Hi all. <waves to Dawn!>
My most frugal event of the year was redoing our kitchen. By really
researching all our options and doing all the work ourselves..we
estimate the kitchen cost 1/4 to 1/3 what it would have cost to have it
done. We also paid for it all with a points credit card that we
immediately paid off.
On a bit of a morbid note..one of my dogs passed away. He was fourteen,
a difficult dog with 'issues' his whole life. While I loved him dearly
and miss him terribly, his passing is saving us about $1000 per year.
With that extra money, I have been investing in stocks. I enjoy
learning about that and have done pretty well.
No garden here, Dawn..besides a few banana plants that are doing well.
I had grand plans for playing with hydroponics in 07. Maybe I'll get to
it in 08!
