and my wife called in sick, so I wouldn't make the trip myself,(how sweet of her) she makes $7.00 and hour, a 8 hour shift, after taxes thats around $40 of another loss

so all in all this trip cost me about:
$27.00 for gas- about 3/4 of a tank
$14.48 for dinner(no recipt to prove)
around $8 to buy ---- to prove i was there with reciepts.
around $6 in drinks on the way there/back (no recipts)
$40 because my wife took the day off work to go with me.
____
$95.48 that I spent. I figured it would've been worth it had i got the deal I was suspossed to get. -it wouldve been the cost of shipping everything...

it just takes time man, it took me almost a year and many beatings from the wife before i got my turbo kit finally together and installed. yeah, i mean 1k plus dollars straight out of the pocket is a nice chunk, but over a years time, it's basically nothing. you just have to spend a little money here and there before anything good can happen. i know since you're in the military and your wife works too, you have enough money. don't they pay for your housing too? and both your cars are paid off, you're just stingy with your money ;) i use to be the same way, i would rather see the money in the account keep going up instead of spending any, but then you don't have any fun ;)

truck payment = 400
car payment = 350
mortgage pament= 600
insurance = 250
gas/food per week= at least 70
wife pays most utilities


i still find a way to put money in to my car, it's just what i like to do, and even though it's not really a priority since i have a family, it's still important to me, so i find a way.

im still tryin to find that way. trust me, building/modifing cars is in my blood.


building cars is what I do to. I love it. its my life. its what I do. all of my family builds cars, my uncle has 4 national champion winged outlaw sprint car motors, my grandpa owend a shop for 36 years, my other uncle has a 8 sec 1/4 mile drag car(i have yet to see run for myself) my brother at home races circle track and his team is 2nd in points (they are 16 and 17 years old)

its all me man. its what i do. i just aint doing it right now and it sucks royal goat nuts. :'(
