We are living off of one paycheck as I wait for my Permenant Residency to take place so we are learning to live life to the fullest on a tight budget. So sit back and stay awhile as I learn to create our home, indulge in my craftiness, figure out what it means to be a wife, discover how not to burn dinner and learn all of the little lessons that life throws my way.W.
