New here from Ohio
I don't remember how I came upon this website but I have joined and check back here everyday. This is my first post so here goes!
I have been married to my husband for 33 years. We have 2 daughters ages 30 and 27. The younger one is still at home and my other daughter just moved out. We live in Elyria, OH near Cleveland.
My husband has been on disability since 2006. I quit work as an accountant last year because of some health challenges.
We can use all the help we can get to reduce our expenses and live more simply. Our income has been greatly reduced and sometimes it is hard to choose what gets paid. Our biggest problem is covering medical expenses over what insurance covers.
We live in a nice apartment with our daughter, 2 beagles, 3 cats, 2 cockatiels, a lovebird and a Quaker parrot.
I am so glad I found this site and look forward to learning a lot here!Last edited by beverlyhouts; 04-14-2009 at 11:14 PM.

Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.
