West Virginia...Deliverance


Was set in Georgia, not West Virginia.
I lived in the D.C. area at the time. My wife came down with symptoms that could be attributed to anthrax. The post office that handled our mail was the one the letters went through. She had to be tested for anthrax. Luckily, the test was negative.

A footnote to retirement: It doesn't matter if you worked your full 40 quarters in the Social Security system. Once you become vested in the state's pension plan you automatically lose around half of whatever SS benefits you would have gotten had you done anything else but go to work for a state system which does not pay into the federal government's Ponzi scheme.


There seems to finally be some momentum to change this foolishness.

While this is true, if you combine this with a good concealed carry insurance policy that, at a minimum, provides for the cost of your defense, you are in a much better position.

Yes, in areas like day surgery centers, they will have multi-person restrooms.
I think its on Georges Lane.

Nvm. Its on Carol Court but is close.
I put up 4 Wyze cameras for about the price that one Ring floodlight was going to cost. Two of them are Wyze Camera V3s and two are Wyze floodlights. I love them so far.

They are Alexa enabled and I can watch them on my phone, iPad or FireTv.

Yes, I'm just tracking, not truly budgeting. I'm really just looking for a way to help my wife keep up with what she has spent. Apparently a pen and paper is too complex for her, so now we have a spreadsheet doing simple math for her.

I balance frequently, I really just need her to keep up with what she spends.

Thanks. I’ll check this one out. I’m really only looking for a step above a spreadsheet like the description says.

It’s just not a feature I need. I’m not trying to categorize expenses. I don’t need that level of detail. I’m just trying to track the total amount spent during a weekly period.

Thanks. I looked at it first and its more complex than what I need from what I can tell. Also, I don't want anything that connects to my bank.

Budgeting App

I’m looking for a simple app that my wife and I can use to track a weekly budget. Right now we are using Google Sheets because it can be shared. I simply put in the starting amount for the week, and we each enter our debits as we go. Since it is shared, we can both see what is left until the next period starts.

This is just for our daily living expenses, as I track our recurring bills separately. Everything I have seen on the App Store and Google Play is much too complex and unnecessary. I’m essentially looking for a check register feature similar to the old Microsoft Money program.

Cross-platform sharing is important since she is on Apple and I am Android.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
