How I did it
It made me 
How I did it: I'm sorry to have left the other place, but this one really is better in myriad ways.No black mold,much better insulation, quieter, quieter, quieter. We re sleeping better and have far fewer headaches. Read how I did it…
It made me
Happy
How I did it: Bought groceries and gas ahead of time, picked a week when all bills were already paid, and cooked at home. It was simpler for me than for my husband, but a good lesson in money consciousness for both of us. It especially brought home to him how habitual some of his spending habits are. Read how I did it…

I got a new cat tree, replacing the old one that had to go to the curb a couple of months ago. That one was too tall and swayed alarmingly every time my elderly beasts ran up. This new one is only about 4 feet tall and the base is much wider. They are in heaven.
Also replaced the hallway runner which was also a casualty of cat pee from when my girlcat had that terrible months long UTI and didn’t quite make it one to the box one day. Also during that same IKEA trip, I bought another set of closet organizers, complete with drawers-so much prettier and neater than the current one which is ripped and sagging. It regularly spills my socks out on the floor. I will hang it and transfer stuff over when I get a free moment this month.
Next on the list, some decent winter sweaters. Almost every cardigan I own has either shrunk or sprouted holes, all within an 8 week period. This leaves me with a single winter weight one left-not good. A midweight fall coat is needed, too. The one I had was too threadbare to stretch another year.
