Momo, I don't have a computer of my own, so I come to the library. Sometimes my brother will let me borrow his laptop for a couple days when he doesn't need it or else I go over where he is for a quick "fix".

Thanks for posting that! Long ago I was a member there, and I recall they had some very good suggestions. That was a few moves and a few Internet providers ago - don't have the email addy that I had back then, and I can't even remember what my log-in name was! blush

Ah well, I'll get a new name and see what is going on there.

ooopsie! Guess I should check my spelling. Thanks for getting it right. smile

Another one I sometimes go to is

www.frugalvillage.com/forums

One nice thing they do for members is email you if you haven't been there for a while to tell you you are missed. Kinda nice to be reminded.
