What did you spend your third transfer on?
I have been longing to have my own cattle like the others in my village, so when I received my third transfer, I bought a cow and I am almost starting to milk it.I have of a longtime been asking seats from neighbors whenever I hosted visitors in my house, so to make an end to this, I bought three more sets of furniture.I no longer have to panic when I have visitors as I have enough now. The remaining amount I used to buy corn for my family to feed on. I am o happy and grateful for the transfers I received from GD.
