How? Did the Stimulis help your hobby needs?

When I get it, I hope,I hope!

I then will be stimulated enough to get that new Camera I need so’s youse guys can see pichurs ob me projects, ryte ? No really! the $ 600 dollar ones went entirely to paying back medical bill co-pays!

I didn’t even get to go the the TEXAS shrine of Burgers-Yup ! No What-A-Burger for me. But my doctors and maybe their staff did. Well! one stop there by Proxy don’t cut it. Anyway, I got my eye on a camera similar to the one I took the original photos with. It needs to be a size my hands don’t fumble with and will fit a desktop tripod!.

Then you modelers out there that asked, I will try and inundate you with How-Too and W.I.P photos! See! That’s my dream! I like to help out, But in explaining things, I have learned that a photo indeed speaks a thousand words ( or to use another phrase,(Photos Speak volumes,without making a sound! )

So there you have it. I must be stimulated for this to happen. So my Prayer is-Dear Uncle Biden, Or is it still Uncle Sam? Because I haven’t heard of Uncle Sam in years. What did he do Retire?? anyway so my Prayer is" Dear Uncle, Biden, or Sam, May I please recieve a new Stimulus check. I’ve been a good boy Honest!"

Both the first and second went to bills. This latest one (her’s and mine) will go to the wife for a down payment on a badly needed newer vehicle for her.

Priorities you know.

With it and our tax return we’re paying off the wifes Escape. This choice should help me stay in the semi retired state I want to enjoy.

The $600 one will pay the fuel bill for a one week mining vacation at the end of April. Motorhome sucks a lot of fuel in a 1000 mile round trip, and have to take the Jeep and a trailer to haul the gear.

Uncle’s $1,400 will go in the bank for help in the house remodel for new subflooring, and insulation in the 1973 mobile home.

Not directly, $2400+$1200 so far, just went to improve overall financial and material health.

I have bought probably 1/2 dozen kits,but would have with or without stimulus

1 and 2 went into savings. #3 will be used to partially pay for the new couch I bought after my old one had a catastrophic failure of its reclining mechanism.

I want every dime to go to models and beer. My wife wants new living room furniture. Take a big guess who’s going to win that battle.

Bills bills and bills. Having just lost my job there’s no hobby $.

Its going into the burial fund.

First two went to pay down the debt that was rung up in the course of financing all my hobbies.

Third one likely will as well. They will have trimmed about 7 months off my self imposed repayment schedule, and brought me that much closer to the debt free life I should have been living all along.

Used both to help pay for kids books and tuition.

Hey TB, you thinking something like this? It’s what my last stim check paid for. Been wanting to go digital 35mm for quite a while, so as they say; I has arrived!

.

Hmmm…yeah, I get it.

I’m lucky. I’ve no debt. I do what I want, when I want, with what I have/get.
Except for the dentist I haven’t been to a doctor in 42 years.
That’s what I get from being single and totally free from stress.
Wouldn’t have it any other way.

Been eyeing me a nice gunbelt rig and a new Ruger Vaquero .45 or a Uberti cattleman pistol to take down to the range when my check arrives.

Raindrops in a barrel of debt.

But with things coming back, I have a new job that pays well and is back to my training. I hope to suceed and work into my mid 70’s.

Bill

Press on, Billy Boy, press on. And all our best.

It’s 'Bill".

Yup!

Not quite as big, But, you got the idea. I think the one I am looking at is possibly the Son of yours.

Hey,Hey!

Yeah part that doesn’t go to savings and checking will. Gotta have the new Camera but for sure some more mags and Bullet thingies for my 1911~

Hi Bill!

Hey guy, I wish you the best on your new endeavor. Many of us are Better this late in life. You will surpass your hopes. Of that I am sure!
