I have made a radical change in the way I handle our finances. A major lightbulb (of course, it was a CFL) went off this summer for me. In some repects, we have not done as much though because of this radical change. We have spent more time at home than any other summer. We have a camping trip planned at the end of the month to finish the summer off. Then, it is all about rountines, schedules, school, soccer and homework. Ahhh, all the more reason to enjoy these last couple weeks for what they are!!

It looks like you accomplished a lot! This summer, I did a No Spend Month in July, and this month I finally stopped procrastinating on things I've been wanting to prepare for.

I've been trying to enjoy the fact that it's so much easier to be frugal in the warmer (heh) weather, and dreading the autumn with the higher gas bills and less outdoor (read: free) things to do on weekends. Good on you for all the things you managed to achieve!
