It was back in 1989 and I was a college sophomore. There weren't a lot of people walking around, mostly hippies and college students. When I was a college sophomore, I didn't even know how to cook scrambled eggs, let alone grow my own food. I remember my first Earth Day celebration. Earth Day has come a long way.

Not long after college, a friend of mine gave me a list of recommended books. Tackle the enormity of saving up for a down payment on a home or for retirement or anything else by deciding how much you can afford to set aside on a monthly or weekly basis.

I loved being home with my birth family as a kid, going to elementary and high school, finding new found freedom at college in my teens and early twenties, striking out on my own in my twenties, having and raising my babies in my twenties and thirties. I lost my stay at home baby weight and emerged a slim confident young career woman.
