Moving to Ripley has reduced our expenditures quite a bit, so things being what they are with gas prices and all, I'm glad for the lower cost of living. But, having said that, Bob has lost over 30% of his retirement plan since May of this year. That hurts. And not being able to sell our house in Minnesota has taken its toll - one of the biggest reasons I went back to work. I have faith things will turn around, but not as quickly as I'd like. I was hoping for another trip to England next year, but I think that's on indefinate hold for now. I'm still saving my pennies (and quarters, dimes and nickels) for the day I can afford to see my British friends again. Till then, "stiff upper lip," and all that! |
