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 :)

8/23 Expressions
Frugal deeds for the day: Yesterday, I earned enough points on recyclebank.com to order a "People - InStyle" magazine subscription. Today, I got in on the Seattle's Best Coffee Sample on facebook. This weekend, I plan to start a major decluttering - our community is having its fall yardsale. Money will all go to my daughter and husband since they will conduct it. But this year - I asked they really price things to go - to get the stuff out. I want to upcycle some items - I need more walking pants for the winter - I think I can use current sweat pants and use it as a pattern and I have plenty of elastic. This has been a long week. I walked today too - but, I am cutting out of the heavier cleaning for this evening. Everyone needs a break :)
