Be fearful when others are greedy, and be greedy when others are fearful — Warren Buffett

Today you are you, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is youer than you.
Dr. Seuss

If you never did, you should. These things are fun, and fun is good.

So the writer who breeds more words than he needs, is making a chore for the reader who reads.

Allow me to state the obvious: the future is uncertain. I’m sure you’ve been watching the news, you know that the economy is unstable. Don’t panic! Right now is not a time to panic, instead this is a good time to make a plan, tighten up your belt, and exercise caution.

October is frugal living month here at Dandelions and Daydreams. The articles this month will help you tighten the budget and save some money. I challenge you to plan for the future by managing finances and stocking up on necessities to help prepare for whatever the future holds.

Over the next month, I’ll be testing frugal tips, posting tightwad recipes, and stocking up my pantry right along with you.

There is an old saying that goes:

“A woman can throw more out the back door with a teaspoon than her husband can bring in the front door with a wheelbarrow.”

It’s time to make sure we’ve put away that teaspoon and closed the back door.

The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer;
My God, my strength, in whom I will trust:
My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.
I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised;
So shall I be saved from my enemies.

Psalm 18:2-3.
