Building Home

It is so much fun being a home owner.

We looked for a house for almost 10 years; and now we are building a fence, installing gutters, and constructing a play set for our children in our very own backyard.

And I don’t want to hear another word about Americans not spending money. I have never spent so much money in my entire life: toilets, paint, light bulbs, diapers, nails, screws, lumber, tools, sod, printer cartridges, groceries, fish food, appliances, brakes, VeggieTales, and anything else you can think of…

WE BOUGHT AT LEAST TWO OF ‘EM!

We’re putting so much money into this economy, Obama actually called us when he got off the phone with the Chinese.

We’re spending so much money, the other day at Home Depot, when the clerk gave us the total, the register read out and receipt both read simply “mad cash.”

We have our own line on the US budget recently passed by Congress.

We’re actually printing our own currency. Not only is it recognized by the US government, but it’s valued higher than the dollar.

Our contracting alone accounts for 5% of state employment.

In the true spirit of Obama-nomics, we have even offered a grant to conduct squirrel research to determine how to keep those less-and-less-cute-everyday rodents from eating everything we plant….and how we might use them to produce green energy…and what type of ranged weapon will best get their attention and send a very clear signal about the boundaries of our property (though you can imagine, the lefties…and my daughters…ain’t too happy ‘bout that last one).

Seriously, we are very thankful for all God has provided and we rejoice in having a yard for the squirrels to invade. It is a lot of fun to watch our little “squirrels” chasing the neighborhood squirrels.
