When I think of times that I was really happy, I always remember this picture. It was at a wrestling event in Cleveland. I am not sure exactly what I was cheering for, but just my whole “being” in this shot says pure and absolute joy. I was so happy. I think it shows! Other […]

Hahaha, that sounds like it could be the topic of a bad daytime talk show. When I say this, I am talking about food. Sometimes I want to save a lot, and sometimes I don’t want to do a lot. So these go-to’s help me out. Let me just say here that these ideas are […]

The title of this post sounds like it could be a nursery rhyme song. Financially and convenience-wise, this little guy was a success. I love the smell of turkey or chicken roasting in the oven. This weekend was supposed to be very cold, so I figured it would be the perfect time to make one. […]

Friends and Family. Family and Friends. Besides food and shelter, what else do we really need? Since JB’s diagnosis last week, I’m trying hard, so hard to focus on the good things that I have that are around me. I am very happy with the Family I have. For me, that includes friends. Pretty much […]

“Spoil yourself every once in a while. You deserve it.” This has been a hard week for me. Very hard. In addition to not feeling well since Thanksgiving time, getting the diagnosis for JB last Monday almost destroyed me. Thankfully I believe I figured out what was wrong. Turns out it could have been a […]

They were right, those weather people from the news. We got snow, and we got a lot of it. Yeah sure, people think it looks pretty. I don’t really agree. It’s still snowing and blowing, so there is no sense to go out and begin shoveling. Jeff may or may not be able to get […]

This gorgeous boy is my JB. He is the sweetheart-part-of-my-heart that we took with us when we left for Pennsylvania from Florida. He became my third of three in September, and I wouldn’t have had it any other way. I cannot believe I love him this much, but I do. In November, Jeff and I […]

I am a gift giver. I enjoy giving presents to those I love. I find the hunt of finding just the right gift for the right person to be very exciting. It makes me happy. And usually, the recipient is happy as well. This is part of the reason I believe that you always have […]

Yesterday I wrote about things that I think are a waste of money, or rather things I’ve done that wasted my funds. That got me thinking about things I do think are worth my finances. As I have said before, I just love beer. I have for a very long time, and I don’t see […]

I really don’t INTENTIONALLY waste money. Sometimes it just happens that way. Recently I was thinking about a few sort-of stupid mistakes that I have made. Like they say, live and learn. I would rather not have that pertain to my finances, though. Now none of these examples are going to put me into bankruptcy, […]
