    11% gross to retirement
    10% takehome to tithe and offerings
    emergency fund maintained at 3000(works for me)
    credit card debt 7500
    mortgage free
    freedom accounts/sinking funds that ebb and flow
    then live on the rest!

    i am trying something new. LDS church advises savings or debt repayment should be the same as the tithe. 10% each.

    I don't like being cold but I don't like spending money every year on a new set of flannel sheets either when my heavy linen ones Ive had for years have out lasted my flannel ones far longer.


    I was going to mention LL Bean but Polly beat me to it..LOL.. They stand behind their product's 100%..Hope this help's..

    I do like flannel sheets in the winter, because I never get that ice-cold feeling from them that I get from regular sheets. I got a cheap set years ago from Target or K-Mart or something like that, and they have lasted through a lot of abuse!

    Well, I've slept on satin, cotton, flannel, jersey, and silk sheets. And my vote is the silk. Unfortunately the cost is prohibitive - like $200 a set. But my! Are they to die for! No sweating on those puppies! They were at my brother's. He picked them up for a song in India. Anyone here at the Village from India?

    Well I checked out the Fleece sheet's and they got mixed reveiws on Amazon & kohls...everyone agreed they are warm & soft..but alot of reveiws mentioned that they tend to have little fuzzies all over their blanket's and jammies even after washing them? Also mentioned was alot of static on their husband's leg hair's were getting a tingling feeling from the friction ( not to mention the ahhh private area is the first thing that came to my mind)...Since my dh goes comando ummm I'm sure it wouldn't go over to well with him..LOL..Thanks but I think I will pass on them..

    We were given a set of silk sheets about a year ago for DD's bed and they are to die for! DH and I have a king sized bed, DD a queen and DS a full. Obviously the sheets won't fit all three beds, but everyone still fights over them. In the summer months you couple those sheets with her extra thick pillow top mattress and sleeping in her bed is pure bliss.
