Frugal For Life

I don’t know which way the wind is blowing, but I can feel it changing directions. Right now it is whipping around from all sorts of directions; sometimes it is as calm as can be.

For the last 4 years, I have cruised along almost on auto-pilot and now I have run this vehicle into the ground. It is now time to take the path ahead in a different way.

I am speaking of is this blog, it will still move along, but at a much slower pace, more of a reflection on where my life is going. This means that I will post as the mood hits me. It will go back to more of the way I originally set it up, more of a personal blog for myself, with sites I find useful and things that entertain me.

I have found that my interests have changed over the last few years, I still look for the best way to lead my frugal life, but I am not really interested in how many people read it, or how much money it makes, it has become more of a personal plan of action.

I do want to say one thing to all those who have read this blog, both from the beginning or have recently found it, I mostly certainly DO appreciate your encouragement, ideas and constructive criticism over the years. I will be keeping the comments open for you to still do that.

+++++++++
This next week and the weeks that follow I will be posting guest writers articles (and links to their sites). You are more than welcome to send in a note that you would like posted to the site as well.

After that, (end of May -June) I will be slowing things down and moving things around on the site quite a bit in keeping with my more personal, frugal life.

I hope you all understand; this has been quite an experience, but my time among the “PF” bloggers has come to an end.
