a new car now...or no?



Should we buy now or buy later? I still don't know! Juergen just took Jessica for a ride in my 18 year old Mazda. It really is getting old, but it could last me a few more years (maybe...and maybe not). The problem is I just don't know if it will last. I would rather hold on to my money, but if I have to spend money on a car soon, then I might as well get the money from the government. This offer is for the first 600,000 cars sold. They have sold over 200,000 already. We can not wait forever if we are going to do this!

How long is the governments offer? Who knows the government might a better offer later. Meanwhile your money is in the bank gaining interest in a savings account. The best deals are 2 year old cars that you paid cash for. You didn't pay the appreciation of the loss driving it off the lot or all the interest. Also after two years there are reports out about what is the best used care to get. "consumer reports". If your car is still working I wouldn't worry about it God will provide the deal you need when you need it. Just be a good stewart with the money you have and save it for your future car. It will be a classic.
My bug is a Toyota Camary We bought it when it was 2 years old it's a 2000. We haven't had any problems with it just regular maintenance. Nate and Lissa had one and it saved Nate's life when he was hit head on last year. You see I wanted a bug,but my husband wanted me safe. Now I'm glad we have the Camary.
Nate and Lissa's Camary is a free very used Lincoln Town Car they were hit by uninsured motorist. They are content with their car it's perfect for hauling things they don't worry about what happens to it. It fits their budget and payments don't follow them home. It gets them from A to B and if they were to get in another accident (we pray that doesn't happen) They will be safe. YOU see Nate was a huge bug fan too, and now he's is glad they drive big free cars. I'm going to keep our car going till it dies. Meanwhile I put money in savings for the next car. I like the idea of getting future free cars.

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

Reading Kingdom

I am very happy to review the Reading Kingdom.   This is an online program that uses a variety of methods to teach reading.   I decided to share this product with my adopted granddaughter Ruth.   Reading kingdom uses a six skills integrative method Ruth only just began to use the program. She is only 3 years old and cannot use the program without help.   But her mom says that she can already recognize words like girl and kids when they are shown on the screen.   Sylvia wrote that she loves the repetition of the words in the program .   That Ruth is memorizing the words she sees.     She will be able to use it for an entire year.   But I expect her to become a very good reader.   And what a great gift to give to any child!   She will have a lifetime love for books.     Sylvia also works with teenage mothers in Uganda.   And many of these women have never attended school.   So she plans to use these ideas to help these young women learn to read. http://www.ReadingKingdom.com what

Taking at look at Hotels select

I have the chance to review Hotels select.   https://www.hotelsetc.com/ This is a really interesting travel club.   You pay a fee of about 200 dollars a year to use their very extensive site.   I got this membership free.   It has many deals of mostly hotels, but also rental cars, flights, restaurants and events around the world.   I have been spending days looking at what they offer.   So far what I’ve found is amazing deals on the places many people go.   For example, hotels in Orlando are 50% less than deals you find at booking.com.   Rental cars are often 25% cheaper than Rental cars.com.   And they have a search where you can book a condo for as little as 250 dollars a week just 1 mile from Disney world.   That is 7 nights for 250 dollars for up to 4 people.   The exact location on Airbnb cost 650 dollars a week. If you travel to places like San Diego, New York City and Las Vegas this site will save you a great deal of money.   If you rent cars you will also find it wo
