As low as $21

personal checkbook
Personal checkbook starting the week we arrived in Florida. We deposited (top line) all the money we (combined) had from the Washington State University credit union (Cheryl was an employee at WSU)…$1398.33. 10 days later we had $410.13 to our name (bottom right).

One year later (August 30, 1985) we had $639.23 to our name.

Three years after arriving to Orlando our (bottom right) balance is $21.23.

Our five-year Orlando-arrival anniversary has us at $71.08.

 

Our checkbook balance was as low as $21 during our first five years at Disney.

And even at the five-year mark, we are at $71.

It was helpful for Chapin to see (last night) where we started because he’s never seen us struggle financially.

Truth is, we struggled the first 25 years of our (currently) 35-year marriage.

The more you travel, the less you should be taking

boarding pass
T-minus 35 minutes to home departure.

 

 

Traveling light is simple.

Pack only what you need.

Need only a few things.

Take nothing more.

Simple doesn’t equate to easy.

Repetition is the mother of all learning.

The more you travel, the less you should be taking.

Get it?

Organize to maximize your giving

The latest tools for staying organized. They arrived while i was in Glacier National Park last week.

 

Organize to maximize your giving.

In giving you receive.

Start a blog and write about your expertise.

Blogging is simple because you can do it on your own terms and on your own schedule.

If you can’t blog, this may be the uncovering of your opportunity, which is one of these two:

  1. You can’t write because you aren’t an expert (yet).
  2. You can’t write because you aren’t organized enough to dedicate the time and effort required to write like you mean it.

Which is it?

Did you do DU?

On the way home from lunch.

 

Florida living
It’s 5:30am as i write this…12 hours ago, downstairs.

 

We didn’t do Jungle Cruise…95-minute wait.

But we did do lunch at Skipper Canteen.

Did you do DU?

We stopped by as we drove home, but the doors lock after 5pm on a Saturday.

Here’s to hoping (and i have a great feeling) Thinking Heads becomes my exclusive booking agent.

Our goal in 1984 was to live within five minutes of Walt Disney World.

Mission accomplished since 1992.
