Why am I here?

Thirty-Four years ago my mother and father created this fine specimen of a woman! LOL! Totally vain,  right? I typically make everything about me; good, bad or indifferent-but that's me. So, why are you here? Why am I here? Well, speaking with a friend of mine at work-she said, "You should start a blog." I'm like, WHAT, a blog, who the HELL is going to listen to me, let alone read what I have to say? Well, here I am!! This all stemmed from being tired of being sick and tired of BROKE! As a result, I've had to find ways to supplement my expensive taste and the reality of whats in my purse.

I have an daughter, a husband, bills and vacations-all in that order!! I will share with you best practices on parenting, shopping and vacationing all on a budget. This is a work in progress because I have NO IDEA how to budget, save or anything relative to the topic-so this will be a journey as well. I will also throw in some rants and comedic relief; the stuff that keeps me going! 

This is going to be totally raw and an open forum to share as well!!

I hope you ENJOY! 

Thanks YO-YO For the inspiration!
