> No cashola for the dang thing anyway....sucks being poor.

> Do any of you barter? Just asking, 'cuz that's how my Chaz got his

> well afford the overage, and of course they get their underground

> utilities put in. That's me justifying the whole deal....

> We did some other bartering recently too, and I got some lovely

> didn't NEED the jewelry.....LOL!

> We also planted some veggie plants today. We do our gardening in

> containers to make it easier on me. We planted squash, tomatoes,

> jalapenos and hmmmmm....forgot what else. Now that there's a Home

> Depot only 4 miles away we should be able to keep a very lovely

> container garden. My one rose bush that I planted is doing

> Hill Country rock is next to impossible.

> Chaz just came in and said No Fishing today. His head still hurts.

> Gives me time to get my license and be legal.

> The next thing we may barter for is a motor home. That's the only way

> to go camping, in my opinion. Well, other than a Holiday Inn....LOL!

> Oh, this all reminds me of the biggest barter we ever did. When Chaz

> was 35, he got food poisoning, which caused a UTI, which in turn

> caused peridcarditis, and he had a mild heart attack. We got him to

> the hospital in time and there was very minimal damage done. The real

> exchange for all of the doctor bills! We still owed the hospital $4k,

> but were able to pay them off slowly.

> So, we love to barter. We check Craigslist every day for things, which

> is how I got my jewelry.

> Ummmm, I gotta go now. Craigslist is calling my name......

> Hope each and every one of you is enjoying a lovely Sunday.

> YAY for Spring!!!!
