New Articles:

Hip Mom Rule #16: Challenge Yourself to Realize a Dream  by Heidi A. Burns  
I got roped into it innocently enough. I was out for lunch with a couple of my
girlfriends when the conversation shifted to a triathlon they were training for.
It was several months off, but they were already in the middle of a serious training
schedule.  “That sounds like a lot of fun!” I enthusiastically said. “Was I interested
in doing it, too?” my hip friends asked.  I was interested in doing it. It had always
been a dream of mine to complete a triathlon, someday. I just didn’t actually think I
would do it.

The Debt Elimination Dilemma by Terry Rigg
The total American consumer debt reached $2.4 trillion in 2006.
There are literally hundreds of ways to eliminate your debt.
You can't turn on the TV, listen to the radio, open a newspaper
or click on a web page link without hearing or seeing the latest
miracle method to get you out of debt.

Money Talk:

One Addiction for Another
Now know what my problem is! I can't believe I didn't realize it sooner!
I had gastric bypass surgery in November 2005. well what I have slowly done
is traded my addiction to eating to shopping!

Keeping Up with the Joneses' Kids
We've discussed keeping up with the Joneses, but do you feel like your kids
have to keep up with the Joneses' kids? Parents want to send their kids to the
best schools, expose them to the widest variety of opporunities, etc. Often the
competition starts before they even enter preschool. In school things seem to intensify.
Does anyone see this going on around them? In what ways?

Saving Money Got Me in Trouble!
As some of you may know I am a working mom who is working on being a SAHM. Well, starting the
middle of January we really started saving and February and March we have been living off my
DH's salary and putting all of mine into savings and paying for expenses we won't have when I'm home.
Now DH is mad at me  because he sees how much we could have actually saved for the past 6 years if
we would have done this when we were first married. I am a recovering spender and now he actually
sees how much I was spending. I'm embarrassed that I did blow a lot of money but I'm proud of myself
now and how we are saving. He jokes about it but I know he is mad.
How can I get him to let go of the past and be happy that I've changed?

What's Cooking:  Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies

1 cup peanut butter
1 cup white sugar
1 egg

Preheat oven to 350. Mix ingredients and drop by teaspoonfuls on cookie sheet.
Bake for 8 minutes. Let cool. Recipe doesn't make very many, so you could double
recipe or just make 1 batch as an after school snack. -- Member mommy2mercedes
