I had an epiphany

I have been debating about possibly buying another vehicle or a camper or whatever.....Then the words which Bill Clinton used for his campaign came forth "Keep it simple stupid" In short, the less you do, is more. (NO, I didn't vote for him)


So, after a suggestion from a co-worker I checked out parts for repairing my van. They were well within my budget (Obviously) and so after I replace them (Radiator, Power steering pump and thermostat) I can then buy the trailer I was pondering on. Sure I could have my radiator torn open and redone, but why bother when a replacement is actually cheaper?


So, that's my plan. I have to wait but a little while (NO OT so far this week (BOO HOO!) But next week will have the work done. I plan to use craigslist for the mechanic.....$60 an hour I figure is a fair price. All that work should take 2-3 hours I am guessing. 


Then save a couple weeks and have a nice down payment ready when I do go to buy. But that's not till April. I want the credit cards down a bit first....Love the messages I get from God, they are so well thought out!
