@savvyhistory I’ve not had dental insurance for 5 years. I calculated that the only thing it really covered was cleaning and xrays and the premiums ended up costing what the cash cost was. I go every 18 months instead of twice a year.
After 5 years of tracking every penny spent, I’ve decided to no longer do this. At this point we spend what we spend. I will continue to track monthly net worth which I think is a better measurement anyway. Anyone else not tracking every expense?
Already have our travel for 2020 booked. Road trip around southwest USA and Europe trip to Amsterdam, Mont Blanc, and Paris. Lots of research and planning to do!
@JohnBondTravels I didn’t know you had moved there! What area are you in? I still think about Ecuador all the time & how it was such a wonderful place to be.
Since 2015 I've had my hair cut twice and it was $20 each time. Haven't had my hair cut since Sept. 2017 and couldn't take it anymore so watched a YouTube video and did it myself. 5 minutes & free.
We are finally down to only having 1 more vacancy to fill. I'll be happy if we can get it rented by November - then we'll at least have a couple months before the next lease runs up and the process starts again.
Finally getting around to writing about our trip to Ecuador. Check out Part 1 of a likely 6 part series.

@TheFrugalOnion I watched a makeup tutorial once but it was just so overwhelming and way too much work. I just have no desire to buy all the supplies and keep up with it all. Plus I feel my face would breakout with so much stuff on it.
Any other women who are clueless about makeup? I have a very basic eyeliner and mascara routine but when it comes to primer, base, bronzer, blush, concealer, highlighter, blending - I’m lost.
@TheFrugalOnion Seems to be a recurring theme. My mom has never worn makeup either. I got mine professionally done for my wedding and was shocked at the transformation it made.
@StIroningShirts I’m thinking of increasing my stock market investing activity so I thought they might be helpful in keeping on top of the economy, etc.
