For right about 5 months. We had a misunderstanding and didn't see each other for four days. Did do some texting though. Anyway....things have been back on for two weeks and I'm at a party Wednesday nite and a friend says "are you still seeing ???". I say "yes, I saw him last nite". She says " I saw him two weeks ago with someone else and they were hot and heavy so I didn't know if he was still seeing you.

Can someone ask Frenchy, Livlovlife and friends what should I do??????????

See first reply.

Has anyone already started making Christmas preparations? I am having a houseful of company this year so I have been quite busy re-decorating, buying presents earlier than I normally do and just trying to make sure that I won'tbe running around ling a chicken looking for its head but able to enjoy my company stress-free.

Justcrusin mentioned in her response in the Next Chapter post about how she was checking off things she has on her bucket list. I had been thinking about starting such a post about that topic, so her response nudged me onward.

So, how about it? What are things you have (or would put) on a bucket list? What is it that you'd like to do while healthy & able?

Here's the ultimate in "frugal" view link

FTA: " ... gave up consumer culture altogether, and for the last 9 years, he's survived by living in a cave in Utah, and dumpster diving, foraging, fishing, and occasionally hunting for food. He spends his time in the great outdoors--and in the public library, where he blogs about it all."

No money at all?!? How many Americans are struggling with the same situation, involuntarily?

Of course, if we ALL tried this, it wouldn't work. But it does show us how little we need to not just survive, but to live "comfortably".

I'm not anywhere near as independent as he is. But ... I've never bought a brand new car, never bought new furniture. I'm aware and careful about how much I spend on food, I turn off every light when I'm not in a room, I have enough clothes to last me the rest of my life, I always combine trips (to the bank, to the grocery store, to Target, etc). I've always been frugal, and watched the "consumer" lifestyle and cuture with skepticism and doubt ... and how right I was. How can "stuff" make you happy?

Yes, I have my indulgences ... but the only thing I spend "big bucks" on are travel (Washington/Oregon coast, San Francisco, etc) and my horses, both of which give me great pleasure and joy.
