The Frugal Girl
SEPTEMBER 18, 2023
A reader wrote me an email telling me about some family troubles, including the story of her son leaving an abusive marriage, with his little daughter in tow. He just used it for youtube, Google, Facebook Messenger Kids and taking pictures. Apparently kids are learning certain things way earlier than when we were kids!!

If you are a parent, some day you will most likely become a grandparent. Being a grandparent is tons more fun than parenting. You get to enjoy all the cute moments and hand back the kid when they stink or act out! I only remember staying with them once without parents around. However, being a grandparent can be expensive.

Sea Life Arizona Summer Family Fun. Last week we had family visiting from New York. She and her parents last visited AZ in 2002, so it had been 12 years since we last saw each other.

I took an unexpected blog break last week because of the death of my grandfather. He was a wonderful man whose passions were his faith, his family, and his farm.

Here is what some have said about their parents/caregivers: I have been inspired by my parents.

Most folks would say: good health, loving family and friends. While we have had our share of violence in the country during our lifetimes, there has been no all out war, such as our great-grandfathers suffered during the Civil War or our founding fathers and mothers endured during the Revolution. But what does make a person rich?

Last week I told you that my hubby and I were headed to BC to visit my grandfather whom I hadn’t seen in 8 years. My hubby and I often borrow yard equipment that we use once in a while from my parents. Family Matters. I don’t have kids yet but I am keeping things in mind for when I do have them. Going Frugal.
