What is the best compliment anyone can give you?
We get compliments all the time, they tell us our girls are super nice, we have clean beds, they love our spray. And that they get really dark in our beds. We have the older style beds. Hence, I can work on one if it goes down kinda like if I had a 1980 chevy and it broke. I can get a Chiltons and fix it, I don't need a computer guy to come fix it. Which saves money in turn I can buy the best lamps available for the beds.

To whom much is given, much is required Luke 12:48
