I am sick and tried of people taking what people say or post and ripping it apart. You are allowed to call it anything you wish, Keep it "Self Imposed Poverty", dang its your blog and you can .... grrrrr..... I am all for being sensitive to many situations, subjects, and people and not offending anyone but good grief, its not like you...... Oh... enough said.<br /><br />You will love Vermont, We were in Stowe several years back to see some snow. It was the first week in December and I wanted to have a horse drawn sleigh ride but no snow. The town folks said it was unusual not to have snow. It finally snowed the night before we were to leave that following morning. But, we enjoyed the week we were there. I was not prepared for the sun to start setting at 4:00 PM and be dark by 5:00 PM... That threw me out of sorts.<br /><br />Love your blog, I am reading page by page.

I can't seem to do anything about our finances right now, but I am following your lead and not letting the internet rob as much of my time. Try to limit it, especially on the weekends.

It's funny actually, referring to me as PC! I'm about the most un-politically correct person you could find! No filters on this girls mouth I'll tell ya. I just happen to feel there are SO many people in this country that have no choice and you and I do, (poor people do have access to the internet folks!)and there are such cute names to call it! You've come up with good ones! I've written in the past how you helped me through a difficult time when I lost my mom, even using part of what you said in her eulogy.

This morning you popped into my mind and I thought to myself "she could get a part time job and get the debt paid off faster"...I even had a momentary wish that I was you. It was just a moment because I really love my life but I would REALLY love to be mortgage free. That is my goal. So I was very happy to see your early post when I got home and found out that you were contemplating job to make this all happen faster. I have been away from blog world for 8 months and you are the most reliable blog to make me think, make me feel that I am not alone and ALWAYS make me laugh. The moral of the story?
