Frugalwoods!

I just finished reading the book:   Meet the Frugalwoods

https://www.amazon.com/Meet-Frugalwoods-Achieving-Financial-Independence/dp/0062668137/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1522014532&sr=1-1&keywords=frugalwoods

and I must admit it has been one of the most influential books of my life!   (at 66 years young, I might add)...

It's TIME to take CONTROL of our finances!   Sheesh.  We've both been retired now for nearly 2 years and I'm tired of having $35 left over at the end of the month.  ENOUGH, ENOUGH, ENOUGH!

So, I'm instituting a "NO BUY" month next month (April).   NO extra spending.  NO fabric.  NO Michaels.  NO JoAnn's.  NO Hobby Lobby.  I'll be making journals with the supplies I have on hand.  I need to complete 3 to replace the 3 I've sold this month already.

If you haven't read her book, the link is above.   She also has a blog:   http://www.frugalwoods.com/

I can't WAIT to make homemade bread, but we currently have some from a bakery up in Bishop that we need to finish off.  I'm looking at applesauce bread recipes right now!

Until next time,
Cheryl Ann
