    I did the same thing over a year ago. Then we bought a house and my suspension money went to a new washer and dryer (it's a really nice set, I swear). I finally had to sell my motorcycle to get stuff for the truck.


    Good luck

    I have found that I am less than responsible with money. it is much better if she handles it. She does let me buy pretty much whatever I want, just got a new Plasma, NQA.
