Good news?

I've been stressing pretty hard about getting our RV sold off, and it looks like that's gonna happen today... hopefully. I've had an ad for our RV and some other stuff on craigslist since last week, and I've had a few people interested, but no takers.

I reposted it yesterday, heard nothing all day long, and finally got a response from a guy who is supposed to be showing up this afternoon with cash in hand.

But here's the deal. We don't own it yet. So after I get paid today, I need to spend virtually every dime I have to make the last payment on the RV and get the title (assuming the owner will be home -- haven't been able to get in touch with him), run home with it, and hope the buyer doesn't flake out on us. Otherwise we're screwed.

If all goes well, then we'll have some money to set aside for a camper van. Originally, we were goint to travel in the RV, but this beast is just too big. Especially with gas prices being what they are. A camper van would be perfect. It would be a bit... uh... cozy... but it can go virtually anywhere, and if we get tired we can park overnight just about anyplace without having to worry about The Man tapping a flashlight on our window.

But keeping our hands off the cash would be a challenge. Diane and I are not known for saving money...
