Looks like a blessed full life. It is always a good day when you need to spend money AND you have the money to spend. That is such a gift. Doing things for the right reasons and with the right attitudes changes everything, too. Haven't stopped by in a while, but have to say it is a little jarring to see Miller doing things I remember Fletcher doing. Miller is growing so fast! He is becoming a real buddy and companion to Fletcher and not the baby anymore. Time is flying. And Evonnie turning six must make you feel like a veteran at this parenting thing. Happy birthday Evonnie!

The credit card companies hate my hubby and me too. We put 98% of our monthly expenses on the credit card and then pay it all off every month. Then we use the points for extras! Saving and paying for something is so much nicer than taking loans out. It's so rewarding. We just had our kitchen remodeled and it's paid for! It took years and years to save for it but so worth it. I keep trying to teach my niece about this life skill.

We are always in a desperate money situation since we all have disabilities. But something I really like to do is see what we already have that can be used in more than one way.

Also I am looking at wearing more skirts & dresses again. I am 5'8" & have long legs with a skinnier waist but hips so finding jeans is almost impossible for me anymore the way they make them.
