Hello Glowbies,
I originally aired this video on Saturday. I went in to add a different thumbnail and somehow deleted the entire video. π So, I am reposting it today. With grocery prices skyrocketing and no end in sight I went way back to pull up a meal.my mom used to make when she was trying to stretch the budget til the end of the month and still feed us k8ds hearty and tasty meals.
Potatoes was one of those staples that really stretched a meal. So, I am sharing one of my favorite what I call "hard time" meals. Under 60 cents a serving but filling and delicious. You can be as creative as you want tossing in whatever you have on hand, brocalli, spinach, or even cabbage to get a little green. Let me know in the comments if you want more of these "hard time meals" on a budget. And would you do me a big favor and share this video out to anyone you think could benefit from it. And while you're at it do give it a

Hello Glowbies,
I so regret to tell you I will not be doing
Glow Live today. I have been on the road ajd in Palm Springs. Where I am currently I do not have the best internet connection among other challenges. However, I was able, yesterday to upload a video that will air shortly, a delicious simple 3 ingredient meal for under 60 cents a serving. Depression era meal like mom used to make back in the day.
Hopefully, I will be able to book Medicare expert Wednesday to answer some questions before thr Medicare sugn up deadline as there have been so many changes and dropped options for 2026. I will keep you posted. β€β€β€β€

Herkimer Glowbies,
The shutdown has come to an end. But has anyone actually benefitted aside from politicians?,Yes, federal employees who were used as pawns will be getting their jobs back and those furloughed and working without pay will get their back pay. Food stamp recipients will finally get their cards refreshed so they can feed their families. All this suffering by regular folks to satisfy the egos of fat cats in Washington can Illinois be massaged and millions may still lose their medical coverage. It is a disgrace!
Let me know inbrh4 comments what what you think after watching this video. Do you agree or disagree? Do you have any suggestions on how to get out of this mess?

Hello Glowbies,
In my past video I shared with you that I am planning to obtain a permanent visa for another country in which I intend to spend at least several months every year. Many of you shared in the comments on that video that you would also like to move to another country, at least part-time or maybe even for good. But so many of you felt that was an impossible dream because you live on a very modest social security income only. Well, in this video I share five ways you can fulfill your drram of living abroad by supplementing your income while living in another country.

At the end of the video I also share an dea on how to possibly even obtain another $400-$800 dollars per.month to help buy food if needed.

Hello Glowbies,
I believe things are getting ready to get even more ugly in these American streets due to the government shutdown. As millions of parents are about to not able to feed their children and many seniors, veterans and disabled folks who depend on food stamps are also unable to buy groceries because those trifling bums in Congress won't get off their behinds and do their job and pass a budget, I think some folks are going to.say enough and rise up and show out. What do you think? Am I way off base or is that a distinct possibility? Let me know what you think in the comments.

Hello Glowbies,
Above is a link to the video I aired today. It is part 2 of my interview with Jackie, a 60 yr old female who has been living in cars or suvs for 14 years!
In part , if you haven't seen it, Jackie shares how she lives in her vehicle on a budget of only $500 per month. In today's video Jackie gives a tour of the very minimal no build set up in her vehicle and shares some of her favorite equipment and gadgets that help her to be able to live in her SUV boondocking fulltime in a city setting. I would love it if you would share this video out, especially to anyone you know who is interested in van life or might be forced to move into a vehicle because of the astronomical rise in the cost of living. If you happen to be in that situation and want to share some of your story you can do so in the comment section. Or reach out to me at
