    Default Lesson learned

    Hi everyone,

    I found this site back in November/December last year, I was on here everyday, cutting my grocery bill and actually saving some money for vacation. After vacation I started to slack off and kind of stopped coming on here and started back on not keeping track of what I was spending. What a difference it made I have to say that this website helped me out A LOT! So I'm trying to get back on track with my spending again!!!

    We all fall down sometimes and we just pick ourselves up by our bootstraps and start over again. You can do it since you have done it before.

    I'm right there with ya. I keep falling off and climbing back on only to fall off again. You would think my hard head would eventually get softened by all the lumps from falling off. But here I am once again climbing back on the wagon. I really have to get a handle on our money and back to my frugal ways. Good luck to you!

    I've got to try a whole lot harder too. With prices going up I feel like I'm fighting a loosing battle.
