Can't believe that I haven't blogged since October. Anyway, I'm back and hope to get back to being frugal as well!
Christmas took a big bite out of my finances, because we have a big family to buy for. I did learn that the most appreciated gifts were homemade, and "from the heart".
I wanted to save five thousand dollars, and not create any more credit card debt, and I did reach that goal. I used the credit card for Christmas gifts, but I paid off the bill I just received, and should be able to pay off the couple hundred that will show up on the January bill.
I am glad Christmas is behind us, and looking forward to getting back on track and increasing savings, and decreasing spending!
Happy New Year from snowy Colorado!
Back after a long break
