Clearing Bills

As it was the first of the month and we are getting closer to leaving the area, we wanted to clear as many bills as possible. We started with some low balance accounts that were a no brainer to pay off, and we combined that task with a couple others.

We started by taking our uniforms back to the stadium. Our managers, Danny and Chris, were both there and we said goodbye to them while handing over the uniforms. Both of them were insistent that we return again next year so we told them we would, even though, at this point in time, we would not return. A lot can happen in one year, so we wanted to keep that option open in case we change our minds.

The next stop was Mario's where Josie got a haircut. It was close to TNT Car Wash, so we stopped and had the truck washed for the first time. What a difference from the last truck. Because we don't have a Dually anymore, we were able to go through the normal car wash lane and paid less than half the cost for our truck this time. Here, we watched them perform the detail work after the wash:

We stopped at Home Depot and Macy's to clear our accounts there and we now are back to zero on those. Slowly, all of the other accounts will be cleared from all the house expenses that we incurred. It will take some time, but the extra income from Jackson will go a long way toward clearing the rest of them. I'm sure everybody fights the same battle of keeping expenses down in today's economy.

It is only two more weeks before our tenants move into our house. That will also go a long way in keeping expenses down so we are anxious for that phase to begin. We will pick up the action today in getting things together inside the RV. It is almost "under control", so we are anxious to get that work done before we move to our new site here at Pioneer which is currently having some work done to it to make it nicer. That move should be any day now...
