When I first signed up "InOverMyHead" was exactly how I felt about this truck. Not anymore. Thanks to all the posts, help and advice, I kinda feel like I can do this, and that I'll have a place to go if (when) I get in Over My Head! Thanks everyone.

At the same time a little girl (ok, she's 19) that we had as a foster child and had tried to adopt (which didn't work out :-( showed up and we've been making room for her while she "figures out" what she wants to do.
I'm going to be taking lots of pictures since I'm getting ready to pull the cab off the frame but it looks like they might be delayed for a time.

Of course after the room is ready for the little one. Good luck! Did you want to change back to "InOverMyHead" again?????

Maybe you could try to get that 19 YO to join you with a helping hand when you need it and it could turn out to be a good opportunity building a work ethic, confidence, as well as the sense of accomplishment. The good feeling you get from helping others is priceless. Plus you usually get to learn something new. Good luck with all the changes headed your way.
