Update, I spent the last 2 years traveling the nation as a contractor for the Navy. I maintained ships.
Able to pay all my debts off and buy some cool toys. Been home for a month now and working on finishing the interior of our cabin.
Bought a couple atvs for the boys and an arsenal for the stead. Got an old Lincoln redface to put on my 3/4 ton so I can start a small weld business. Got a case tractor with a front bucket. Things are way better than sleeping in a tent.
