Today I am grateful for something complex and yet simple all in one. I’m thankful for all of the different means of travel we have access to. While waiting for my mom’s flight to arrive at the airport tonight, I realized I haven’t been to the airport since August when Asher and I traveled across the world together. I also realized just how easy it is to take for granted that we can literally travel anywhere in the world by boarding a plane. And we can easily travel throughout the U.S by jumping in our cars for a roadtrip. While I was in Ethiopia, I met with a a family friend who was telling me how he was unable to travel to one of the regions of Ethiopia because it was the rainy season and the unpaved roads were unsafe to drive on. It was going to be at least a few weeks before he would be able to travel to the region he needed to go to. When is the last time we haven’t been able to go somewhere here in the states because of weather conditions or unsafe roads? I’m thankful for it.

Thanks for coming to Addicted to Saving! Here’s a little bit about me so you can know who’s behind all these posts!
My name is Liza and I began my money-saving journey in the Spring of 2009 as a way to stretch a limited household income. I had lost my job and my hubby was self-employed. I launched Addicted to Saving in November of 2009 and it has grown by leaps and bounds. Since then, my hubby and I have struggled with the ups and downs of two failed adoptions and are now LOVING being parents to our little man Asher who we brought home from Ethiopia in August of 2013. I feel incredibly blessed to be able to help you save money. My goal is that you will have FUN and become empowered to save more and more money each week..
