Hi there from Illinois
HI, I just found this site and decided I had to join. This place is huge!! A person could get lost in here..lol. Im looking forward to reading all the tips and suggestions. I am a single parent, I work full time (much overtime also). I have 6 wonderful children, one left at home and will be having my 8th grandchild any day now!!! I have always watched how I spent my money and didnt think I was doing too bad until I started reading posts here and wow, there is so much more I could be doing!! Anywho, Im looking forward to meeting you and Happy Holidays.

Welcome!
" May we never let the things we can’t have or don’t have or shouldn’t have spoil our enjoyment of the things we do have and can have. As we value our happiness, let us not forget it. One of the greatest lessons in life is learning to be happy without the things we cannot or should not have."
