Happy thought of the day

Damn I've got a lot of ammo!

Feel free to add your own happy thoughts if you are so inclined . . .

I'm glad I bought most of my guns years ago...before the prices went up!

My boss tells me I should be glad I still have a job, despite the decline in my salary. I am just glad I still remember all the escape routes, safe houses, water caches, and E&E routes "we" set up out of Phoenix in the late 70's and early 80's! (Welcome back, "Carter"!) I just wish I were still on the "Eastside" instead of the "Westside"!

The only time you can have too much ammo is if you are trying to swim.

Keep collecting when you can.

a little here... a little there... trying to find all the components is becoming maddening.. but not impossible.

Of course there is tons of .40 ammo everywhere.. thinking about buying another pistol just so I can get some of the .40 ammo.

I paid attention in a class once.... under report writing 101...

My happy thought... both my bikes and truck are paid for and I'm debt free (other than my mortgage)...

I got this advice the other day: If you are forced to choose between your house payment and your car payment - make your car payment. You can sleep in your car, but you can't drive your house to work!

Getting caught driving 94 in a 55 mph zone... and only getting a warning ticket.. It pays to wear a microminiskirt and heels some days I guess.

The weather was PERFECT up here in the PNW today. And, I've got good kids and an awesome husband who is gainfully and honorably employed. I have no complaints. (ok, that's not true but this isn't a political thread. )

Waking up to the sound of my sons padded feet running down the hallway on his way to watch saturday morning cartoons.

Remember when life was so simple?

We got a whole bunch of Girl Scout cookies today from the young ladies of Brownie Troop 721, Sierra Vista, AZ.

My morale is markedly improved

ANY day that you wake up and aren't looking at either Bars or Roots is a very Happy Day.
