Hello again
Wanted to say hi and I'm back..have been gone a while as life got a little intense. I lost my uncle to cancer, and it hit me really hard...saving money seemed silly when I was missing work so I could be with my family during such a difficult time. I'm feeling a lot better now though, and getting back into my homelife. However, with expensive fertility treatments impending, and really wanting to change our living situation as well, I reallized I knew exactly where I needed to be

Hope the spring is bringing lovely things to you all...

I'm sorry about your uncles death. We are always here when you need us. A person can hop on the frugal bandwagon and hop off the bandwagon anytime they want. We are not here to judge you. Best of luck with fertility treatments and keep in touch as you need us.

Welcome back. I'm so sorry about the loss of your uncle. You're right, that sort of experience does put things into perspective. Although it's part of the life cycle, it's the hardest.
Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.
