Wow, I really loved my blog on Blogger. I had plenty of good times figuring out how to make the site look just the way I wanted. But now that I’ve converted to WordPress, I’m here to tell all my fellow Blogspot bloggers that you must find a way to move to WordPress. If [CLICK TO CONTINUE...]

Update on Replacing My Glasses

By Mrs. Accountability on February 25th, 2009

Hi everyone! I am so far behind this week! Just a quick update. In an earlier post, I shared how I fell in a pothole at the mall, and how my worst injury was my glasses getting all scraped up. Well, happily, my claims check for $215 arrived in the mail yesterday. Now I [CLICK TO CONTINUE...]

My Goodness!

By Mrs. Accountability on February 22nd, 2009

Oh dear, oh my goodness… the lovely and talented Mrs. Micah helped me migrate my blog over to WordPress and to a new server on Saturday. Unfortunately, the nameservers took a long time switching over – I know it can take from 24 to 72 hours – and I checked throughout the day, and [CLICK TO CONTINUE...]

Do You Do Routine Maintenance on your Vehicle?

By Mrs. Accountability on February 18th, 2009

When I got my 6 year old Nissan Pathfinder in 2002, it was beautiful. It still cleans up nicely and no one can believe it’s 13 years old.

Anyway, it was the first vehicle I’d ever owned that I actually considering doing routine maintenance on. You know, the schedule that tells you when [CLICK TO CONTINUE...]

Is It Just MY Vacuum Cleaner?

One of these days I’m going to do some research on the best vacuum cleaners, then I’m going to write the names of them in my tiny purse phone book and when I’m at Savers or Goodwill on a sale day, I’m looking for a new vacuum cleaner.

Our vacuum cleaner is probably two [CLICK TO CONTINUE...]

Financial Update

By Mrs. Accountability on February 16th, 2009

When I started this blog in September 2007, our lives were quite a bit different than it is now. Mr. A was “working for the man” making a steady $15 an hour, forty hours a week. We had around $10,000 in debt, which had been accumulated within one year due to circumstances beyond our [CLICK TO CONTINUE...]

Valentine’s Day Soup

By Mrs. Accountability on February 14th, 2009

We stayed home and had a nice relaxing day. Well, it was fairly relaxing for me, as I stayed in the kitchen cooking most of the day. Mr. A spent several hours replacing a bypass hose on my 13 year old vehicle.

One of the recipes I made today is one I [CLICK TO CONTINUE...]

Yay – My Glasses are Being Replaced!

By Mrs. Accountability on February 13th, 2009

Back in August I blogged about how I fell into a pothole at one of the outlet malls in the big city. I tried calling back a few times, because my glasses were really scratched badly and I got the feeling they were just trying to wait me out. You know, if they never [CLICK TO CONTINUE...]

I Have To Go To The Dentist

By Mrs. Accountability on February 12th, 2009

I should really go to the dentist more often, but I just can’t bring myself to do it as often as my insurance plan allows which is one a year. My dentist told me at my last visit two or was it three? years ago that one of my molars needs a crown. He [CLICK TO CONTINUE...]

I Never Got My American Express $25 Rebate

By Mrs. Accountability on February 11th, 2009

Back in September I signed up for the American Express/Costco card and was looking forward to a $25 rebate with my first purchase. I’ve yet to see that credit. I called them about a month after my first purchase and they told me it sometimes takes up to 12 weeks to see that rebate. [CLICK TO CONTINUE...]
