Lol lucky.

Ahh i see i see. Well better then paying a mortgage though?

@Ivvy - Not a lot LOL. Bored outta my mind. Had a week of work, and have done sweet f all xD.

We still pay a mortgage bill each month. Dx

Ohh for reals. I thought your father in law owned it free hold for some reason xD.

If I remember correctly, it's been paid off once before but they took out a mortgage on it a few years back. The bill isn't too high. Especially compared to what it was at before Wesley's mom passed away. It was roughly $700 a month and they would not lower it even when she explained that she had cancer. It was months after she passed away that they approved it.

OHH i see. Grr stupid money lol. Wish we didn't need it. I wouldn't mind living back in the days and living off the land.

Same here. It would makes a lot of things easier. Course, some things (only because we're used to modern conveniences) would be tougher.

yeah, instant gratification sure has made us lazy.

@Liz - Yahh so true xD.
@Hummy - Mhmm.

Mhm. And I would be lying if I said that I could do without all things that make me lazy.

Yeah me too haha. But i so want a country life. I hate the city

City's too noisy. *makes face* I like living out in the sticks. It's quiet.

i would love to live in the sticks.

Most we have to worry with is stuff like animals getting loose/attacking and if it snows bad, we can't go anywhere.

what kindc of animals?
bears, large cats?

Wolves, coyotes, bears, foxes, possums, to name a few. Haven't personally seen any wolves or coyotes. Did see one bear in the back yard years ago.

Wow, okay we don't have to worry about any of those animals in NZ. Cept Possums but they're harmless.

Yeah, we don't worry much about the possums either. But they make a lot of messes.

Yeah they're more pests then anything else. Stuff goin outside and seein a bear in your backyard! LOL

Well, technically we had walked roughly 50 feet from where the edge of the trees meet the area we keep mowed. But the bear was down a side road that we use to drop off stuff like broken fridges and all. Scared me to death. :lol:

i watched a show about raccoons the other day.
they are a mennis!

Woulda scared me to death too Liz lol. I saw a programme on animal planet about a lady who fed bears and didn't care that they would constantly be around her house eating stuff and just camping out. She'd even go up to them and touch them and stuff... And then one day one of them ate her.

OH have you guys seen the honey badger?? Now that's one crazy animal LOLL

seriously, one ate her?!!!!!
holy crappolla!
