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 :)

10/9 Expressions
What a mild weathered day. We bbq'd and my dad brought over a pumpkin pie. He was grousing about the size of the pie - he seems to think the size has shrunk and the price is a bit higher. I do remember reading about a pumpkin shortage :( We have leftovers to last a few more meals - so, no cooking for a while. We got in a bit more cleaning. I finally used my batenburg lace table cloth - with my $1.98 Wal-mart plastic sheet - off the roll in the fabric department. It is nice to change-up the look every once in a while. I went to Publix yesterday afternoon and got $25 worth of P&G products (actually it was more like $28 worth - and spent $10 after coupons - and $3 of that was taxes. I want to mail in for the "pink" bake ware - looks like a great set with a $40 value. Most of my bake ware is starting to look pretty shabby.
