It turns out we’re going to Vail Monday am for the misses head (acupuncture) as she just didn’t feel like driving today (ski traffic and the car ride sometimes makes her head worse) and she’s, knock on wood, still feeling a little better. We’re hoping and praying this is the beginning of the end of her headaches. I don’t want to write too much as I might jinx her.<\/p>\n
The boys had a great day at school and we picked them up at 4 as they had chess club after their day. Today I need to try to get them their snow board boots so we can try to get up to the hills at least a couple of times this year.<\/p>\n
It’s 6:20 now as I slept in a little. I was up at 4 but forced myself to go back to sleep. We might get a new pickup today as they have 0% and $12,000 off. If you play the game right (which I do) you can actually drive a new truck every 3 years or so and make your payment continue to go down. I’ve been doing this for a few trucks now and it really does work. The trick is if you buy at 0%, and you buy a truck, the value holds at a higher rate than normal cars do (or deprecation) and if you wait for 0% and get the $10 to $12,000 rebates or discounts they give you when next years models are coming out, you can do really really well. Plus the sales manager is a good friend of mine which helps. Sure you do end up owing more overall but the amount is negligible, a few thousand dollars tacked on the back end of the loan but you own a brand new truck. We’ll see, I’ve walked from many a car lot as I know the game better than most of them. It’s actually fun for me, I enjoy the art of the deal. The misses keeps telling me I should buy cars for people for a living.<\/p>\n
I’ve pretty much been gluten free for a few weeks now and am sort of getting used to it. The few times I’ve had wheat, I felt real sluggish and bloated. Maybe there’s something to it. It’s tough to find good bread though, we tried some garbanzo flour bread yesterday that was horrible. It’s going back to the store.<\/p>\n
On the news right now they’re showing 3 suspects (all black, just saying) that killed 7 people in a bar and got away with a total of $170! Nice, real nice. Divide $170 by 7 and you get about $24 per human life, unbelievable.<\/p>\n
More snow tomorrow, yea, we need it bad. Time for me to run as it’s a gym day. Hope all’s well, take care, be safe and God Bless.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
