What Are You Saving Money For?

It's hard to believe we have been in our new house just over three years. 

When we moved in, the windows and doors were in pretty good shape (missing a few screens here and there on the top floor), but now it's time to start saving in earnest for new windows on the top floor only. The bottom level of our ranch-style house was already finished and done up to the nines. The top is stuck in 1992, which is fine if you don't mind hot air leaking out in the winter and cool air leaking out in the summer. I'm all about a lower electric bill (also dreaming of solar panels someday!).

I've heard that since the 2020 pandemic began, places like Home Depot and Lowe's have been bombarded with business. People are staying home, seeing all that's wrong with their home, and ready to roll on their home improvement projects!

So I'm saving money for new windows and travel, as well as dental work (always) and braces for two more of my kids. What are you saving money for?
