We do have cash on hand, and we are below poverty level. Not ashamed of our situation, and we plan on changing it, actually we have been changing it slowly. <br /><br />And, no it isn't worth being a slave to things.Phelanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08250080326099834661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28663723.post-12460256298559712712012-01-08T07:08:05.141-06:002012-01-08T07:08:05.141-06:00I was just thinking about what your son said about...I was just thinking about what your son said about being poor. We always say we're broke, not poor. Broke is a temporary financial state, poor is a state of mind. You guys aren't poor, just broke for now. Besides, when you have a lot of stuff, you become a slave to it. I see it with my brother. They have every brand new gadget and gizmo known to man, flat screen TVs in every room, all the kids have iPhones, etc, they're over their heads in debt and he works about 80 hours a week to pay for it and now he's having serious health problems because of it. A bunch of heart stents, needs back surgery and his stress level is through the roof but he can't afford to stop working. It's not worth it.kathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08602883597772387316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28663723.post-52098580510422024362012-01-07T08:36:11.580-06:002012-01-07T08:36:11.580-06:00Hi Jim, and thank you!

He makes the argument that if he already knoes it, why should he have to do the homework and study? I suppose I cant argue with him...I just tell him that it has to be done and life isnt fair!Chapinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11159337173309649846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28663723.post-30334822458149902652012-01-06T11:18:19.465-06:002012-01-06T11:18:19.465-06:00It's always good to hear an update from your h...It's always good to hear an update from your house!<br /><br />I wish you nothing but the best in all your endeavors!<br /><br />Have a great day today!HermitJimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13631580830147175636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28663723.post-68240313756261520082012-01-06T08:37:56.473-06:002012-01-06T08:37:56.473-06:00Thanks guys.Thanks guys.Phelanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08250080326099834661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28663723.post-923858978806438462012-01-06T08:17:54.881-06:002012-01-06T08:17:54.881-06:00Sounds like things are looking up..Good luck in yo...Sounds like things are looking up..Good luck in your venture.johnnybhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15583515325585742368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28663723.post-69219763612663566702012-01-06T08:11:11.827-06:002012-01-06T08:11:11.827-06:00Good luck.
