For today:
I wasn't joking the other day about an almost
impossible task I undertook. Getting the trashed Cub
Cadet running, most thought it was A lost cause. LOL
After many hours of playing with it, I came into
the RV singing, “To Dream the Impossible Dream”. Hey Sherry do you hear the Cub Cadet running???
Yes the engine is running, and it is cleaned up. I still yet have to install the belts. One to run the transmission and the other to turn the cutting blades.
Yep I am a happy camper. It makes me feel good to fix things. LOL
Oh, thinking back, I am not sure if I put this house on my blog the other day, but here it is.
I built
this one about 25-30 years ago. It still
looks great. It cost me about *65K to build. It sold for about $85k. land and
all. It sold again in about 2002 for $105K.
I smile, it is on the market for $335,000. OUCH
Something has gone haywire somewhere. The property
taxes alone on that house will be about $300-360 a month. OUCH again.
Anyway, I am feeling good, I just maybe coming out of my depressed mood. Sherry sure hopes so.
Ref the Impossib le Dream, BTW Frankie would have been proud of my rendition. LOL ;-)

Congrats on fixing that cub cadet! We have one that's about 20yrs old and thankfully still runs great! A few fixups here and there but new ones are so darn expensive! I hope the rest of the fixing goes well. I hope you continue with your good attitude and life continues to bless you. Your homes you built are so pretty and it's crazy how prices have risen! However, if we sell ours I'm hoping for a good return! Ha! Have a good weekend Jack!
Yes Jack, always dream the impossible dream and hope for the best. And rest assured that whatever happens God is always by your side. Praying for you and your family. God bless.
Congrats on your success! It does feel good to accomplish the impossible. I love that song too! Hope your successes keep on through the New Year. One thing I've learned is to never give up!
Congrats - what are you going to do with the machine? Who gets the money for your house - that is pretty cool! Yes, keep dreaming Jack.
Good for you for fixing the cub gadet fixed. It is a good feeling to accomplish something like that.
I love that song! ... Way to go, Jack!
BTW, Tom's also been struggling with depression lately. It's not pleasant, so I'm happy to hear you're coming out to the light.
