Wife is a nurse for a spine surgeon.

I've been wheeling the same Jeep for over 18 years. Its slowly turning into a buggy because I can't afford to build one from scratch.

We live by that Belzona stuff here at work. You should make a good living just off this place.

time for a new wife
 
I make toilet paper :****:

I just wheel a regular Jeep but love to go on trips wherever I can.

Also enjoy going to watch the bouncers do their thing! If I can't afford it at least I can watch them do it.

My Jeep mods and trip money come from overtime and working on the family farm during harvest season (actually working now harvesting corn). I have a separate checking account just for my Jeep and trip money. Its not used for anything else. My paycheck from my normal job supports the family but if I work a day of overtime or my farm work it goes to the Jeep fund. That way there's no way my wife can say I'm spending too much. When it's gone I quit making trips or buying mods till it's replenished.
 
I run the storm water department for my local county gov. I don't have a buggy, nor could I afford one at the time. Watching and :drinkers: is about all my budget will allow.
