I want it! |

Oh so tempting! I just need to back away and think of something else. Think of maintenance, roof leaks, pack rats, rattlesnakes and scorpions. Think of road erosion, frozen pipes, the brutal UV rays beating down on it and peeling off the paint and drying out weather stripping. Think of all of the new projects that it would add to my list, putting up gutters and water collection system, adding electrical, plumbing, insulation, drywall. More weekends doing chores without being free to enjoy the benefits of low cost living because I still have my house and full time job.
No, no, no. I am sure that Phil's Sheds will have another clearance sale within the next 4 year when I am closer to paying off my mortgage and ready to semi-retire. I cannot fall in to the trap of buying more projects when I don't have the time to finish them! The cost of maintenance over the next 4 years might possibly negate any savings from buying it on sale now. It is nice to know that these sales do happen. This is the first time that I have stumbled on a sale. I didn't even know that they had used sheds. When the time comes and I am ready to buy a shed I will certainly go to their lot and check for any used sheds first. I'll be ready to pounce the next time an opportunity like this comes along as long as it is in 2017 or later when I have the time tackle a major project like this.

You are so strong! I am impressed. I would have been straight in there
It was soooo tempting but I had to think about all of the junk that I need to get rid of before I can move back out there and I convinced myself to wait.
