GRACEful Retirement: Playing Catch-Up
http://gracefulretirement.blogspot.com/2013/03/playing-catch-up.html
Getting a late start on retirement saving and debt reduction in middle age with a middle class income. Monday, March 11, 2013. I have been neglecting my blog lately. In fact, I've been neglecting everyone's blogs, so now I'm playing catch up on the lives of everyone else I follow. I'll try to do better. But I'm now seeing why we have children in our pre-age fifty years- cuz parenting at 63 is downright exhausting! Bear with me, and I'll work on limiting the whines. Parenting at 63 is downright exhausting...

http://gracefulretirement.blogspot.com/2012/07/two-summer-months-down-one-to-go.html
Getting a late start on retirement saving and debt reduction in middle age with a middle class income. Tuesday, July 31, 2012. Two Summer Months Down, One to go. OK, Grace is on a roll, here! In June, I put a net amount of $704.39 against my debt (net because the previous month I'd actually increased my indebtedness). July has been even better. My debts are down another $1489.96. I now owe a grand total of $84,930.50 which is a lot, but it's coming down. Enjoy your time with your grandkids. August 1, 201...

http://gracefulretirement.blogspot.com/2012/10/pizza-beer-queen-of-versailles.html
Getting a late start on retirement saving and debt reduction in middle age with a middle class income. Thursday, October 4, 2012. Pizza, Beer and The Queen of Versailles. But somewhere along the way, movies theaters continued to change, and this time in a really good way- with couches, alcohol,big screens and adults-only showings. What's not to like about sharing a couch, a pizza and a pitcher of beer with friends while watching a (albeit, second-run) movie? Ya gotta see this movie! Let's face it. Di...

GRACEful Retirement: A-Spamming-We-Will-Go
http://gracefulretirement.blogspot.com/2012/10/a-spamming-we-will-go.html
Getting a late start on retirement saving and debt reduction in middle age with a middle class income. Thursday, October 18, 2012. Ah, the cushy life of a blogger, even a non-monetized blogger like Grace. We write our gems and put them out into the blogosphere where we wait to see what comments we get back from our reading public. So why is it that far too many of those comments are in languages most of us don't speak or in gibberish that no one understands? Even more amazing to me was the discovery that...

GRACEful Retirement: Starting Over
http://gracefulretirement.blogspot.com/2013/01/starting-over.html
Getting a late start on retirement saving and debt reduction in middle age with a middle class income. Thursday, January 3, 2013. A new year is always a time of starting over. For myself, never more so than 2013. Not only am I starting over as a parent (of a boy, yet! The whole point of adoption was to insure that I had only girls). But I feel like I'm starting over financially as well. I have no one to blame but myself. Is on to something when he tells us to cut the darn things up! Nice to see you back ...

GRACEful Retirement: Geezer Tech
http://gracefulretirement.blogspot.com/2012/07/geezer-tech.html
Getting a late start on retirement saving and debt reduction in middle age with a middle class income. Sunday, July 29, 2012. I read an interesting article. On US News' "Planning To Retire" blog regarding how seniors use technology. The most entertaining finding (and one that is certainly true for me) is that seniors are less likely to use the internet (53% of us compared to 82% of younger adults). But once we get with the program, 70% of us are on the internet on any given day. Hi Grace. I had to la...
