Another day another dollar ......... Now what is that supposed to mean? I've heard it all my life but still don't know the meaning. If it refers to earnings it won't apply to us for sure. If it applies to expenditures it won't apply to us for for damn sure. Electricity or even the computer hook up alone requires more than that. Even if we only ate the fish caught from our dock there are some cost in the cooking oils and lost lures. Live another day and what do you get, another day older and deeper in debt.

Dory got up this morning around 1:00 am and read till around 3:30 before coming back to bed. That means she stayed in bed pretty late which could have made this day one of those two meal days unless I cooked my own breakfast. I couldn't do that! Problems start when you start stripping duties from someone. Next thing you know they become bored and begin loosing their jest for life. Then comes the getting fat and sleeping all the time. Life becomes only a pain to be dreaded each day. No! I didn't cook my own breakfast! I made the sacrifice for Glenda's continued joy for living. A man has got to be wary of doing the wrong thing all of the time!

Haven't had either boat out so far this year yet the tri-toon is getting pretty low on fuel. Yep, with gasoline prices so high along with our humble financial situation I've been forced to siphon gas out of the boats gas tank to use for the lawn mower, blower and weed cutter.

May not need it for this mower any more because I hit a root or something while mowing yesterday and it flat died and wouldn't restart. Hey, this is a new lawn mower that has only mowed the lawn one and a little over a half times.

I really liked this. Guy said he came from a large family of thirteen children. Six sets of twins, said he thought that he was crossed eyed until he was near twelve years old.
