I was officially diagnosed as have fibro by a Rhuemetologist yesterday, but I'm not new to chronic pain or fatigue. I've been in pain every day, at least to some extent, since a car accident four years ago. My pain almost completely went away (stayed at a 1-3 every day) while pregnant then...

I am pissed because the days fly by with no fun! I don't know how many days I have left to have fun! It doesn't bother my husband to sit here like aged old puds, watching tv, drinking the occasional beer! I am actually thinking of calling the college to see if they need ushers for their...

So, I started this blog for Fabulously Thrifty people like me. People who want to look good, but still think $50.00 is too much to spend on a dress. I grabbed 2 magazines today and went to 2 goodwills (in Phoenix area, every other Saturday is 50% off everything day). So I only went to 2...
