When my husband went back to work after being laid off, I was much happier to see that we were both content with the lifestyle we had developed with only one income. It has turned out to be such a blessing - I hope the same is true for you!Dusahttp://www.brightobjects.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-206656751977935322013-09-02T20:50:04.967-04:002013-09-02T20:50:04.967-04:00Yay!

God knows not to tempt me with really being well off :) I would be terrible. <br />On the other hand, there are things you have to do when you have to do them, and other things that you can just stop doing because your time becomes more important. That's fine! <br />Relax, enjoy!

I am so happy for all of you.<br /><br />I think the ability to prioritize, be industrious, avoid waste, and set aside for "what if", are all good skills that will stand you in good stead even when times are better. And like Sew Blessed Maw said, splurges now and then are good too!<br /><br />I'm so relieved you intend to keep blogging - I'd miss your wonderful posts. jenny_ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475480579733466963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-32176229053823193262013-08-26T22:27:40.557-04:002013-08-26T22:27:40.557-04:00Congratulations!

It has been a tough few years for many architects all over the world. Here in London many architects have been been made redundant in recent years. I have heard stories of many of my partner's friends and colleagues finding themselves without work. My own partner has started his own practice in the last few years and my own frugality measures in recent years have been borne out of this situation. Thankfully this has worked out well for him but has not been without it's stresses. I hope all goes well in your husband's new job.johnnyjumpsuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08474137444822527332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-37350263033939630092013-08-26T16:07:33.945-04:002013-08-26T16:07:33.945-04:00Oh Margo, I'm so happy for you.

I am so sorry that you all had to endure this hardship, but I honestly think that sometimes, we go through these things to teach us and others. God is so awesome!!!<br />As for your thriftiness, I think you will continue, but it will be nice to know that you can splurge more often, and that is ok too. I am so happy for you all.. Look forward to hearing the things you do in the future.. <br />Have fun and enjoy the peace that will come with a full time job..Sew Blessed Maw [Judy]https://www.blogger.com/profile/15474519379303505290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-78839475658810191492013-08-26T09:39:21.135-04:002013-08-26T09:39:21.135-04:00Thank you, all, for your kind words and congratula...Thank you, all, for your kind words and congratulations.
