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 :)

11/4 Expressions
Frugal deeds for the day: Today, we had a health fair at work. Got several "reusable bags" and some great freebies - dental floss, pens, etc. I am "off" tomorrow - but will have to drive my daughter to school for a meeting. On my way home, I will stop at Burger King for a freebie cup of Seattle's Best coffee - a freebie every Friday this month at participating BK's. I am going to make a couple of pumpkin pies tonight with the puree I made from my $1.99 Aldi pumpkin. Tomorrow, I hope to pick up some more freebies in coupon books that I have - may stop for a freebie breakfast sandwich, and I have another buy anything get a six pack of pansies coupon. And not to jinx the stock market - but it did really well today. Hopefully I can get back on my retirement track. Oh, and the new YMCA is open. We don't have cable at home - but I can watch cable at the "Y" while exercising - just need to bring my own earphones/buds.
