Yeah, not so much. We bought a new furnace and AC unit which will EVENTUALLY save money for us, but it put us $8000 more in debt. Read more about that here. Along with the new furnace and AC, we have had to have home energy audits completed which have cost us about $400. We have had to purchase many prescriptions as my health benefits have ended in October, as I am now self-employed with my home daycare. And now I have had to cancel my home daycare for a week due to this H1N1 business that w... Read Full Story

What a weekend we have had. It was not the Thanksgiving we were anticipating, nor the way we planned to celebrate our son's 18 month birthday. On Friday, my son came down with a fever. He has had a bad cough and cold for about a week, so I was thinking that he was just entering a new phase of his cold. I started dosing him with Motrin and Tylenol which was bringing down the fever. On Sunday, he became lethargic: was not speaking, was not able to stand or walk and was not eating. We were at ... Read Full Story

In August our central air died; you know, during the hottest week of the summer! Our furnace is also aging rapidly and is as old as our home (probably older-IF that is possible).

Moving from one city to another within the country is hassle enough, and when you and your family have to relocate to a place outside the country, the problem becomes ten times more aggravated. It‘s not a joke to pack your bags one fine day and transport your family to a different country as if you’re going for a weekend break. Nowadays, the world has become very small, so much so, the world is one big global village now. People are always on the move from one place to another either for rea... Read Full Story

I have been VERY absorbed in my own little world these past few months, so is the excuse for my lack of posting and deal searching! I have had an ill parent, a little boy going off to school for the first time and 2 more little guys that have started in my home daycare. I trust that I will be back to posting in a routine manner once everything gets its routine and the cold weather approaches. Thanks for checking in!
