Our housewarming party on Saturday was tons of fun. Some really great friends and neighbors stopped by. And you know what, I totally forgot to take pictures! Ack!!!
Right now, we’re waiting for my parents to arrive for the week. My brother and his family will be here on Wednesday. I’m soooooo excited!!! (This is the 4th Thanksgiving in 15 years that I’ll spend with my brother, and the first Thanksgiving my husband will spend with my family. Yay!)
I’m not sure how much I’ll be here this week. I have some ideas for great posts, but I need to find the time to write them.
One of the topics that I’m planning on writing about soon is living on one income. I get a lot of Google hits for some posts I wrote awhile back on that topic. I want to expand on those ideas and also relate to those who are finding themselves on one income because of the current economy.
I know there is a very popular blog out there that talks about surviving on one income, and frequently praises the idea as being easy. It’s not. However, based on details that the writer scatters in various posts, I’m guessing their family income is $50K or more per year. To me and a lot of people, that would be luxury. My focus will be on those of us who have a limited income to the point that you’re not sure if you’ll survive the month.
So, as I have time to put the words on paper screen, I’ll start my series on surviving on a low income.

Yes, 50K would be a luxury! It would be easy to live on one income if it was that amount.
However, the Lord provides and we are surviving well on less – all 5 of us.
Still eager to be done with those expensive diapers!
I am so excited about all of your family coming! Isn’t family the BEST? I love your parents. I also LOVE your kitten. Oh my gosh! If she was any cuter, I would be on my way to visit you today too : ). Happy Thanksgiving Kara.
