Reintroducing myself after a few years away.
Hello everyone. I spent several years on this site talking about frugality. I went from being eligible (but not receiving) foodstamps to becoming debt free with the support of this group. After reaching that goal, I found myself a little aimless, wondering though life trying to figure out what the next chapter held. I also started spending a lot more money-mostly on necessities but definitely on indulgences too and didn't feel like I was being true to the board. I guess I kind of felt like I fell off the wagon in a way.
My husband and I own a restaurant and have decided that it is time to sell it and retire. I will turn 46 tomorrow and dh just turned 48. We've decided where we want to live next-in an apartment in a nearby college town. We've also decided we don't want to have to work for money again after our business sells.
So my goal is to use my frugal skills to save as much money as possible while down-sizing my possessions to the things I want to take when we move. This move could happen in few months or it could take years.
I look forward to getting to know everyone and sharing thought and ideas with you all.
