Hi Carol,

 CS> that.  Sold a few on my own, had one stolen and taken for storage fees

All considered, not bad.  Just that we'd not anticipated car payments so
we just have to eat more beans and rice than we thought we would.  We
alway buy new vehicles so we are sure not to get "unadvertised specials"
that used ones may have.

 CS> I could possibly move for that now that we dont have the storage stuff
 CS> to add to it.  It would be close though.

We're shedding a lot of stuff we schlepped around--girls are getting
their books and toys, finding new homes for other stuff.

Matching a certain shade can be a problem.  Try for a "goes reallywell
with" instead.

 CS> Hehehe.

The plant we got last year is doing quite well but we'll adopt it out.

 CS> Thats always how it works though.

Yes, but the trips to NC and car problems took time we could have put to
getting ready use.
