mom[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] the older they get, the more senile they are[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Shopping...hahaha. Depends. Maybe on the 23rd or 24th if the boss comes through with a bonus. Doesn't look good though.
Too bad[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] apparently he had one to many thefts when the company was up north[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Currently running in and out cooking a pork loin for dinner on the grill. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
I was up skiing all day. The weather was Awsome up there. Teh drive was a lil icy but the jeep has no problem with that stuff. Though, i did see 2 snowboarders, a snowplow, a highway patrol and NO car on the side of hte road just past shaver going up. So im not quite sure what happened there. But, it looks like they slid off the side of the road. haha

[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

Making a DVD photo album of family pics. And probably a DVD player for granny. Bro said not to worry about anything. (Money is tighter than....hmmm anyone think of anything clean? LOL )

Just camping gear, couple of computer books and "Dust to Glory". Usually it goes like this. Mom asks for a list. Give mom list. Mom looses list. Give new/another copy of list. Rinse, repeat.

Nothing new with this. Been going like this for years.

Shopping...hahaha. Depends. Maybe on the 23rd or 24th if the boss comes through with a bonus. Doesn't look good though.
Too bad[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] apparently he had one to many thefts when the company was up north[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
Not anything out of the ordinary. We actually only had like one theft in the beginning. Usually we lose probably 2-3K a year in tools, from job sites. Now if the damn things would stop growing legs and walking out of the shop unescorted. Looks like the wire stopped growing legs... Parts loss (aka shrinkage in retail) is also way down as well I think. The main culprits of that have all left the company.

Been real slow in the field recently. So the cash flow is also probably on the light side.

Oh, I know the pain of debt. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Tis why I've only ridden like 3-4 times since the summer.

Ah yes the pain of no $$$$[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] But how about the pain of no $$$$ because the significant other is the culprit[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]
