your annual income… Our annual income will be over $2000 so from $4000 to $5000 for a home would be about right. I think we can get by with that and build what we want. If we have $1000 when we're ready to build ( and I feel certain we will) why we'll be set. If we were to borrow $4000… it would cost us $24 a month. You can't rent that cheap anywhere. And we probably would pay more, thus cutting down the interest and time required to pay up. No, dearest, I haven't got cold feet - I am looking to the whole thing eagerly, because, I love you, B.J.
