Do you spend or save your money? That is the question here...

Do you conserve your money or spend it? Well, we arrived home safely from our trip. My sister-in-law invited my husband and I to join her and her male companion on a little trip to Mississippi to see the dog races during spring break. He drives a school bus so that was the only time other than... Sign in to see full entry.

A lot to do today to get ready to leave, again...

Husband wants to go with his sister and friend to Mississippi to the dog races.... only a couple of days so packing a small bag today; meeting with the carpenter this morning about getting new flooring in the house we have on the market for sale; keeping the grandkids for awhile so daughter can move...

I thought it couldn't hurt to let him know I was praying for him...

All that my daughter had told us about their marital problems was that there was no communication between them. When we would have our summer swim parties with the kids, he never came and took part; always staying home and working in the yard or playing golf. But that was one thing she had revealed...

Some days I wonder why I'm even here...

You know those times when the day is overcast and dreary outside and you are feeling kinda blue on the inside. Depression never goes very far away from me. Tears can well up just thinking of bad thoughts of the past, so I try not to go there if I can help it… but the other day I was having those... Sign in to see full entry.

You can't fix it and you can't wish it away...

My oldest daughter and I were talking yesterday about the youngest daughter's move this next weekend. And even as late as today, they still have not told the two little boys about what is about to take place on their spring break! But the oldest girl found a really good video about divorce and...

Update on my life...

Painting is still in progress. Although, I wasn’t counting on painting three houses at once! It will be ready for youngest daughter and boys to move in to during spring break. And the owner-financed house that came back to us in the summer has been on the market and was in need of a lot of repairs... Sign in to see full entry.

I just want you to pay your bills on time! ...

In the mail yesterday, we received Three delinquent tax notices on three of our "Owner Financed" houses. They are suppose to pay their own taxes and insurance.... but are not always paid on time!! So instead of getting irate about the situation, I simply make a copy of these and put the "pink"... Sign in to see full entry.

I am like Kabu in some ways...

For you see she loves to paint things, like rocks, to improve the overall appearance of something. She takes a dirty old rock that most of us see as just a rock and transforms it into a colorful picture that she loves to share with others. I, too, love to paint. If there were any painting projects... Sign in to see full entry.

Are you redeemed?...

I received a Bath & Body Works gift card for Christmas and we don’t have that store in our little town so I decided to go online and purchase something. It had been awhile since I had tried to redeem a gift card on line and I kept looking for the option on each page it took me through as I was... Sign in to see full entry.

Addendum to this morning's post...

Well, breakfast was good at the casino and everyone was given a box of chocolates as we were leaving the dining room! Not a little box with 5 pieces; I'm talking about a rather large box for men and women! Of course I guess that was just another incentive to stay a little longer, right? And we did...
