Trailer & Retirement






I've always liked her work, starting with the Stone Poneys way back in the sixties. Beautiful voice and excellent choice of songs to showcase it.



 And this right here is why the average middle class wage earner never gets ahead of the game. You bust your hump going to work every day, but every day your dollars are worth less. There's definitely something wrong with a system where the government borrows their money from an outside concern and then has to pay interest on it while devaluing the purchasing power. If I would have purchased an item for $1.00 on the year I was born, 1950, to purchase that same item this year it would cost $32.30. A little bit of fiscal responsibility certainly wouldn't hurt.


I finished up the trailer job and it got hauled away yesterday - glad it's gone. However, Cuzzin Ricky stopped by and dropped off a job for the American Legion post. Not a big job, but I thought I was free to get back on my own jobs exclusively for a while. I'll get that cleared up in the next couple of days and get back on the trials bike and the jitney. I did pick up the new bearings for the steering stem on the bike the other day.

Last night of working for wages tonight. Retiring for the 3rd or 4th time isn't as exciting as when I left the high school years ago, but I'll be glad to be out from under it.
