I looked at the articles on this site about "phantom energy" and I don't believe them. I saw a tremendous down in my electric bill and the Wall Street Journal is more respectable, I think. Those authors may be biased.

Lastly, are you offended by my education and stature or jealous? I think it is jealous, sorry, I worked very hard for my education, age, and savings. I do respect a SAHM. SAHM work very hard, because running a house is hard work. Cleaning, managing the funds, budgeting, getting the kids and the biggest kid to mind, getting the kids to school on time. So it really was unnessecary to try to put me down. Thanks. Besides: I am a healer and that is very respectable. I am proud of me and my accomplishments and wish you would be too. Imasaver was. Oh, I will be proud of you and encourage you in your endeavors. Or did I take it wrong? Was I being emotional?
