We are a family of three in transition. We spent years being frugal and are now at a crossroad. We'd like to retire from our day jobs in two years or less. Our retirement goals are to provide our daughter with the best education she desires; travel; and find new careers - perhaps part-time that we really enjoy. I hope to post both "frugal" and "personal finance" information. NOTE: I am not a professional on either subject. My posts are purely entertainment :)

7/24 Expressions
Frugal deeds for the day: Turns out my husband paid to renew our Costco membership without paying attention :( Oh well, I spent my rebate check on groceries and found some good deals. My daughter and I love dolmadas (rice wrapped in grape leaves) - an extra large serving - $5.99. My daughter is diligently cleaning out the garage and even spray painted an old patio set - which we moved to the deck - out of the garage. Right now - we are thinking about getting a Fiat 500 - great gas mileage, comes with a $700 WM Giftcard - and decent price. I am still picking cherry tomatoes and bell peppers from garden - as well as rosemary and thyme. But, I need to keep a list of things to do - otherwise, this heat makes it very easy for me to convince myself to just relax.
