coming home to a huge pile of clean, folded laundry! DH knows how rough these past few days have been and it was so nice to see that mountain of laundry done. And love is coming home to two wriggling little bodies who are enjoying the sunshine and saying "Hi Mama! Watch me!". It's good to remember the things that make you smile.
Just to check in moneywise, aside from all else that is going on personally - things are going well right now. A lot of little things trickling in (waiting on that Pepsi rebate still - anyone else get it yet?) and not too much going out. I mailed out an $800 car payment last week, so now we'll only owe about $2000. It is really nice to not be sending out several hundred dollars per month to the credit card companies - not that we ever carried a balance, but we did charge a lot then pay it off every month. I actually think we are spending less since we agreed NOT to use the ccs for anything but true emergencies.
I would like to give some money to my friend's widow - not for anything specific, but to use for expenses or just for the kids. Anyone have any advice on how to do this tactfully? I was thinking of finding a close relative at the calling hours and ask them to pass it on to her. I would prefer it to remain anonymous, since she does not really know me. If anyone has been in this situation before, I would love to hear ideas. TIA.
Love is...
