Now that our boat doesn't have a dinghy, we pull anchor to go over to the Heriot Bay Inn to splurge on either a breakfast or dinner on the deck. In summer the anchorage can get pretty crowded, but if we go before July 4 or in late August through September, it is almost empty. We love it best then. - MargyPowell River Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17580698518291129041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302691153455448442.post-14612444971952295392015-02-19T10:36:02.296-08:002015-02-19T10:36:02.296-08:00Exactly - if more people understood that they woul...Exactly - if more people understood that they would quit whining about not having the newest latest greatest - that while they suck on their Starbucks coffee.Cheapchickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158208632054014311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302691153455448442.post-63533717279676997802015-02-19T10:35:11.998-08:002015-02-19T10:35:11.998-08:00We kept our eye on the prize - and finally things ...We kept our eye on the prize - and finally things are happening!Cheapchickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158208632054014311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302691153455448442.post-66241966945170890632015-02-19T10:34:47.741-08:002015-02-19T10:34:47.741-08:00Relaxing is definitely a big thing - I hope you ge...Relaxing is definitely a big thing - I hope you get to do more of that and some financial relief soon.Cheapchickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158208632054014311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302691153455448442.post-25122073997500580702015-02-19T10:33:51.769-08:002015-02-19T10:33:51.769-08:00It is - I hate to tell you this Jane but on Vancou...It is - I hate to tell you this Jane but on Vancouver Island the irises are blooming - and it was plus 13 degrees celcius yesterday!

And I don't imagine you're going to totally give up your thrifty ways - it's just nice to be able to loosen up the wallet somewhat and enjoy the things you've been saving for!!

Our only bill is the house payment which even though we pay every other week and make a few extra payments a year, it seems like it will take forever to pay off. And even if we do pay it off, I doubt that we will be able to afford to live in the Chicagoland area during retirement.

I learned too late to live frugally, so I'm playing catch up. My goal is to get our bills so low that I don't have to work so much to pay them. I don't have the urge to travel. I just want to relax more, but that's a long way off right now. Unexpected expenses keep popping up.Lorrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15328674280714013955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302691153455448442.post-77268380312398682602015-02-17T19:28:00.107-08:002015-02-17T19:28:00.107-08:00Your plans are wonderful and are coming true.
