Controlled/No Spend

[trimatty471]

I am so glad.
Two of my favorite boards are shutting down.
I will definitely recommend this.

[redwagon]

Welcome, Topaz!! You give me hope!! :-)

[Tehmom]

Good thing I checked in this month to say "Hello!"

[Tehmom]

What is this "guest" title that you speak of? Did I not answer a question right somewhere? teehee

[azmom]

I did it! I'm here. I will make a new start over here in January. SO happy since we will start the investment stage of our "plan" and I will need help and the support to stay strong!

[shanendoah]

[moneysquirrel]

teh mom -- Glad that you made it over here.
topaz -- Welcome

Today was a spend day.

[pointy]

I'm here! I just went with the inevitable - I'm now officially "pointy"

[foreverheloise]

Why is change so difficult? :'(I am here, but not settled. It does seem like this is the new site. Hope everyone is doing well - Happy Holidays!

[topaz]

Welcome! Please don't be scared. This board has some of the most genuinely nice ladies on the planet. I assure you...funny, wise, compassionate, empathetic, occasionally silly (speaking for myself, LOL), insightful, normal, etc. etc. Don't be shy.

[sharing1949]

pointy, LOL Yep, it was inevitable!

[singlemomky]

Pointy - I almost changed mine to Smokey but decided to stick w/the familiar and just sign "Smokey"

[mrslynch]

i'm here, too!

[angel007]

Can I join? Dh and I put a new budget together some months ago, and are saving alot more...and the more we save the less I want to spend! Amazing how that works!

Besides I have Bear-Like instincts and tend to hibernate in the BRRRR winter, making it pretty easy to accomplish no spend days!

[moneysquirrel]

Welcome June and other newbies. This is a great group of ladies and all are welcome. Ask questions and jump in with comments.

The boards are very slow with the holidays but should pick up some once MSN closes the message boards.

Have a great holiday!

[WholeLottaNothin]

I found the new board! I haven't been posting much but I have been trying to keep up with reading all the new posts. I will try to be more active in January.

[patchwork150]

*raising my hand* Here! (though rarely present lol)

maybe I can make myself STAY a whole month with it next month lol! : ) What will January be as far as a title?

[suzwantstobefree]

I haven't posted on your board before but I am intriged by your title. Hopefully I can learn some new tricks........

[MittenKitten]

Welcome to our new members. I am also glad to see so many of our former and current members ambling on over. It goes to show you that we are never far from each others minds.

While this is different we can still be together and support each other in our journeys and that is the important thing.

Really not sure if we will post a new thread or not with this new format, we will see how it goes.

I'm here! I have been following you all's tribulations and celebrations loosely this past month.
First of all. 3 cats -your bday gift was returned to me (imagine they wanted more than .39 postage for a package). Epic fail on my part. Consider mine your surpise after the first of the year. I embarassedly still have it in hand and will send back out Monday - I'm off this week & have promised myself to get things caught up & def the thought was there ... just not the proper planning! Please accept my apologies. Thank you so much for my the hot pads & towel for my birthday, they were absolutely beautiful -& the colors perfet - and best of all are super useful!
Honey - I hope all is well, you've been on my mind as you've been though some tribulations these past few months. Hugs. And more hugs.
My life is topsy turvey these days. There has been someone of the male persuaton that has infiltrated my life that scares me sh!tless), but let's just say he has potential. Lots of potential. Heaven help me, plese don't let my heart get broken, it's been a long, long time since I've left it this unprotected. oy vey.
I love you all and am keeping you in my thoughts as the holidays approach. This time of year can be such a mixed bag of emotions, may only the good ones be chasing each of you. More later ... hugs to all!

[beej67]

This is how out of date I am, was my stamp .39 or .44? It is just a "freedom" or something or other - but I know better than send a package with a letter stamp. egad.

[beej67]

omg, my spelling has hit the skids ... surprise, perfect, persuation ... and whatever I missed.

I need to figure out spell check!

[constanz22]

beej- So glad to see/hear from you!
This is cdarrow26-with a new screen name
To find spell check, you have to use the reply at the bottom right of the last posted message, instead of the quick reply box at the bottom left. You will also be able to change colors, use smiley's, etc. Hope to see you around more in the new year! Take care!

Merry Christmas to all! Stay safe!

Happy Holidays to everyone!

Hi all, my work project is FINALLY under control and I'm ready to play the No spend/controlled spend game again. I missed this thread. Good to see familiar names here.

[blackcard]

How about careful spend? Or something like Suzy Orman? Here it looks like we can put up polls for votes about spend and no spend? Correct me if I am wrong. I am new here too.

I do a lot of no spend. DH does a lot of no spend. Once in a while we do spend. Carefully.

[Malarky]

Just about every month for the past two years or so, I've told myself to join the Controlled/No Spend thread and actually keep track.
New digs, new opportunity, this time I intend to follow through.

What do you call a cat that routinely falls into the bathtub?

Asking for a bath, of course.

Sammycat keeps trying to show off her balance beam skills on the side of the tub...so far she's shown off her diving skills.
