Default Happy Accidents

Up early this morning still on boat time. I went out to fire up tinkerbayl and the battery was dead. Jumped it off let it run for an hour and a half and it just barely restarted. So off to napa for a new high doller battery. I use high amp gel batteries to use the winch. They don't come cheap. Well it seems i paid full price for the old one a year ago, and a new bigger stronger model was on sale. By the time the paper work was done and the trade in done i got the bigger battery, a pack of fuses, and 3 cents back. Didn't cost a dime to replace the battery. May my whole 2 weeks go as well.

That sounds like a good deal. One you don't find often.

As long as your spending it so you can have fun be happy. Now take the money you have left and buy Peg something nice.

Workin'on da boat its hard to shop,so I catalog shop and on line stuff and we have a system. Peg knows, that if a package gets here with my name on it she wont open it. This morning while waitin'on da Napa store to open I wrapped 4 Christmas presents for her. One silly, one sweet, one smell good, and one very, very, nice.

Wow!! You did good! I haven't had to spend anything today so I'm happy. It's always a bonus when I have a no money day. That means I can have some left for next week's "have to" meals at work. I take my lunch the majority of the time, but there are just those days when everyone is urging you to come along or they are "buying in" food.
