May not make you smile, but it makes me smile ❣️ My baby booked a plane ticket home for Mother's Day. Woohoo!!! 10 whole days. I'm ready. P.S. I apologize. I'm just so very excited because I had to do without them for Thanksgiving, Christmas AND my birthday. Finally. I miss my baby.

"Nude pics" - I can't wait until I'm at a jam session or party and a fellow musician has a nude pick. I'll ask him if he has other nude pics in his pocket.

Chevies, as most vehicles, need to be replaced every 10, 20 years or so. Don't know their price in '91, but in '91 I bought 300 shares of one of my best stocks at $26.00 each, $7,800. total. They split, 2 for 1, three times, my 300 shares becoming 600, then 1,200, to currently 2,400 shares. The cost per share thus went from $26.00 to $13.00, then $6,50 and now $3.25. Last year the price per share went to about $60.00, a few months ago it was about $44.00 and recently about $49.00. Quite a number of quality companies have increased the dividend payments annually for 5, 10, 20 and 30 years, a fairly few even longer. This one has done so for upwards of 30 years. Two years ago a memorable time appeared: their quarterly dividend cheques added in pne year to the $7,800. original price paid. But let's not forget: that $7,800 would have bought a great deal more goods and services (even Chevy trucks - or investments) than they're able to provide today! ole (frugal) joyfuelled

It's Friday! Happy Friday everyone!
