Well not only is my old car not selling NEVer has this happened to me either but my dryer is now almost completely dead so tommorrow its out to look for a new one!!!

I doubt my husband will come so I am on my own but thats ok I think I got the washer alone too so no biggie I guess probably better I can get the cheaper brand he would probably go with the more expensive which I see no point in.


And today I got notice that my ex owed $2700 in back taxes & they are taking back that in childsupport from me that was paid over 2 months ago to my daughter so I Have to pay it BACK!!! THe most screwed thing I have ever heard of but they did say they can take it out of future childsupport payments so I said go ahead well guess what that is 3yrs of childsupport so she is the only one whos being hurt by this but I wont let her suffer I will take care of her wether her dad does or not. SO that is that thiers no fighting this & dh says hire a lawyer & get the whole thing in order not that it will help the money will still have to be paid back so attorney wants $400 up front but it may put my ex in check he rarely pays & dont have to pay much at all.

It seems like this never ends its always something I am tired of it all the time its like how can you be frugal when you always have something expensive but this is getting to be more WAY MORe than I can handle!!! I want to cry but I am sure this too will pass but I really wish I could start adding to my savings again & its so hard with all this all the time.

Well thank goodness for halloween tommorrow I love halloween & yes I am frugal on that day I take my kids out trick or treating & no one is here to hand out candy so no expense thier guess I am saving thier. I am so excited my youngest is 2 1/2 so I know she will be fun this year!!!

Well today was city wide garage sale days I had one made around $45 off stuff I got free mainly I had a stockpile sale my mom made $75 so it wasnt a complete waste. I spent about $20 getting my kids some awesome clothes & books.

I got big hard books for .25 & cute kohls & sears outfits all $2 or less I was so thrilled my 5 yr old seen the books & screamed she was so happy she loves books & these were all $20-$25 new books & they were in new condition too

I put half the books away for xmas so I got 6 of those books & about 10 outfits for $20 I am happy I cant believe all these people who were saling such nice expensive stuff so cheap.

I really hope my husband appreciates the fact that I buy garage sale stuff & am not out spending all his money like some of these people appeared they had done.

I mean one women had tables & tables of very expensive clothing items all kids clothes. I thought wonder how much in debt she went over that ya know I hope I never do stuff like that. I will stick to garage sales this was the first one I went to in a long time their is one more huge one next weekend & then I am done tell next spring and the kids should be set for the winter I cant believe the comments too I get on the garage sale clothes people always say oh how cute & so on oh ya I also sold some stuff I bought at garage sales last year & made back what I paid!!!
