After the salaries come in, and payments made, this will be the first month we can save a little. Hubby has been working like a dog to get us here. Whilst I am home from work nursing baby with chickenpox. No doubt DS4 will get it too.
I've been motivated by reading nickle and dimed and low wage britain. Can anyone recommend any other books along those lines? I have to say I love reading these blogs, does prevent me buying things for the sake of it.
Slightly better month

So when the job as assistant came open I applied even though it meant a 20 mile drive which includes going over a bad hill in the winter. This job has benefits, the employer matches my contributions to a retirement savings account, and MUCH better pay!
It really is amazing the effect one little book can have!

Five kids? I envy you.... i want one more, have four (2 grown and a four year old and a baby), but all things considered I don't think it'd be wise. (Health probs during last pregnancy).
