Everything can be budgeted. I'm far from rich but figure ways to keep my property up to date.

Lack of funds to fix or high taxes are lazy excuses. Taxes are not higher in NH than anywhere else, in fact they are lower in many cases when you take in total taxes. Your home is your biggest asset and any improvement is an investment that not only improves your current life but increases the value of your property. Lack of motivation or education is more likely the reason. The big truck payment along with the increased gas use for someone that doesn't use a truck for work (about 25% of truck owners actually use them for work) eats up more income with no return on investment than a home remodeling project. VT, Maine and MA, and RI have higher overall tax burdens than NH.

I think you will find the plow has a keep back warning sign on it. Might be as much as 500 feet.

OMG! You’re gonna drive all that way. Must be almost 2 hours. Bring a sleeping bag and a cooked turkey to keep you alive.
BTW, try Google maps. Duh

Why do you tell people to google things. Now they won’t think I’m smart when I google stuff and tell them.

It soaks through but still keeps you warm. That’s why sheep wear it even in the rain.

Wool keeps you warm even when wet where as cotton kills certainly. Wool rules.

Reply to A Top Newport Restaurant Group Repeatedly Delays Response to Fed. Lawsuit Alleging Wage Violations by MavDrake
This is not the first time that headline has been used in regards to this story. It simply screams don’t trust this news source. Piss poor journalism.

Forget the weather, you can't predict it. Just learn to accept it. I visited New York once in February and walked around carrying my jacket and sweating from the the unseasonable heat wave. I have also been on vacation in Chicago in February and the windy city lived up to its name, bitter cold howling wind. But the food, museums and the hockey game were all still fantastic.
The same will apply to Boston. It might be snow covered in February and it might not be. But in the restaurants, pubs, museums and if you can snag some Bruins or Celtics tickets, snow won't be a factor. If this is when you can afford to go, go and and enjoy.
There is no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothes.

Reply to driving tests by isachalsen-
Don’t take the test until you are ready. Practice, practice, practice cause once you are on the road you are not only responsible for your life and those in your vehicle but for every other person on the road with you. Every time you drive is a road test. If you’re nervous now how will you be every time you get behind the wheel.
In short, if you have to search out the place that is easiest in order to pass, you are not ready to drive yet.

It's a wonderful event, but they need to let drivers know and THEY DID NOT. No signs, no notice. Press release wasn't even correct. Was 45 minutes late for work. Had I known., I would have gone much earlier and had breakfast in Newport. But the organizers and the bridge failed to notify drivers.
Total fiasco, but I hope it raised lots of money for the charities.
edit: sorry for the rant.

When you come home drunk you want to make sure you put the pick up in the garage not the living room. So you remember truck goes in red building I go in gray building.

First move would be to NOT use credit cards. If you can't afford it, don't buy it. Lock the cards up and use only for emergencies. I lived 15 years with only a debit card and cash. I only use credit cards now to get the points or cash back and pay them almost immediately after I make a charge, the same mentality as using cash or in other words I don't charge what I can't pay right now.
