Three and Counting

Well I have worked out three time so far. And I am feeling pretty good. I am weighing in at about 210 lbs and would like to be closer or under 200 lbs with pure muscle. Can it be done? Yes. By me? that is yet to be seen. But I have made the first three steps towards that goal. Now I just need to bring my diet under control. Good luck.

House Hunting

Well yet again we embark upon another house tour. The one that I wanted to look at in clinton was already sold. So we are looking toward's Adrian. Don't know too much about it yet I think that it is a 3 bedroom, no basement, no garage both of which are high on my list but we will take a look.

Another slips away

If you don't know, my Wife and I have been looking to purchase a house. We are trying to find one that we can afford and is atleast in a nice area. I am a little slow in moving to write offers and commit to a house without some time. I guess that I am too slow. We had found a house that was inside of our price cap. It needed work (only one bedroom) but it has potential plus it was on a great lot kind of in the country. I was daunted by the amount of work that it needed. I didn't want to get stuck with a house with great potential that I would never reach. So I wanted to know how much it would cost to reach some of that potential. We started looking into what it would need on the surface, and thought that if we could get the price low enough it would be a good buy. We go to write an offer and we hear it just got an offer with a counter from the seller and both are above what we thought to offer. Not to be... So I go back to searching. Found one seems to be nice maybe we will look at it. Call, it is pending, on what? Don't know. Maybe we will look it over anyway and make an offer. What ever is pending can fall through. I say this because I am struggling with stepping out in faith to purchase a house. I don't want to be just working for a mortgage. So please keep us in prayer.

P.S. Russ the house we might look at is in Clinton.

Cigar Arson

This is a funny one that I just heard. Is there any truth, I am not sure, I am shareing this for purely entertaining purposes not to inform.

A gentleman purchased a box of expensive cigars and thought that it would be a good idea to insure them against any lose including fire. As with all cigars he smoked them, and then made a claim against his insurance. The insurance company refused to pay. So he took it to court. The judge sided with him and the insurance company had to pay the claim. This is not the end. The insurance company then took the gentleman to court on charges of arson. The man was found guilty, had to pay fees and was sentenced to jail time for arson. Arson of cigars. The moral of the story..... don't try and get money from your insurance it is theres and they will do anything to keep it. Or make up your own moral.
