Almost sounds too good to be true!

Yes, it does sound too good to be true.  But, my deal for Big Blue sounded that way but turned out to be true.

Absolutely.  The conversation went something like this:

Gary: This can't possibly be true or real.

Janey: But, what if it is?  The worst that could happen is that you get there and he doesn't exist.  So you are out a few days and gas to and from.  But, if it is real it is the best deal you could hope for.  And, you need to try.

Gary: Thanks!!!!!!

And, it was real.  Extremely real.  We brought back a treasure trove of parts, and a truck that needed help but not money.  So far the most expensive "repair" has been to have a vacuum pulled and freon added to the A/C.  Yes, I've done a lot of work on it, but basically I've spent essentially nothing.

It seems to me that the real deal is Janey!

Amen, brother!

David knows, but Janey and I celebrate 49 years of marriage on Wednesday.  I thank God for her daily as she has been such a blessing in my life.
