The Year Without: July 2009
http://theyearwithout.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
The ultimate frugal lifestyle challenge. No "new" things. No frivolous spending. One year of less, to create a lifetime of more. Thursday, July 30. Check out the ticker! 54% of our debt is gone! What a HUGE relief! I am so excited. It seems like it has been forever, but at the same time, it's. Next month we will finish paying off college loan #1. That will leave us with just our last and final debt. We started out with 4 loans to repay and we're almost down to 1. Awesome! Monday, July 27. Not much. W...

http://theyearwithout.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
The ultimate frugal lifestyle challenge. No "new" things. No frivolous spending. One year of less, to create a lifetime of more. Wednesday, October 28. Okay, a woohoo. Here should = NOT spending money. but. Anyway. if we go in January, we can all 3 fly for under $600 (WITH taxes and fees), verses probably a little over $1000 if we go in March. Um, HELLO? That's a big savings. So, we're going in January I think. We've got to get the kinks worked out tomorrow, since it's the last day to buy. Gifts And, if ...

Living the Frugal Life: falling off the wagon a bit
http://theyearwithout2.blogspot.com/2009/01/falling-off-wagon-bit.html
Living the Frugal Life. The ultimate challenge. Buy nothing NEW for one year. Living with less now so that we can have more later. Sunday, January 11, 2009. Falling off the wagon a bit. I would starve to death! So I grabbed some cash from the change jar and picked up McDonald's. Plus side was that it didn't come out of the budget money. Well all they had for shoes were holiday shoes; black patent leather, and shimmer red. :( But they did have a long sleeved onesie that says "Daddy Rocks! January 12, 2009...

Living the Frugal Life: We fell off, er I did.
http://theyearwithout2.blogspot.com/2009/02/we-fell-off-er-i-did.html
Living the Frugal Life. The ultimate challenge. Buy nothing NEW for one year. Living with less now so that we can have more later. Friday, February 13, 2009. We fell off, er I did. We have fallen off this wagon big time! So my plan is to put the pay off amount in our savings account so that is out of our direct grasp and then if we need to use it for something we have it but we will try to get by without it and then when we have something coming in we will pay off the Target card. Did that make sense?

http://theyearwithout.blogspot.com/2009/10/two-freebies-in-one-week.html
The ultimate frugal lifestyle challenge. No "new" things. No frivolous spending. One year of less, to create a lifetime of more. Friday, October 23. TWO freebies in one week! Freebie # 1 was a Poken. From The Green Wife. Hopefully they'll catch on 'cause they are a genius idea! Freebie # 2 was walkie. Talkies from work. Score! They were literally going in the trash, since we got new ones that are supposed to be less finicky. So, I took some home to give us a means of communication between upstairs. With ...

The ultimate frugal lifestyle challenge. No "new" things. No frivolous spending. One year of less, to create a lifetime of more. Monday, November 30. I'll throw in a few other things that are priced right. We've got the 2 gifts for our family exchange also. That's it. I see no reason that I can't stick to my budget goal. The less I spend the better really 'cause I've also got to find Kasen. Sunday, November 1. 31st, it will keep going until we're out of debt. Let's all hope that's sooner rather than ...

The ultimate frugal lifestyle challenge. No "new" things. No frivolous spending. One year of less, to create a lifetime of more. Monday, October 19. Time slips by faster than I realize! We're doing great, staying on track! I really wanted to borrow a costume for Kasen. We did go out to eat (Pei Wei - yum! On Saturday night, but it was within our rules, so nothing was broken there either. :) Right now I'm really wanting a 2 nd. I do want to find Kasen. A (USED) bicycle for Christmas, I think that'd.
