About

My name is Lisa Thompson.  I have been married to my wonderful husband Fred for 6 years.  In 2007, our two beautiful daughters Amina (now 16)  and Khrystyna (now 13) joined our family through the blessing of adoption.  Life is never dull at our house!

I am passionate about my relationship with Jesus, my family, travel, shoes, purses, health & fitness, and saving money…not necessarily in that order.  We’ve learned to save on the everyday essentials so that we can splurge on the things that we love!

I am a lover of words… both spoken and written and can usually be found jabbering on the phone while blogging!  I enjoy seeing women reach their full potential and often blog about saving time, saving money, and saving sanity…three things that are essential for women!

When I began blogging, our family was well over $50,000 in debt (not including our house).  I am now thrilled to say that other than our house, we’re debt free!!!  I have been amazed at how God’s provision, coupled with discipline and hard work on our part, has made such a huge difference in our financial life, our family life, and our future endeavors.

I’d love to hear from you!  Comments and feedback are always welcome.

I have been hunting all over the place for your GFC (Google Friend Connect) button, but can’t find it. I know you said at the bottom of the page. Just can’t find it.

Dear Lisa,

I really enjoy your blog! I found it to be informative and helpful I– I also feel it helps me enhance my own ability to be independent by saving on everyday items via coupons!

Thank you,

Maria H.
