So i had the chance to sit and think about all of the blessings that Tina and i have received over the last year and the list is getting truly long. first of all we have a very beautiful baby boy who sleeps through the night from day 1, and who is healthy with no problems. there is also how everything worked out to get us moved down to cello and have jobs that begin and end in ways that help us make ends meet. like for instance when i was working for northern electric and got laid off i first thought that it was a major jip, but later we found out that we wouldn't have qualified for Medicaid if i was still working there and cael would have bankrupt us. then i get a job at the tire shop a short while later. its things like that that prove there is a god looking out for us.
Dont get me wrong, life hasn't been peaches and cream. we have had our up's and our down's, but we dont need to get into those today. so since Tina and i decided to do everything with our credit things started to happen in a very happy way. first in my first few weeks of working for the tire shop my boss got sick of his boat, the floor was cracked, it has no seats, and the transom (back of the boat that holds the motor) is falling apart. so he gave it to me... i can sell the running motor alone for 500-600 dollars, but Tina decided that she likes the idea of a sun bathing deck. so that got me into fixing it up, i started repairing the cracked deck and the transom. after that it can be put into the water. then i just need to install a driver's position and its a good 23 foot 105HP fishing boat (sweet lovely overkill)
After that we decided that we didn't want to pay for the truck anymore so we started looking at other cars and came across a 94 Jeep Grand Cherokee for 800 dollars. We offered full price and he agreed and we planed a meet. Well when he was heading out to meet my dad the brakes failed on him. nothing bad happened as a result but he dropped the price to 500 to compensate for me to repair it. it cost me 23 dollars to fix it! and it has not had a single problem since. now were looking at doing a 4 inch lift to the bugger and doing some bigger tires.
Now i have a new toy to tinker around with. Dad on Tina's side sold me one of his motorcycles for 100 bucks! i was shocked. but im now having fun getting this thing up and going.
well thats all for now folks!
with love the Christensen's
