I know how you feel Hon!!! We are not paying for our house, but our investments have taken a beating!! Some are still ok though!!!
Our biggest worry right now is that DH is retired from General Motors and there has been much talk of them going Bankrupt, so that would leave us in a terrible mess!!! My mom and Brother also recieve pentions from GM, so we are all being very careful right now!!! Everyone is saying GM will buy out Crysler, but it is all talk at this point!!! I hate to see anyone lose their jobs right now!!!!
Just know hon you are not alone!!!

I have been reading all of your messages. I think we are all doing just about the same things. Last week we went to Sam's club and spent $600. We have a 3 hour drive so we don't go all that often. We do make it worthwhile when we do go.
We are in a very rocky boat when it comes to the stock market. We are down so much that we don't even look at the statements. It is too darned scary. DH is retired and we are still paying on our house. That is something I don't like to think about.

No I don't think there is Apple!! They are almost set up the same too!!

I belonged to Sams before we moved, I belonged to both over the years and now rejoined Costco cause it is closer to us!!
