We have a stylized rendition of my mind, Billy, born Fitzwilliam but he’s really just a Billy, then Elinor Dashwood, who has become The Horse, and me, in my own mental image:  the straight woman, the comic foil, the clueless one.

EXISTENCE WELL EXECUTED

Na Na pinches her pennies

Shh... don't tell anyone I'm poor. They all think I'm living frugal and green just like everyone these days. This is a blog about a senior citizen living a frugal life, on a fixed income, in a low income food desert, and passing along knowledge from lessons learned. Some she learned from her Grandma Mama many years ago and some learned only a few days ago.
