We had my daughter's Surprise Sweet 16 party last night. It was wonderful. I can't believe I lied to her for months and she really was surprised.

Dancing, eating, celebrating....she had a great time. I hope all her friends did too.

I'm sad it's over but I'm tired so I'm also glad it's over!!

I don't think I can transfer all the info from my savings journal to here. So I will start a fresh.

I have been holding to my new year's resolution on not getting the things I do not need even if they are free. For those of you who do not know, I made a resolution to not purchase anything that I had stockpiled a year's worth of stuff (atleast!!) on. The list was long but included things like deoderant, shampoo, razors, shave gel, cleaning supplies, etc. Things that did not expire...
