2 weeks ago I will be the first to admit that I can be indecisive. Certain decisions are really easy for women to make, like how many shoes to own and how many kids to have but if you ask us to pick out a new car, couch or paint color we can make life very difficult.

3 weeks ago Fathers Day is coming up and like most years, everything my husband wants is WAY out of my price range. He never seems to want anything that is in my price range.

I will admit that if we are shopping for a car I will get ripped off every time but if we are shopping for anything else my husband never even tries to negotiate
April 22, 2013 Sometimes tips are included on your ticket when you dine out and sometimes it isn't. I don't always look at the entire ticket when I pay at a restaurant.
