called

My dil is the one who handles the finances at their house. He's offered to take over numerous times and even though she says she wants him to she never handed anything over in the past. Well they got their taxes done & that's when he found out they made close to 50k last year and he blew a...

On Monday I spoke with a rep from the cable company and she gave me a $20.00 discount...which I was happy with until I realized even with the discount I would be paying $16.89 more per month than I was last year. So, today I called again and got another discount :). Now, we will be paying...

DH doesn't know and I plan to surprise him. I've been without my hall closet, a light in the bedroom closet and a light in my sewing room for 8 YEARS now. DH has attempted several times to fix the wiring problem but I'm at the point now I'm sick of living under these conditions and I called in a...

I woke this morning to late to get ready for church. My friend who is my neighbor went to get her coupons this morning at 5 am. Well I gave her $10 to pick up papers for both us. Her hubby is unemployed right now. So she had a total of $20 dollars because her mom gave her ten last night when...

I got a call from the school yesterday. DD9 has had some trouble in school in the past. SHe is a really sweet quiet little girl, and last year we were blessed with a wonderful teacher who realized she was having problems. She is so easily distracted it is unbelievable. She was sent for...

on my day off! I am SO tired! Our weather has been really crazy with up and down temps, storms and tons of rain. Ds has a dog that barks at thunder so I've had little sleep over the weekend as it stormed all night Saturday and Sunday. Friday my brother and his wife got into a big fight and...

The gastro nurse said that depakote can hurt the pancreas, but she also said that alot of the valporic drugs can. when your on stuff like this you have to get a liver blood test 12 weeks,to test the levels.Gastro nurse said doc would not change it it he did...

We are building beyond the baby EF. I'm doing all I can to beef it up. Is there a formula that would help determine what the right amount for it would be? I'd love a goal to work toward. Since we're really leaning to refinance to be rid of all the payments, and just a mortgage, that frees up a...

I just posted that she wanted to be a good friend with me, well she called him today. DH told me she had just called, and he was civil to her, but that was it. He said I didn't need to worry. I am a little upset by this phone call.

I was discussing our recent Gun Control debates with DH this afternoon. I made the off hand comment to him that if I ever thought someone was out to harm our children that I wouldn't hesitate for one second to put 10 bullets in someone's head. (I apologize if that was too graphic). DH sat...

I have been trying to reduce my bills and I finally got up the nerve to call my current credit card company and ask them to reduce my APR on my card. They are sending me a form to fill out and then I will send it back and it will be reviewed and a new, lower APR will be assigned. It's based on a...

Financial Peace Revisited finally came in. ( been so long I forget I asked for it ):lol3: I will be reading tonight...:hurray:

I recently read an article called "Money lies that Cost You Big." This author failed to mention one of the big ones. That is the one that says, "Convenience and quality come at a price." What we consider a necessary convenience is all too often a matter of "popular culture." It may have begun as...

Cox gave me a promo rate for 1 year. So now instead of paying $122.00 (bundled services) We will pay $104.00. $216.00 annual in savings!:sun:

The library finally called to let me know that two of the books I am on the waiting list for are in and I can pick them up. Tomorrow between the interview and kids' dental appointment I will pick up "The money answer book" and "financial peace planner". I am sooooooo excited.:bolt:
