My life will always revolve around living a frugal lifestyle regardless of what you might think from the Shelterpop post on Frugal Fatigue.
The thing about writing for blogs other than your own is that they are altered and edited. That’s what happened to my post for AOL’s Shelterpop site where I discuss frugal fatigue. My post was altered, and readers are not happy. Listen, I love writing for Shelterpop, where many of you have found out about TFF. But this particular post sent a chill up my spine, so I’m using TFF to set the record straight.
Though I’m used to being bashed by comments from furious Shelterpop viewers, wow, this post takes the cake. And, it’s all because the original intent of my message was redefined. Instead of sounding like my frugal myself, I sound like a whining suburbanite who’s upset that I can’t afford a five thousand dollar sofa. That couldn’t be further from the truth.
The original message of my article was to state that although I’m frugal, and sometimes it can be frustrating, in the end, frugality is well-worth the effort! So, for all of those fabulous frugal readers who have read the Shelterpop post, please don’t trash me in comments there–I swear I’m still frugal and still love it!
ps: I can’t run the original article I wrote because of copyright issues. I don’t own the content of that post!
Thanks for your support,
Your still very frugal TFFer, Marilyn
