I am going to Washington with a group in September. They are also planning a trip either to Italy or Alaska, either would be AOK with me. I told hubby if he wants to take a 3-4 day trip to Vegas we could do that and finally if the Italy/Alaska trip fell through, I would go to the Canadian Rockies myself meeting up to tour with a group. I love traveling!!!

Gas prices hinder my trips, nope, got 3 planned for this year
Had planned 1 by air about 3 months ago and 2 others by chartered bus the end of the year so nope, prices are not hindering my traveling.
So, what's everybody got planned for the weekend?
I'll be working Saturday and Sunday, but I might have a few extra minutes to go to the fabric store. I'm going to try to finish a few UFOs (unfinished objects - sewing). And, I'll be stopping in here, of course. So, what's everybody else doing?
Planned Parenthood does GYN exams
They charge on a sliding scale and possibly could refer you to a specialist who might be willing to work with your financial situation. Go to their website and see if there is one near you.
I went to Planned Parenthood in college
They charged me $5 for the visit and $10 for 6 months worth of birth control pills. Name brand. Not too bad, so maybe she just hit a bad one.
Planned PArenthood began in 1916
Planned Parenthood is America's leading sexual and reproductive health care advocate and provider. Founded by Margaret Sanger in 1916 as America’s first birth control clinic, Planned Parenthood believes that everyone has the right to choose when or whether to have a child, that every child should be wanted and loved, and that women should be in charge of their destinies.
| Planned Parenthood affiliates nationwide provide sexual and reproductive health care, education, and information to millions of women, men, and teens in the United States each year. Three and a half million Planned Parenthood activists and supporters also serve as advocates for sexual and reproductive rights.
Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA), the national organization, is a world-renowned leader in reproductive rights and health. PPFA provides support to affiliates nationwide and addresses reproductive health needs in developing countries through our international programs and our membership in the International Planned Parenthood Federation.

My daughter definitely got the shaft from Planned Parenthood
Buyer Beware on Them! They advertise the so-called sliding scale, but when my full-time college student daughter went to them for BCPs, she ended up owing them over $150 and they still wanted something crazy every month for filling the pills too. She was making less than $30 per week at the time and was over 18 and she told them repeatedly that she didn't want to get her parents involved in it. At least they respected her wishes on not sending the bill to us instead! But she would have been far better off just going to a regular doctor and getting a regular prescription for generic something or other and taking it to Wal-Mart!
Planned Parenthood = MAJOR RIPOFF once you're out of high school!
I should mention that they gave her no hassle at all and charged her nothing when she was still in high school (in a different town). She went to PP in the college town thinking it would be the same deal. NOT! Apparently everything changes with them once you're considered old enough to be having sex. Kind of strikes me like offering drugs for free until the customer gets hooked.
Two trips this year...sm
Going to see my best friend in Oklahoma City in July (son will be at church came in the same area at that time). In November, we will be going to a family reunion in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Nothing really big, since money is so tight right now. Shoot, I'm hoping we will have enough to go on those two road trips.

Now I know why I went on all those exotic beach trips
when I was younger. My father used to fuss and fuss at me- I was traveling to the Carribean, Mexico, etc and he wondered why did I not visit the good ole USA. Now if only he were still here I could tell him. Now I am into visiting places that do not have the beach included- so glad I did those in my earlier years- did not mind showing those legs then!
I actually agree with you on that. I have taken trips by plane and bus alone and met really
interesting people actually more interesting than the people I go with sometimes. I just have never driven alone somewhere with no one to talk to on the road, etc. Just wondering about that part of it.
Yes...he tells me he is on fishing trips and that (sm)
there is no cell service there, so I can't call him, or reach him even if there was an emergency. And he does not call to check on us either.
garden, fewer trips to the store - sm
Watching the sale papers for really good deals and planning meals around those. Safeway and Albertsons usually have a few 10 for $10 sales every week. I will max out those sales on a couple items if we use a lot of them.
Trying to stretch a gallon of milk is getting more expensive too. Powdered milk is skyrocketing along with everything else but it still does make a gallon last a little longer so will keep doing that. We go through at least a gallon a day, sometimes more.
Telling the kids that I am not the local taxi service for their friends and cannot provide them transportation here and there all the time. My own kids will have to work harder to combine their schedules to cut back on needless trips too.
If one is one place and another somewhere else, I will only drop off or pick up ONCE.
Used to be that the kids would have me running 4-5 trips a day. No more. If they can't leave or be picked up at the same time, too bad.
Yes - weekend camping trips much closer to home. nm
