The Year Without: Christmas is over.

Saturday, December 26

Christmas is over.

It was a wonderful Christmas, without giving into the temptation of buying ever toy made for a 2 year old. ;) I don't think Kasen minded that he didn't wake up to toy overload. He appreciated the few things that he got, and that's good enough for me! I do wish I could've spent more, just to get a few nicer things for the other people on my list, but, I'm happy with not going broke for one day.

Now, we're trying to find a few things we need for our trip to Utah. I'm still having a hard time with the idea of spending money on it all, but I know it will be so much fun. Seeing how much Kasen enjoyed the little bit of snow we got in Texas this week gave me a glimpse at how much he'll love all the snow he's going to see there!

Anonymous said...: I liked your article on trying to get out of debt. I have no credit card debt, owe nothing on my car, and never buy anything for myself. Unfortunately, I was put in this position by my husband leaving me with two kids while my only income is my disability cheque. Coming from an upper-middle class lifestyle to living at or below the poverty level is quite a shock. However, it does prove that if can be done, no matter how hard it is to stretch a dollar.; February 21, 2013 at 10:13 PM

Who Am I? What Is This?

Hi, I'm Helen. I'm the crazy lady who thought this would be a great challenge. A whole year without wasting money or resources (ie buying used instead of new).
The hubby (Luke) jumped right on board. Then, I asked some other great mamas to join me. So, here we are... Some crazy families making a HUGE commitment for one year - 2009.
The goal for our family is to be out of debt, other than our mortgage. We currently owe a little on Luke's car & a lot on my college loans. By sticking to this commitment we'll be able to pay off that debt! The sacrifices of the next year will (hopefully) lead to many more years of joy and, ultimately, financial freedom.
