The Frugal Girl

I just looked at the calendar and realized how close Christmas is. College semesters always make Christmas seem like it pops up fast because I don’t have much time to think about it until after finals and then it IS really close. Well, I’d saved one that was perfect for shipping the viral Snoopy I sold on eBay!

I was a bit intimidated by this, but then I figured I probably wasn’t the only person out there who isn’t ultra-frugal at the moment. I have had times when it was necessary to stretch every cent, but thankfully we have more wiggle room these days. Before kids, I spent my free-time volunteering at a stray rescue shelter for dogs.

We’re meeting an Arkansas reader today and initially, I thought she was the first one! But then I realized that we’d met Jane before, and she hails from the Hot Springs area of Arkansas. I had huge medical bills for the spouse, was only working PRN, and needed new ideas on cutting corners. Heavens, no.

This week, I am thankful: that I got to dust off my piano It was literally covered in dust after a quiet semester of me not playing it! But I vacuumed off the keys and pulled out some Christmas music books yesterday and I’m happy to report that my piano fingers still work. What are you thankful for this week?
