The Build and Adventures of Bearbait

This week has turned around for the most part!

1)I was offered a position at the Yellowstone Club as an assistant property manager temporarily so that I’m trained properly to be a Property Manager. Could only take a couple months until they bump me up.

2)Had our first major ultrasound today! Our baby girl is healthy and above average size apparently.

3)The rash my wife had that I spoke of earlier this week turned out to be shingles and was super painful. It is subsiding and she is doing better.

4)Took the Jeep in for the rocker arms, it’s going to be way cheaper than I expected. He had to order the parts so Monday it will be fixed!
(Had to rent a car so we could get it checked out, driving a tiny Ford Fiesta was kinda embarrassing [emoji23])

Praise the Lord for how the week ended!

Awesome and good to hear :thumb:
 
Glad to hear things are looking up after a rough start.

Best of luck with the new job. Sounds like you are moving up in the world, and glad to hear the baby and momma are doing better.

Shingles suck! But they are better than what you suspected at first.
 
Glad to hear things are significantly improving for you, I remember way back in high school when one of my buddies had a fiesta "pimped" out, it was hilarious

Not a bad end at all, I still need to figure out the F250 but as long as one vehicle is up and running we are fine

Thank you! It will definitely be a step in the right direction, this new job will be more of a consistent paycheck since stocking sheetrock was piece rate. Super busy and good money from the beginning of summer through the fall then slow in the winter and spring, this week I only had 2 days of work.

Shingles do suck just by seeing how much pain my wife was in, the nerve pain was unbearable for her. I’m just glad it didn’t last longer than it did.

Thank you! The shingles were definitely a bummer and worse than the Chinese virus lol we never officially had it but I’m pretty sure we did

Thank you very much! The first few days have been awesome with my new career! I am loving it and I’ve been placed in a great neighborhood with great families.

Absolutely, I’ve been putting my all into it. As of now I am an assistant, but I have a feeling I will be a property manager in the next month. The guy I’m shadowing has a promotion coming in the next couple weeks and fingers crossed it’s me who will take care of his member’s homes once he moves to his new position.

So what did they find with your Jeep. I see you mentioned that they were going to replace rocker arms. Bad roller bearings? Anything else?

Sorry I’m just responding about this, all they did was replace my rocker arms on the passenger side. The roller bearings were part of the rocker arm. They said if I waited longer to replace them I would’ve had to replace my cam shaft
 
So I’ve been trying to think of a way so that my wife can stay at home with our baby after she arrives in May and even homeschool since we don’t trust the direction schools are going. (Great thing is, my wife used to teach early childhood education for 9 years [emoji16])

I don’t know why we didn’t think of this sooner, but we are finally going to make our side hustle a full time at home job for my wife! We have been making a big push this week on it and hopefully it takes off the way we envision.

Good luck... I wish we could pull something like that off without drastically changing our lifestyle
