Haven't been around in a LONG while!
Hello everyone,
I haven't been around in a LONG while, but need to come back over here for some frugal ideas and such. The past couple of years have been VERY hectic and full of lots of CHAOS and such. Some things that have happened since I last checked in:
We now are a family of 5, had baby number 3 on 11-19-04. My dad has had TONS of medical problems: He was in and out of the hospital for about 1yr with Kidney problems, Diabetes, and heart trouble. He has been on dialysis since July '05 and he is doing MUCH better. My DH lost his job in April '05 and was on umployment 6 months then that ran out so he is activately looking for FULL time employment and we are living in a transistional housing program. We only have 3 months of living here(it is a 6 month program and we have been here since April). I have been doing about $400-500 a month of focus groups and just rejoined AVON, so hopefully with those income helpers and getting back to my frugal ways, I can begin helping the family without having to go to work!!
Looking forward to being around here more often!
