We sold our dream

He was on one of his binge drunks, I prayed out to the Lord if he wanted me to get from under the stress of the BBQ for HIM to send a buyer for the BBQ.
We had no income for that week, and he finally got home from his drunk, and
I told him we needed to set up to sell BBQ that night.
We sat up at 4:30 as usual, and, was NOT busy, which was a first.
By 6:00 we were wondering where all our customers were.
At 6:30 a young couple and three little girls came up and ordered hot dogs.
Then, she came with a cell phone asking me to talk to Divina, who is our neighbor. I picked up the phone, and it was Divina, asking if the couple could look inside the BBQ Van, they were wanting to build one like ours to sell beans and tacos out of.
After talking for a short while, I asked if they wanted to buy this one, remembering the prayer I had just prayed earlier that week.
He said "how much" I told him 15,000. He said he was interested and would be back to look on Saturday.

Saturday came, and he actually showed back up, and, had his brother inlaw with him. He saw we were busy so asked if I would call him when it was time to close down so he could come back and look some more.

They showed up at 5:30 and left with a hand shake and a deal of paying cash, $12,500 for the BBQ Van!
WAS THAT A GOD THING OR WHAT!!!

We were under the impression they wanted to keep the BBQ and our name, etc
but, have now totally turned it into a taco wagon...
Our dream, is gone.

BUT GOD sent a buyer, it was so awesome!!

We sent out a note to all of our loyal "Booser Fans" and only one sent any response saying they were sad to see us sell. That was so devistating, do people not even care about anything anylonger? Guess we sold at the right time, if business was going to drop dead....
We at least sold it, didnt loose it like our first BBQ, that killed us emotionally.


IT shocked my partner into stop drinking!
or, at least out of his binge, he has been to detox, we went on a vacation to Missouri with hopes to move there.
The cost of living is so much less, but the wages are SO MUCH LOWER too.
Being scared is not something I am thrilled of feeling, one thing I have learned living on the edge has become the only way i have lived for 7 years. I dont want to live like that anylonger, but, going to Missouri for $6.50 an hour would totally SUCK!

Altho, my sister and her husband have asked us to bring our BBQ down there!
and, now we have no BBQ VAN!

Since the vacation, my first in 4 years...
We have the desire to move out of state, to start totally over, but....
not knowing about any real jobs down there, is the scarey part.
Do we step out in total faith, or, is my "maturity" finally kicking in...
I used to jump on the chance to move, and start over, but.....

When ever i have had a vision, and put it into motion quickly, but I have never succeeded financially. Always had great success in putting it together, but, never being able to make money to live on. SO WHAT AM I MISSING HERE?
