Oh, yeah!  Remember me?  Yes, it's been a little while since I've had time to actually sit down!  I'm pooped!  Our truck petered out last week and it's broke big-time.  So, we've been truck shopping and I must say, it is SCARY!!  Apparently, you must either win the lottery or sell a child to be able to afford one that's not older than your grandmother.  But we have been thru 3 clunkers in 5 years and I think that it's about time to move up from the beaters to something that lasts longer.  So, here we go, about to sign our lives away for an exorbitant amount of money so we can have our very own gas-hog!  I don't know what we'd do without a truck though.  We couldn't pull the trailer and (HEAVEN-FORBID) couldn't haul manure and buy lots of stuff at garage sales.  Couldn't have that!  Good-bye, all my poor little pennies!
