anyone is free to speak up and tell me if im wrong or not, but we neither drink nor smoke, and that right there could save you a small fortune, we dont have a million credit cards, we are frugal with our money ,we dont buy what we dont need.
Ive had my say, so have at it if anyone wants to argue that!!!

Geeze Grandmaillie,
You gotta change your ways! You gotta come hang out with us sometime. I can help! Of course you will be totally corrupted and turn out like the Cools and the Sunshines! You'll be a fun free living spirit, totally laid back, and hanging out often at Siesta Key Beach. You will throw off those work duds, and slip on some soft spungy flip flops! I'll stop there, cuz you dH might read this and question who the heck you keep talking to on-line! LOL Don't feel guilty that you worked hard, and want to enjoy the fruits of your labor - its cool with me!

I know, I read that. I am not planning on being down much in September, maybe a short check on the house trip :-) if I can talk my wife into letting me get away. I will be here full time from October to next May.

Yup count me in on whatever's going on I'm sure I'll be here. I usually only go places in the summer when the kids have off. |
