I’ve never had to dread seeing the address labels and opening large bills. Lucky me! What would have been even luckier than that was if I had never been [...]

You Can’t Put A Price On The Homemaker’s Job
My biggest gripe in life is the attitude too many people have that homemaking is not a job. Workers in industry pay for disability insurance and can collect on it when they are hurt on the job.

Insurance – It May Not Be Cheap But It’s Needed
I’ve taken care of the family finances for years. I do the budget, shopping, and pay the bills. One of the biggest items in our regular living expenses is insurance.
