How I did it
It made me 
How I did it: I went on facebook. I reconnected with a lot of friends. I already have made plans with an old school friend. Some things were disappointing, but for the most part it has been fun. Read how I did it…
It made me
happy
How I did it: I had been researching them and trying to figure out a way to afford them. So I was thinking that I would get my daughter's summer camp paid for, then revisit the situation and see if I could do it without blowing my savings. Then my friend offered to sell me her old one for $100! Read how I did it…
It made me
secure
How I did it: I took $1000 dollars from my tax refuns and set it aside for emergencies. It's nice and safe in the bank but I will only touch it if there is an emergency. Read how I did it…
