It went a little differently. IT went kinda like this. 'Remember when we were young and beautiful and men did stuff for us for nuthin, just to win our favour...it sucks getting old' I think midlife is about the time I started using cash instead of barter. I no longer use credit either I believe cash is the only way to go! But then I havent much of that either so I am frugal out of neccessity. I do trade stuff with friends sometimes ...this jacket for those cool boots...that pair of earrings for those of mine I hardly wear. Usually with friends that are just as cash strapped as me.

I'd love to cook a meal in exchange for labor on car repairs. Becca,
