Good News Friday!

I am linking up with with fellow bloggy friend Grumpy Grateful Mom for her Good News Friday meme.  This is a great idea to focus on what is good in our lives.

So what is my good news?  In just three months our van will be paid off!
Back when we first bought it in 06
We checked it out yesterday.  Imagine our surprise!  There is less than 50K miles on it.  And we even drove across the country in it!  That is most definitely good news!
Do you have good news to share??

That is FANTASTIC NEWS! We have been without car payments for almost 4 years now. It feels so good to be free of them (although my husbands car is not the most reliable as of now).

happy day! Don't forget to go out for a big ice cream celebration the day you hand over that last bit of moola!

Way to go...

Great news!! Especially with such low miles! My van is paid off, but I'm not sure it will survive another year.

I'm with Melanie--I hope you go out and celebrate!

Thanks for adding your news!!!

The first month without payment you should go out for a fancy dinner!

That IS good news! Not having a car payment is the best feeling in the world! I keep hoping our car holds up for awhile, so we have enough savings to pay in full when we have to get a new one!!

A Leave of Absence

Image
I just wanted let you all know that I am taking a (short) leave of absence. I was feeling under the weather last Friday, and Saturday I was a lump. By Monday I felt almost normal again. Tuesday even better! By Wednesday night the whole left side of my face felt completely packed. Today(Thursday) I am at death's door. Or maybe it's at mine! All I know is, I haven't felt this crappy in a long time. I spent the day at my mom's and mostly slept. Thanks Mom. Now Rich is home and he is running the show. I shall return...as soon as I stop feeling like this.

Dancing with the Stars---Dead

Image
That is how the show was introduced on Halloween night.  "Dead, from Hollywood, it's Dancing with the Stars!"  with your host, Tom Boooo-geron! Oh and Brooke who didn't get a play on her name.  Tonight, the dances are all spooktacularly themed.  Plus there is also a team dance. David and Kym 1-800-868-3406 David and Kym are dancing The Cha Cha and David wants to add magic to the act, so they bring in a professional magician to help with some basic tricks.  I enjoyed their Cha Cha.  It was fun. Len said it had  lots of tricks and treats and that David turned himself into a dancer! Bruno told him he has got the prestige, and that he was a natural at turning tricks. Carrie Ann said his improvement was phenomenal. She said he was polished and finessed, but that he needed to work on his holds. Scores: Carrie Ann:  8 Len: 8 Bruno: 8 Total: 24  JR and Karina 1-800-868-3410 JR and Karina are dancing the Tango to Ghostbusters. Why do they give such ch
