From Cath's Desk - May 2019

Hello Cheapskaters,

And welcome to the May edition of The Cheapskates Journal.

Please forgive this short note from me, but right now we are spending as much time as possible with my mother, as she nears the end of her life.

This is the woman who raised me, with my father until his death when I was 16, and then on her own. 

She held me when I cried. 

She cared for me when I was sick. 

She cheered for me at swim meets. She helped with my homework and projects. She waved me off to camps. She taught me to drive.

She taught me to cook, bake, preserve, sew, knit, crochet, garden, budget, be a good friend and neighbour.

And she taught me how to be a mother. 

Now it's my turn to care for her, so I hope you'll understand if I'm not so prompt at answering questions, or if newsletters are a little out of whack for a while. 

Emjoy this Journal and have a great month.
