It happen, a little here and some there. Increases in things needed ,illness, family additions and even less salary but still God saw you through it as you have testified. He told us He would help us in big and little things and He surely does!! I let myself worry over retirement. Would we have enough actually? We do. My husband's work never gave him any cost of living raises. So after three years on Social Security we got our first one it was unexpected! By then too we knew we could live without it so the extra was just that..extra. :)<br />I truly do not know how you remember what happened each day to tell us here but I enjoy it all. The lessons learned by you have helped me too.<br />By the way that price of $1 a pound for the chicken breasts was fantastic! I cut up chickens too but never have gotten to a point that I feel completely confident in it. I look at the pictures of how to do it and somehow mine does not cut up looking so pretty! But it sure does taste good when cooked and on the table!! <br />With our health insurance we cannot switch pharmacies and such but still I have gotten many hints and ideas on how to save in so many other ways on our health costs as well as many other areas from your many posts. <br />I started a notebook a long time back to post the hints and recipes I find on yours and a few other women's blogs. Many blogs you can't find the information on when you want to find it again as there is no word index or archive feature so this sure helps to be able to check back on things I want to refer to! I remember Laine from Laine's Letters used to keep a notebook for all the herbal medicines and recipes and such she wanted to compile for their use from radio shows or other places. It sounded like a homemaker's notebook i wanted to keep too so I did.

I hope your renewed health continues and that your husband is able to get as many hours as you both would like him to have at work.Leighhttp://achatovercoffee.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6959918163454225829.post-21952498257455982262015-09-30T16:31:18.246-04:002015-09-30T16:31:18.246-04:00What a testimony of God's provision for those ...What a testimony of God's provision for those medical bills!Lanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09380649410508372279noreply@blogger.com
