Congrats, Alice! Unfortunately, I've spent all my
vaping budget already - drat! Oh well, I have really good luck using Bruce's Notify Me! button. Enjoy!!
I really need to be on a budget. Serious Budget. Wouldn't know where to start, though. Our serious lack of money management is why DH is still working, full time, at 75 but he would go crazy as he has few hobbies and his arthritis really restricts his Flamenco Playing now days. His best buddy from medical school is still working too and I don't think he needs the money as badly as we do. They'll both work until they drop dead, hopefully, maybe on the job and suddenly. DH won't do well confined to a wheel chair or bed although he spends every, non working, hour in his recliner on the computer. So maybe he would adjust.
I have a few mods I really should sell but I love to look at them and hold them and use them. The GGTS is just going to have to share me with the Reos. Right here, by my Notebook, I have two Grands, one Woody, a Mini, and a Phidias going; all the same juice. Different experience on each mod.
I have enough clothes to last me till I'm 100 and shoes too (Crocks, Clarks, Tevas, Chacos and one pair of Naturalizer dressy heels). So I only have to pick up a few things from Walmart a couple of times a year, so no clothes need to be in the budget. Our biggest fun expense is the $400 a month DH spends on healthy nutritious doggie treats; much more than we spend on their great food in fact. And the couple of hundred we spend on feeding the birds and wildlife. The coons get salmon occassionally. If and when things get bad enough I'll start making the chickie jerk myself and if it gets bad enough I'll make the biskie bones too but it is hard to beat the price of the Costco biskie bone.
At least we're not spending $1800 a month on analogs any more. I keep using that as an excuse to buy
vaping stuff.
Alice
