We like purchasing long term buy and hold properties and this fit our investing strategy to a tee.

I read, slept, and ate real estate. 

Couldn't make the car payment because the dog ate the credit card they were going to make their car payment with, and then the sister in law stole their last beer, so you know they had to make a choice... whatever. 

Alas, I chose to keep it civil/easy for a smooth ride to closing and ate the remediation cost.

I spotted a TED talk Emilie Wapnick about what to do when there is no one thing that you're passionate about.

We ate out a handful of times in that whole year.

I wanted to stay longer but my wife insisted it was time to rent our own place lol.My wife also gets 1 free meal from her restaurant for every 4 hours she works so she usually ate free twice a day sometimes getting 3 free meals a day. 

They are rolling this out as an internal memo that all branches must follow to a TEE.

Deer, turkey, squirrels, possums, raccoons, armadillos, rabbits, turkey vultures, (one circling out there right now) hawks, eagles, coyotes, a bear or two, and one nasty groundhog that ate all the blossoms off my pansies!

Plus we ate the about $300 pig for the birthday.
