Thanks to all who energized our January 10th evening together with another reminder of learning to live within our means and to give to others our excess. After the holiday spending it is good to reign it in to better live the gospel principal of Provident Living and focus our energies on other priorities that we know bring us more joy.
Sue Allen gave us a basic chart of setting up a monthly and annual budget with a great Power Point presentation. Following Sue, Dawne Hollis briefed us on an introduction to estate planning and the important ways to take title to our accounts and other assets for tax purposes. That being the business part of the meeting, Alli Parry-Baer took us into the glitzey world of fashion finds through thrift store shopping. And it can be glitzey (as Alli showed us) but it can also be stylish, cute and practical. Some pictures of the "models" and their outfits are posted for your enjoyment.
Jeni Gaskin and Tina Dias arranged for the toy and clothing exchange and we were able to browse the abundant offerings and take home what we could put to use. We plan to do another exchange before school starts in the Fall so keep that in mind when thinking you need to clear out the closets and toychests.
