GOOD NEWS AND ONLY GOOD NEWS

I went to the coney island yesterday (those in the Midwest will know, those who dont- its a diner that specializes in chili or "coney" dogs and other diner-esque fare), and ordered chicken strips. They are some of the best and I was craving them something bad. I went to go pay, and swiped my rewards card, and turns out I had a free appetizer loaded on my rewards card that expired the same day. Free lunch! woot woot

 

My son got a very good job offer today. 35% pay raise and excellent benefits. Proud dad I am.

 

About 9 days ago I got a court summons for Jury Duty, Due to being the sole caregiver to my wife, there is no way I can do this. I sent a letter stating what is going on and for the last 8 days my anxiety has been thru the roof hoping to get relieved. I really did not know what we would have done if I didn't get excused. Well, today I called the number and I have been excused. Huge weight lifted off my shoulders.

 

I only have 83 payments left on my 4Runner.

 

Was that from a 7 or 8 year loan? I remember when they went to 5 year loans and people lost their minds over that. I personally never had more than a 4 year loan myself.

 

7 year loan, it’s the only way I could afford it. But I generally pay off my loans early. But this 4Runner is like buying a house. Back in 2018 I bought a Jeep Patriot with 13,000 miles for $15K. The 4Runner is 3 times that amount, but worth every penny.

 

I spit out my pop

I really hate this term, but this is the "new normal".. unfortunately. Car makers have inched prices up (look at the price of a stripped down F-150!) and people are paying it. Until they reach the threshold and consumers stop purchasing a base model SUV or truck for $55,000 its just going to keep going up.

We have a 2023 F150 Powerboost (sticker $57k) & my 2023 4Runner TRD ORP (sticker $49k). Even still, my TRD ORP is a deal compared to the F150.

 

Eye Doc tells me my "Nearsighteness" has gotten better! I says " I ate 142 trout this Spring"!
Shot me in the eye with a laser measureing contraption called the "Daytona"! I says "Miami here I come"!

 

I feel like I am having a stroke after reading that Whaaaaaaaaat?!?

 

I cant see got to wear yellow goggles at night. And i broke the nose piece on my Tag Heuers. Got JB curing now. I scored a pair of Columbia frames for $25 bucks. Coated Bifocul Sun Shading this time.

 

Just got this bad boy. Tried to get a used one, NOPE. Just buy it new. They last a couple years.

I just dug out a boil I had on my forearm for like 3 months! Feels so freaking good!

 

My forearm surgery is healing quick. Thanks for asking. I wouldnt wish this boil on my worst enemy.

 

I just finished plowing my garden in the front and about 8 acres of food plots for the deer.

 

Turkeys?

 

Not a lot of turkeys here in Northern Mi. Mainly I plant the plots for the deer.
