While sitting in the van, waiting to cross from Mexico into the US, I was bored. So, I engaged in some trivial pursuit. I did a rough estimate and came up with the possible number of round trips I have made from Mexico into Texas and from Texas back into Mexico. In almost 14 years, that comes to about 3,550 trÃps. And each round trip costs about $5.00 in tolls, depending on the current value of the dollar. So, that would mean that I have spent around $17,700 in tolls. And If I spent an average of 30 minutes of wait time on the bridge for each trip, that would mean about 106,080 minutes or 1,708 hours WAITING to cross the bridge. Now, I am sure that all my readers will find this information USEFUL!!!

useful...hummmmm.....amazing...yes!Girl, what could you have done with $17,000???? So now that you are on the other side of the bridge what do you plan to purchase with your savings??? Isn't it amazing when we stop and add up where our $$$ goes? I'm sure now on this side of the bridge it will just go to some other expense. Hope your Sunday is blessed! Love you
