  1. Love that you have more highs than lows! Great that the ER visit revealed all is OK xxx Do you read The Simple Dollar? Great tips on budgeting/frugality etc....he (Trent) explains it all so well, so thoroughly, his tips are so inspiring and 'work-able' - I recommend it for your budgeting/controlling spending....(you'll get lost reading archived posts!)
