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 :)

3/26 Expressions
Frugal deeds for the day: So, what was I doing yesterday? My daughter and I attended an auction. Pictured above are two of our "winnings" - Eastlake chairs. I have always wanted them - but never liked the price - they must be out of favor right now - I am going to attempt to re-upolster (sp) them myself - someday. We also "won" two pictures (mainly for the Victorian frames), two lamp bases, a nice "Secretary" desk/cabinet, and 4 art glass vases. I did some major cooking, worked on my "throw", and am still pooped today. So, I will be hitting the hay early today to try and recover. I had a short to do list today - but really didn't get much done, guess I am giving myself a break today - and hopefully, I can pick-up the slack tomorrow.
