I enjoyed this Jacqueline….my mum was frugal she had to be widowed with five children and worked as a cleaner….we never went without and she saved a penny or two in latter life….yet she was also very generous with money….too generous at times! Sounds like you enjoy frugality (think thats the right word ha) Debx

Thanks Deb. My mom had 7 children. She was a young mom with kids in ww2 and got bombed out of her home. They scraped a living all her life so we never had much, but she passed on precious money wisdom and tips. She always said never take money for granted. Deb,your own poems are a tribute to your mom, she would be proud. Have a great week. J
