Finding Treasure!
When you step onto the big stage of life at the tender age of 16, finding yourself married and with child, the meaning of both budget and value suddenly take on a whole new meaning. This was the case for me back in 1986. Even though I am a little more than 3 decades beyond that time in my life, my financial situation is much the same today as it was then. I often say that I pinch my pennies so hard, you can all but literally hear them squeal!

The Eye of the Beholder
Oh my, oh my! Tonight I sit here contemplating the power of words. I don't know about the rest of you, but I grew up with that little childhood claim that "sticks and stones may break your bones, but words can never hurt me." I am here to proclaim that the claim is WRONG! It is so wrong that it should be classified as an outright lie! Words can often leave bruises that take decades to heal; some so hurtful I think the essence of the initial punch often leaves a single bruise that can be felt to the present day.
