Yes, I called myself starting this wonderful blog to document my savings, and spending habits, to help myself keep track of it, as well as giving others hope. Of course, I would eventually branch out and find myself some other women(and men) who blog about similar, as well as different areas of savings, and what happens? Real life jumps up and takes me for a detour. But, I'm back and ready to jump back on the blog bandwagon. Because of that i'll pretty much make a simple post. It's a posting of some of the abbreviations I may use from time to time and their meanings. I found this list on a message board, I'm not sure which one though, one of the many I visit on a daily basis, so I will just give credit to all of those you see over there under favorite sites.
