    Good night trolling

    I was in our backyard tonight loading my little 4x8 trailer, "Lil Scrapper", with some light steel when my 8 year old recomends we go out to try to find some scrap (gargage night here). We all hop into the wife's Explorer, hook up "Lil Scrapper" and in 30 minutes, we score a washer, dryer and a microwave at three separate spots. Trailer is now full and ready for a trip to the yard! Thanks buddy!

    LOL my daughter came to me tonight and said she wanted to go to the rodeo and stock show here in denver. I pointed to the shed and told her start stripping wire I love having the TV degausing cables hanging from nails in my shed for the kids to do when they want money.

    I love it !!! Hey, they need to learn early on that if they want something, they need to earn it. I want to give my kids everything they want and I try to do my best to do so, but there are some things they will just have to bust their little butts to get themselves.

    LOL yeah my daughter wanted to go to basketball camp this summer. I pointed at the shed and she stripped 30 pounds of those tv deguasing cables to pay the 100 bucks for the camp.

    LOL if big brother wants to give me the money for them to do what they want then he can give it to them. I pay to house feed and cloth them. they want any more than that they better do some chores.
