Thanks for starting today's blog Mike!

And yes, the previous owner re-installed the lights. I haven't moved any furniture in just yet. Want to get carpets cleaned and a pre-emptive fumigation before. That will be happening in the next couple days. Some painting to do also. Usual things when you move to a new home.

"Paint 2 your favorite 'tunes" LOL

Good Morning all!!!
Taz-People do crazy things when they move out. I have been buying foreclosures and it seems every one I look at, has the cabinet doors removed. They are pissed becoz they got evicted and do all they can to make the place miserable for the next person. They aren't hurting the bank, just the new buyer who had nothing to do with it. Just signed the papers yesterday on my third property.. Yay Rah. It doesn't need too much work. I will post pics this weekend. Cant close for another 30 days or so. That makes three houses with a total purchase price of 41,300. Not bad. But I will say houses are going back up in my area. Setting myself up for a decent retirement I hope. My sister and I are working hard for it. I know you all think those houses must be dumps for that price, but they arent and all are in good neighborhoods. A 20K house here is a 100k in other places.

Hi Member 'Kean, sounds like your new day started off with a positive outcome > Sure hope it continues. Mod David posted some great advice.
You have a lot going 4 U 4 sure Just keep working hard & do your best to do your best...Good things arent E.Z. The key is never give up
I dont like what Im doing at present, but i do my best & hope I get transferred back 2 the port (unloading ships instead of trucks) Im just happy/thankful 2 be working. It would be great if I could be working with space (maybe). Like space or his grandfather says "Be the driver of your life & keep driving it to where U waant to be" Don't give up 4sure..

Wish U & members a safe-happy day >enjoy
Bum'Mike

ps Hi 'Jen, U have a good attitude 4real >Enjoy the journey!!!!

GOOD MORNING. 11:08 am here in Mn. Well had a great day for my B Day. Stayed up and watched some movie's till a round 1:30 am. I was out next door talking scooters. ( HARLEY"S). Till around dark 30. This morning I woke up at the crack of 9 am! Didn't even get a sip of my coffee. When my wife called to me. Rick I need your help out here . WTF ? So off I go in my sweats and socks into the garage. Been having a city wide garage sale since weds. We R giving away a 32 in TV ( tube type). FREE and No one wanted it. But this guy had to have it. So my buddy next door and I load it in his truck and drive down the street to this guys house and carry it in for him. Older then me guy . Then my wife tells me when we get back. Some guy just bought 20 of my old Harley shirts. a buck ea. COOL . As I'm going back into the house I hear excuse me! I turn around and these two guys are lookin at me and waving. I'd like to buy all your Harley T shirts you have. Sure thing. 80 Harley shirts GONE BANG just like that. COOL . I kept about 25 of them for old time sake. Know full well that My *** will be back on a bike here soon! But so far so good on selling the rest of our stuff today.
