I've been gone a while

For no apparent reason, I've been busily doing nothing really productive. Good news is my garden is growing like it has been watered with methamphetamines and all my cars are running pretty good.

I've made a little progress on the 59 Rustbucket Plymouth in the shop. I also cleaned that dump up and got an alignment machine from a buddy of mine. If I could get rid of some 1980 and older Dodge truck parts that are in my way I'd be set.

Widdle Gurl is doing great. She's crazy about bubbles and painting now. She'll blow bubbles in the yard for hours and hours. Of course, she does not notice that it's 98 degrees and I'm sweating like Obama on a lie detector. She is doing well in her speech therapy sessions too.

I would like any input on how we can pay off our mortgage faster without robbing a bank. We've already cut our expenses to the core (no sattelite, best deal possible on phones and interweb, cut the power usage for a lower bill, best insurance deals available, etc.) but we can't seem to come up with enough to make a few extra payments per year. Right now we can only get one or two extra per year at best.
