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 :)

9/23 Expressions
Frugal deeds for the day: I noticed a lot of complaints about the GCCF reducing claims substantially - that was not my case. Mine was reduced less than 1.5% - but I submitted 69 pages of documentation. BP paid 45% and were really slow. I think GCCF's mistake was publishing such short timelines in the beginning. Believe me, the longer it dragged past the published dates - I expected the worst - more of the same of BP. So, while I was not happy about the time it took, I was happy with the results in the end. I got the diamond pendant from JCP. It was sent by Fed-ex and it comes with a thin silver chain (I was not expecting that) - so, I am extremely please with and know my daughter will be too. I received coupons to receive a free pr of panties from Victoria's Secret. I was going to say the stock market looks like it was headed in the right direction - but must have jinxed it again ;( The rental agent said she has a potential renter for the house that is being vacated by the divorcing couple. So far, the IRS has not cashed the check I sent - I am sure it will be soon. Have started receiving property tax statements.
