Well, we got our refund, and did awesome things with it! We put four new tires on our '81 Toyota (76,000 original miles, 48 miles to the gallon, we're keeping it forever, lol) and had a front-end alignment too. We paid off our Craftsman tractor. We have 1 1/2 acres, so this was great. We bought...

On the side of frugality I wanted to say to think carefully before you replace something that has worn out. We have had our microwave go to the dump but are not going to replace it. One can keep food warm by placing the plate, covered with tinfoil or the lid of the saucepan, over a bowl of...

Yesterday was a tough day, but I made a decision I only hope that I don't live to regret. I gave notice to my job as a teacher's aide.  As of the first monday in May I will try my hand at substitute teaching. The part that was hard is leaving something that I know is stable and brings in a...
