Everything is going well on the home front and money is going into savings every week. I have been working and having my husband home at night has been nice. We finally just started using the 2001 Toyota yesterday. It [...]

This week was a good week! Before work on Thursday, we had a parent/teacher conference for my youngest daughter. It went very well. On top of her getting straight A’s the whole year, we were commended on her behavior. The teacher then asked us our secret for having such a wonderful [...]

The attorney emailed us our information regarding our court date. They call it the 341 meeting of creditors.  It is March 24th. When I seen the date-I knew it looked familiar.

Well hello 2009! This year for me is all about making my goals! I know, we all have New Years Resolutions but how many of us actually stick with them? I am one of those people so using the term “New Years Resolution” will just fly by me. It is all about [...]

So this morning I woke up and took a shower like normal. I got out and almost fell. I had no balance on my right side and I got light-headed. I felt horrible almost as if I was really drunk! I was nauseous and very dizzy. My husband kept asking me if I wanted [...]

Well we officially moved this weekend and like with everything else in our lives lately-it didn’t go without a hitch-or 2 or 3. Ahhh, if you ever think you have bad luck, you have no idea. Start moving day off with:
